at have lyst til

to feel like/have a desire for

معنی

Wanting to do or eat something.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

The phrase is central to 'Hygge'. If you don't 'have lyst' to do something, it's not hyggeligt, and Danes will rarely force it. Managers often ask if employees 'have lyst' to do a task to encourage flat hierarchy and personal motivation. Parents often focus on 'lyst til læring' (desire to learn) rather than strict discipline. It is culturally acceptable to say 'Jeg har ikke lyst' without a long explanation, reflecting Danish directness.

💡

The 'At' Rule

If you can put 'to' in English (I want TO sleep), use 'at' in Danish (lyst til AT sove).

⚠️

Avoid 'Lyst på'

This is the #1 mistake for German and Norwegian speakers. Stick to 'til'!

Polite Declining

Add 'faktisk' (actually) or 'rigtig' (really) to 'Jeg har ikke lyst' to sound softer.

Social Glue

Use this phrase often! It makes you sound much more like a local than using 'Jeg vil'.
