Bedeutung
To establish oneself in a situation.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Norwegians value 'trygghet' (security) and 'å etablere seg' (to settle down). The concept of 'Janteloven' sometimes makes people humble about their success, so 'få fotfeste' is a modest way to describe success.
Context is key
Use it when talking about long-term progress, not short-term tasks.
