What languages are spoken at the market?

Quick answer

  • Primarily Dutch; some vendors may speak English.
The primary language spoken by vendors and visitors at the Saint Spijkenisse Market is Dutch. However, given the Netherlands' high English proficiency, many vendors, especially younger ones, will likely speak some English. It is always helpful to know a few basic Dutch phrases ('Goedendag' for hello, 'Dank u wel' for thank you) but communication for simple transactions should be manageable even for non-Dutch speakers.
