Bedeutung
To accept the danger of a negative outcome.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Danes often use 'at løbe en kalkuleret risiko'. This reflects the cultural value of being sensible and prepared, even when doing something daring. The 'Law of Jante' (Janteloven) can sometimes make people hesitant to 'løbe en risiko' that makes them stand out too much from the crowd. In Danish startups, 'fail fast' is a popular concept, encouraging entrepreneurs to 'løbe risici' early on to learn quickly. Young Danes talk about 'social risiko'—the risk of posting something that isn't 'cool' or 'hyggeligt' enough.
Use 'kalkuleret'
Adding 'kalkuleret' (calculated) before 'risiko' makes you sound like a native professional.
Don't say 'tage'
Even though you hear it, stick to 'løbe' to pass exams and sound more authentic.
