意思
Expressing delight or happiness.
文化背景
The Dutch use 'leuk' for almost everything. It's part of the 'polder model' of keeping things pleasant and avoiding conflict. In Flanders, people might use 'leuk', but 'plezant' or 'fijn' are also very common and sometimes preferred. On Instagram, 'Wat leuk!' is the most common comment. It's often shortened to just 'Leuk!' or 'Leuk hoor!'. Even in job interviews, a recruiter might say 'Wat leuk dat je er bent' to put the candidate at ease.
The 'Safe' Reaction
If you don't know what to say in Dutch when someone tells you something positive, 'Wat leuk!' is always a safe and polite choice.
Avoid 'Hoe leuk'
Even though English says 'How nice', 'Hoe leuk' sounds very strange to Dutch ears in an exclamation.
