معنی
To be naturally talented at something.
زمینه فرهنگی
The phrase is most famously linked to skiing. Norwegians often joke that they are born with skis on their feet, implying that winter sports are part of their biological makeup. In Sami traditions, knowledge of reindeer herding and nature is often described as something passed down through generations, effectively 'in the blood'. In fishing communities along the coast, the ability to navigate the sea and handle a boat is seen as an inherited trait. The phrase is now frequently used for modern skills like coding or gaming among the younger generation.
Use for compliments
This is a great way to compliment a Norwegian person's skill without sounding like you're over-flattering them.
Don't use for bad habits
While possible, saying someone has 'laziness in their blood' is very insulting and sounds permanent.
