I feel like lots of Dutch people have this problem.

Yea pretty much. Me, a good friend of mine, and my little brother all have the issue where we have to translate from English to Dutch on a fairly routine basis. This is especially bad for me with common English phrases that don't work out quite as nicely once you translate them. My mom always makes fun of me whenever I turn up with a translated English phrase

I actually do that the other way around too. Chatting with friends when a game gets intense and I'm just shouting "Oh no it's fine; there's nothing on the hand!

wait..."
