A2 Collocation خنثی

olla ylpeä jostakin

to be proud of something

معنی

To feel satisfaction regarding an achievement.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

Finns value 'vaatimattomuus' (modesty). While 'olla ylpeä' is positive, bragging (ylpeillä) is often looked down upon. Pride is usually expressed quietly. In Sami culture, pride is often linked to heritage, reindeer herding, and the preservation of the Sami languages. It is a collective pride. In the modern startup scene (like Slush), pride is expressed more openly and 'American-style' to encourage innovation. Finns are intensely proud of their 'Sisu' in sports, especially in ice hockey and winter sports.

💡

The -sta Rule
