The word of 19 November 2025 was:

in zijn schoen krijgen

in zijn schoen krij·gen (uitdrukking)
= to receive as a present in one's shoe

in = in
zijn = his
schoen = shoe
krijgen = to get, to receive

In the Sinterklaas period from mid November to early December, children may receive small presents like candy or toys in their shoes in the morning. This typically follows the singing of Sinterklaas songs the night before, when children may also have put a wish list and/or a carrot or other snacks for the horse of Sinterklaas in their shoes.
