معنی
Being noticeable or prominent.
زمینه فرهنگی
Estonians value 'tagasihoidlikkus' (modesty). Standing out is good if it's based on results, but bad if it's based on bragging. Similar to the Law of Jante, there is a cultural pressure not to think you are better than others, which affects how 'silma paistma' is perceived. In the Estonian startup scene (Skype, Wise), 'silma paistma' is the ultimate goal for a new product. Estonian schools emphasize individual achievement in Olympiads, where students are encouraged to 'silma paista'.
Use with 'poolest'
If you want to sound more natural, use the structure '[Noun] + poolest'. E.g., 'Ta paistab silma julguse poolest'.
Don't say 'silmas'
Remember, it's 'silma' (into the eye). 'Silmas' means 'inside the eye', which sounds like a medical condition!
