معنی
To make someone interested in something.
زمینه فرهنگی
In German universities, 'Neugier' is considered the primary requirement for a student. Professors often say that their job is not to teach facts, but to 'Neugier wecken'. Shows like 'Sendung mit der Maus' or 'Terra X' are famous for their ability to 'Neugier wecken' across all age groups, using mystery to explain complex science. German ads often use 'Teaser' campaigns that reveal very little information initially, specifically designed to 'Neugier wecken' before a big product launch. While 'Neugier wecken' is positive, being 'zu neugierig' (too curious/nosy) is often seen as a breach of 'Privatsphäre' (privacy) in Germany.
Use with Possessives
It sounds most natural when you say 'meine/deine Neugier wecken' rather than just 'Neugier wecken'.
Don't use 'aufwecken'
Even though 'aufwecken' is common for people, for curiosity, stick to 'wecken'.
