Misunderstanding each other during conversation.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
In Norway, directness is valued, but so is avoiding unnecessary conflict. Using this phrase is a socially acceptable way to 'reset' a conversation without blaming the other person's intelligence. In American business culture, 'talking past each other' is often seen as a sign of inefficiency. Americans might use the phrase 'not being on the same page' more frequently. Japanese culture values 'reading the air' (kuuki wo yomu). 'Talking past each other' is often avoided by using vague language, but when it happens, it's seen as a significant social failure. The British might use 'at cross purposes' to describe this, often with a touch of polite understatement.
