معنی
If you don't object, you agree.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Norwegian work culture, consensus is key. This proverb is often used to 'flush out' any hidden disagreements before a project starts. The 'Law of Jante' influences this; people might be hesitant to speak up, so the proverb serves as a necessary push to encourage vocal dissent. While the proverb is famous, Norwegian law generally requires 'active consent' for contracts, making the proverb more of a social rule than a legal one today. In the highly digitized Norwegian society, this proverb is frequently applied to 'thumbs up' culture in apps like Slack and Teams.
Use it to close a deal
It's a great way to finalize a plan in a group of Norwegians who might be too polite to say 'yes' out loud.
Don't be too aggressive
Using this in a serious argument can sound like you are bullying the other person into agreement.

سوالات متداول
10 سوالNo, it is primarily a social proverb. In modern law, silence is rarely considered binding consent.
Yes, but be careful. It's better to use it when the boss is the one being silent, or as a lighthearted joke.
There isn't a direct opposite proverb, but one might say 'Taushet betyr ikke nødvendigvis samtykke' (Silence doesn't necessarily mean consent).
It is slightly formal. In everyday speech, people often say 'å være stille' or 'å ikke si noe'.
Very much so! It's often used when someone doesn't reply to a group invite.
You can, and people will understand you, but 'tier' is the traditional and most common form.
Because it separates a relative clause ('Den som tier') from the main verb ('samtykker').
It can be if used to silence someone, but usually, it's just a way to confirm a consensus.
Focus on the 'y' sound—it's the hardest part for English speakers. Think of it as a tight 'ee' with rounded lips.
Yes, though the form might be 'Den som tegjer, samtykkjer'.
