معنی
To feel irritated or angry.
زمینه فرهنگی
Complaining (valittaminen) is a social bonding tool. Saying 'ottaa päähän' about the weather is a way to start a friendly conversation. In Finnish offices, people are quite direct. It's common to hear 'ottaa päähän' when a project is delayed, but it's usually not directed at a person. Younger Finns often shorten the phrase to just 'ottaa päähä' or use variations like 'ottaa kupoliin' to sound more urban. The 'Grumpy Old Man' (Mielensäpahoittaja) character in Finnish literature is the master of things 'taking to the head'.
Use 'Mua'
In real life, almost everyone says 'Mua ottaa päähän' instead of 'Minua ottaa päähän'.
Avoid with Bosses
Unless you have a very relaxed relationship, use 'harmittaa' with your superior.
