Bedeutung
Being thankful for something.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Norwegians often use 'sette pris på' to avoid being overly emotional while still being very sincere. It fits the 'low-key' Norwegian personality. In Norwegian workplaces, this phrase is used to give 'soft' feedback and build team spirit without sounding like a traditional boss. When invited to a 'dugnad' (community work), using this phrase for those who show up is essential for social harmony.
Add 'stor' for impact
If you want to sound more sincere, always add 'stor' (big) before 'pris'. It's the most common way to intensify the phrase.
Don't forget 'på'!
Without 'på', you are literally saying you are pricing someone, like a slave or a product. Always include 'på'!
