Apa arti “nooit meer” dalam bahasa Belanda?

Nooit meer combines nooit (never) with meer (more). The phrase doubles down on permanence: not just "never" but "never again." A Dutch person who's been burned by a service can say nooit meer and the listener understands they're not going back. A Dutch friend swearing off a substance, an ex, or a particular bar will say nooit meer.

The phrase sits at the strongest end of negation-temporal scale. Dutch handles ended states with niet meer (no longer); nooit meer takes that ended-state framing and absolutizes it. The thing won't return. Dutch parents say it about behaviors they're banning; Dutch lovers say it about exes they're done with; Dutch travelers say it about hotels that disappointed them.

A subtle Dutch register note: nooit meer is often used loosely in spoken Dutch as emphasis rather than literal eternity. A Dutch teen swearing they'll nooit meer eat a particular food is making a strong claim, not a binding contract. Dutch listeners read the hyperbole correctly.
