Zodra de cursor weer werkt, klik ik op het kleine icoon rechtsboven.

Because zodra introduces a subordinate clause. In Dutch, the conjugated verb usually goes to the end of a subordinate clause.

• Zodra de cursor weer werkt
• literally: as soon as the cursor again works

This is a very common Dutch pattern:

• Als ik tijd heb = If I have time
• Omdat hij ziek is = Because he is ill
• Wanneer het regent = When it rains

So the final werkt is normal Dutch word order after zodra.

Dutch is a verb-second language in main clauses. That means the conjugated verb must come in the second position.

Here, the sentence starts with the subordinate clause:

• Zodra de cursor weer werkt, ...

That whole clause takes the first position. So in the main clause, the verb must come next:

• ..., klik ik op het kleine icoon rechtsboven.

This is called inversion.

Compare:

• Ik klik op het icoon.
• Morgen klik ik op het icoon.
• Zodra de cursor weer werkt, klik ik op het icoon.

So klik ik is required here.

Zodra means as soon as.

It is more specific than:

• als = if / when
• wanneer = when

Zodra emphasizes that something happens immediately after something else becomes true.

So:

• Zodra de cursor weer werkt, klik ik... means
• As soon as the cursor works again, I click...

If you used wanneer, it would sound more neutral:

• Wanneer de cursor weer werkt... = When the cursor works again...

If you used als, it could mean if or when, depending on context.

Here weer means again.

So:

• de cursor werkt weer = the cursor works again

It often appears in sentences about something returning to a previous state:

• Hij is weer thuis = He is home again
• De computer doet het weer = The computer is working again

Be careful: weer can also mean weather, but that is a different word in meaning, even though it is spelled the same.

In Dutch, the verb is klikken op something.

So:

• op een knop klikken = to click on a button
• op het icoon klikken = to click on the icon

This works much like English click on.

In everyday Dutch, some people may say just een knop aanklikken or het icoon aanklikken, where aanklikken is a separable verb meaning to click/select.

So these are both possible:

• Ik klik op het icoon.
• Ik klik het icoon aan.

Your sentence uses the very common pattern klikken op.

Because in Dutch, adjectives usually take an -e ending before a noun.

So:

• het kleine icoon = the small icon

The basic adjective is klein, but before the noun it becomes kleine here.

Some quick examples:

• de grote knop = the big button
• het nieuwe venster = the new window
• een klein icoon = a small icon
• het kleine icoon = the small icon

The rules for adjective endings can be a bit detailed, but in this sentence kleine is exactly what you should expect.

Dutch nouns have grammatical gender/categories, usually taught as de-words and het-words.

• de cursor
• het icoon

You often just have to learn which article belongs with each noun.

This matters because it affects:

• the article: de or het
• pronouns later: often hij/hem for many de-words, het for het-words
• adjective patterns in some cases

So in your sentence:

• de cursor = correct
• het icoon = correct

Rechtsboven means top right or in the upper-right corner.

In interface or location language, Dutch often combines direction words into one word:

• rechtsboven = top right
• linksboven = top left
• rechtsonder = bottom right
• linksonder = bottom left

So:

• het kleine icoon rechtsboven means
• the small icon at the top right

It is functioning like a location description.

Because the sentence begins with a subordinate clause:

• Zodra de cursor weer werkt, ...

In Dutch, a subordinate clause placed before the main clause is normally separated by a comma.

So the structure is:

• subordinate clause + comma + main clause

Examples:

• Als ik klaar ben, ga ik naar huis.
• Omdat het regent, blijf ik binnen.
• Zodra de cursor weer werkt, klik ik op het kleine icoon rechtsboven.

Yes, grammatically you could. But the meaning changes slightly.

• Zodra de cursor weer werkt = as soon as the cursor works again
• Wanneer de cursor weer werkt = when the cursor works again

Zodra sounds more immediate and procedural, which fits instructions very well. It suggests: the moment this happens, do the next step.

That makes zodra especially natural in technical instructions like this one.

In Dutch, the simple present often covers both ideas, depending on context.

So de cursor werkt weer can mean:

• the cursor works again
• the cursor is working again

In English, is working again may sound more natural in this situation, but Dutch simply uses the present tense werkt.

This is very common in Dutch:

• De printer doet het weer. = The printer is working again.
• Mijn internet werkt niet. = My internet isn’t working.

Yes, it sounds natural, especially in a step-by-step or help-guide context.

It has a typical instructional flow:

1. wait for condition X
2. do action Y

• Zodra de cursor weer werkt, klik ik...

In a manual or direct instruction to another person, you would more often see:

• Zodra de cursor weer werkt, klikt u op het kleine icoon rechtsboven.
• Zodra de cursor weer werkt, klik je op het kleine icoon rechtsboven.

Your sentence uses ik klik, so it sounds like the speaker is describing their own action: As soon as the cursor works again, I click...

Usually in this kind of sentence, rechtsboven comes after the noun phrase:

• het kleine icoon rechtsboven

That is the most natural order for describing location here.

You would not normally say:

• het rechtsboven kleine icoon

That sounds wrong in standard Dutch.

So think of rechtsboven here as a location tag added after the noun:

• the small icon — top right
