Do you also have expressions in your language or maybe another language, that are difficult to say in English?
Here are some examples:
learn by doing
leren door te doen / leren door doen en begeren (I came up with this sentence myself)
学以致用
pay attention to me, will you?
let even op mij, wil je?
理我,可以吗?
at the bottom of / underneath
aan de onderkant van / beneden (the country the Netherlands is under sea level, neder in Dutch means under)
在....底下
at the same time
terzelfdertijd
顺便
We have such a good understanding
We hebben zo'n goede verstandhouding
我们这么有默契

I just ran through them quickly, but noticed the last translation is not so natural. You can, for example, translate it to "We have good rapport".
Good job! How long have you been learning Dutch? :)

顺便 可以有at the same time 的意思。
可是感覺好像不夠到位?你覺得呢?:)
