As a German, I enjoy reading the Dutch text on supermarket products and manuals, it is a source of great fun in my family :) Children especially love it. Dutch just has so many words that sound extremely cute and funny to Germans:

"Sleep well" -> "Slaap lekker", in German "Schlaf lecker" = "Sleep tasty".

"Nuttig" -> "Useful", in German "nuttig" means "slutty"

"Huren" -> "to rent", in German "huren" means "to whore".

"Oorbellen" -> "earrings", "ear bells".

It’s the same for me, a Brit, reading screenshots my Dutch mates send me from say TikTok or whatever localized to Netherlands one that tickles me is ‘reacties’ underneath instagram posts!
