Dutch Translation Services in India

Preface

Dutch originated from the West Germanic language and is spoken by over 22 million people as their native tongue. Most of the Dutch speaking population is concentrated in Netherlands, Suriname and Belgium, while small numbers in United States and Canada also speak Pennsylvania Dutch.

The Dutch language has evolved from the source Proto-German, which is also the root for present day English and German languages. The modern Dutch has three distinct dialects which are substantially different from each other. People who speak Dutch are characterized by using compound words and creating new words by combining or uniting two separate words.

Afrikaans, which is extensively spoken in South Africa, also evolved from Dutch language in the 17th century. It is still used as the lingua franca in Namibia along with being extensively used in judicial system and politics of South Africa.

About Dutch Language

The Dutch culture of doing business is considered a very formal and reserved affair. The respect for their personal space and thought process is considered a vital part of the Dutch business etiquettes.

Netherlands has an egalitarian social setup where people expect their opinions to be heard and decisions reached at by consensus. Few business tips while dealing with your Dutch counterparts are:

  • Use of rational arguments with facts to back them up and refrain from making emotional ones.
  • Dutch like to come to the point directly with hardly any small talk. It is better to refrain from it while dealing with your Dutch associates.
  • Be punctual and in case you can’t, call up and inform. Failure to do so might make you seem untrustworthy.
  • Use of exaggerated speech and gestures is a strict no-no as the Dutch revere Modesty and such extravagances are seen in bad taste.
  • Shake hands when introduced with all in the group, including children if there are any.
  • Pay attention to details
  • Keep your conduct professional and don’t ask any personal questions as this is considered outright rude behavior.
  • Dutch people expect directness in their dealings, be prepared to expect a clear YES or a NO in your business interactions with them.
  • Honesty
  • Integrity
  • Tolerance
  • Self control
  • Privacy
  • Egalitarianism
