A2 Expression ニュートラル

Det er en stor fejl

It is a big mistake

意味

A significant error.

🌍

文化的背景

Danes value honesty. If you make a 'stor fejl', it is better to admit it immediately than to hide it. This builds trust. The phrase is a staple in political debates. It is used to signal that a policy will have negative consequences for the welfare state. In Danish schools, mistakes are seen as part of the learning process. However, a 'stor fejl' usually refers to a lack of preparation. Danes can be very direct. If you ask for an opinion on a risky move, don't be surprised if they use this phrase without softening it.

If 'stor' isn't enough, use 'kæmpe' (giant). 'Det er en kæmpe fejl!'

⚠️
