Traffic: Dutch people take the bike more ofthen then in most countries.

Language: Because Dutch people do not expect people from other countries to speak their language, they learn other languages from a young age. Most dutch people speak english. French and German are also languages many Dutch people speak or understand.

Eating: Mostly know for their liquorice, cheese. Less common but a real Dutch treat is "bitterballen" (bitter balls) its meat that has been fried.

Culture: Dutch language has words that make a sentence a lot less harsh/direct. Because those words can not so easely be used in a English sentence, the Dutch tend to leave those words out. This has the effect that dutch people can come across as a little rude/direct. This has also got to do with the high apreciation dutch people have for honasty. Asking a Dutch person what you think of something personal (like what you are wearing), be prepared! The answer will almost never be like, Thats real great! if they trully like it, they can just say: Its nice. Exaggerating is not a thing Dutch people like to do. They have a saying: Doe normaal dan doe je al gek genoeg (act normal than you are acting crazy enough). This saying is seen in many aspects of the Dutch culture.

Sorry for the bad spelling and the lack of exaples but these are some things the Dutch are known for.
