Signification
Continuing life after an event.
Contexte culturel
The concept of 'fremdrift' (forward motion) is central to Danish work culture. Being 'stuck' is seen as a lack of efficiency. There is a shared cultural value of 'pragmatic resilience'. You acknowledge the problem, but you don't dwell on it longer than necessary. In Danish social media, 'videre' is often used as a one-word comment to dismiss drama or irrelevant arguments. Danes are often very direct. If someone says they have 'kommet videre', they usually mean they are genuinely ready to date again.
The 'Være' Rule
Always remember that 'komme videre' describes a change of state, so use 'er' (to be) instead of 'har' (to have) in the past tense.
Don't be too blunt
Telling a Dane 'Kom videre!' can sound like you're telling them to 'Shut up and move on.' Use it carefully.
