Phrases utiles
Kattuks language
The 'wurft', or boulevard, is the pride of Katwijk aan zee. But make sure you don't walk the 'skobbeldedonk' (walk of shame), then it is better to buy new clothes in the nearby 'durp' or the village. In Katwijks this does not mean the entire village, but only the pleasant shopping center just behind the boulevard surrounding the white church.
At the fishmonger you can order a tasty portion 'garrend' - this is the local term for shrimp. Other expressions to remember are the 'koffie is boâl' (the coffee is ready), 'striempje cake' (a slice of cake) and 'k heb kik en bun' (I'm full).
