This is the 1356th most frequent Dutch word.


reet

"Reet" in Dutch is a slang term for "butt" or "rear end."


Here, 'reet' is used colloquially to refer to the backside or buttocks of the dog, in a general descriptive manner.

De hond zat met zijn reet op het gras.

The dog sat with its bottom on the grass.


Here, 'reet' colloquially exaggerates a lack of visibility, emphasizing the complete absence of sight.

Hij reed door de smalle weg zonder een reet te zien.

He drove through the narrow road without seeing a thing.


In this context, 'reet' expresses indifference or lack of concern in a colloquial and perhaps slightly informal tone.

Wat maakt het uit? Dat boeit geen reet!

What does it matter? That doesn't interest me at all!
