I agree pretty much with AnnaC on the first few lists.
On the last list, phrases that i hear people say:
- que sera sera
- renaissance
- ragout
- señor etc.
- s'il vous plait
- summa cum laude
- tapas
- veni, vidi, vici
- voila
- wunderbar
- wurst
- Weihnachten

I do understand most of the words posted on all the lists (not all!) but this is because I also speak some German, French and Spanish. But most of them I never encounter when just speaking normal dutch (so my list of words not being used is a lot longer than ggrande! Although we do use auf wiedersehen here, but I live kinda close to the German border, that probably has something to do with it.
