خلفية ثقافية
The French often use 'avoir une petite idée' to sound modest or to suggest they are onto something without being boastful. In Quebec, you might hear 'C'est une bonne idée' used as a filler of agreement, similar to 'That's a good point'. In some regions, 'avoir une idée' can be used more broadly to mean 'to be aware' or 'to be informed' about a situation.
