意思
Setting a meeting place.
文化背景
Dutch people are known for their 'Agenda-cultuur'. It is very common to 'afspreken' weeks in advance, even for a simple coffee. Spontaneity is less common than in Southern Europe. In Flanders, 'afspreken' is also used, but people might be slightly more spontaneous than in the Netherlands. The phrase remains the same. Dutch cities are centered around a 'Grote Markt' or 'Centrum'. When you say 'in de stad', everyone knows you mean this central, walkable area. If you 'spreekt af', it is considered rude to be late. The Dutch value punctuality highly, even for casual meetings in the city.
The 'Met' Rule
When using 'afspreken' with a person, always use 'met'. Example: 'Ik spreek af MET mijn zus'.
Don't forget 'DE'
Saying 'in stad' sounds like a robot. Always say 'in DE stad'.
