Description: Do you have to visit the IND, are your children doing VWO and do you live in a Vinex area? Can you recognise BN`ers and do you know BOB? Have you got a DigiD and are you paying OZB? If this all sounds like double Dutch, then you need this book. Based on the popular column on the Dutch News website and newspaper, A Dictionary of Dutchness is a handy-sized paperback with over 200 short and snappy entries which unravel the acronyms, abbreviations and jargon of everyday life in the Netherlands.
