Learn Dutch: We hebben nog een deadline te bespreken. - We still have a deadline to discuss.

While moeten means you are obligated to do something, the hebben + te + infinitive structure focuses on having a specific task on your plate. It works almost exactly like English: We hebben een deadline te bespreken translates perfectly to 'We have a deadline to discuss'.

Why does te bespreken go at the very end of the sentence?

In Dutch, the te + infinitive part of this structure is pushed to the end of the clause. You place the object you possess (een deadline) before the action you need to perform on it.

What exactly does nog add to this sentence?

Here, nog means 'still' or 'left'. It shows that discussing the deadline is a remaining task on your agenda. Without it, the sentence just means 'We have a deadline to discuss', but adding nog gives the feeling of 'We still have a deadline to discuss' before we can finish.

Is deadline considered a normal Dutch word?

Yes, Dutch has adopted many English business terms. Deadline is extremely common in the Netherlands and Flanders. It is treated as a normal Dutch noun that takes the article de (de deadline).
