Dutch term or phrase: voor (in contesto)
Contesto: storia di una bambina, raccontata dalla mamma

La bambina era di indole tranquilla e ze keek meestal even de kat uit de boom. Als ze zich ergens lekker voelde, was ze overal *voor* in.

Non capisco il significato di 'voor' e quindi neanche l'espressione, grazie !

Explanation:
"voor iets In zijn", era disposta favorevolmente a qualsiasi iniziativa (sempre che si sentisse bene, a suo agio). Prima osservavo ben bene le cose - de kat uit de boom kijken -poi ecc.
