I'm studying the Dutch language. I've heard 'werk ze' and I can somewhat understand the post but not enough to get what it actually means. What is 'werk ze' supposed to actually mean and where is it used?
It would literally translate to "work them". This construct is often used when wishing someone well or comfort during an activity. I think it might be comparable to the them in "show them who's boss", but even more vague.
An interesting Dutch article can be found at OnzeTaal.nl, but that might be more text than you wished for.
If not: lees ze!
Dank je voor deze artikelen. Ik ben tevreden dat ik kan deze soort berichten verstaan, maar moet ik misschien meer Nederlands praten en lezen om het te verbeteren.
