معنی
Stating that one is not sick.
زمینه فرهنگی
Estonians often use the greeting 'Tervist!' (Health!). It is a partitive form of 'tervis'. It shows that health is the most valued wish you can give someone. The 'terve nagu purikas' (healthy as a burbot) idiom reflects Estonia's coastal and lake-rich geography. Fish are seen as symbols of cold-hardy, slippery health. Sauna culture is deeply linked to being 'terve'. A common saying is 'Saun on vaese mehe arst' (The sauna is the poor man's doctor). Estonians are generally private about illness. Saying 'Ma olen terve' is often a way to end a conversation about health and move on to other topics.
The 'Whole' Rule
If 'terve' is before a noun (terve kook), it means 'whole'. If it's after 'olen' (ma olen terve), it usually means 'healthy'.
Don't say 'Ma olen tervis'
This is like saying 'I am health'. Always use the adjective 'terve'.
