Vigu tegema

To make mistakes

意味

Doing something incorrectly.

🌍

文化的背景

In Estonian schools, mistakes are treated as data points. The phrase 'Vigadest õpitakse' is ingrained from kindergarten. Estonians value 'otsekohesus' (directness). If you make a mistake, it's best to admit it immediately with 'Ma tegin vea' rather than making excuses. Estonians are very proud of their complex language (14 cases!). They are extremely forgiving of foreigners who 'teevad vigu' and will usually encourage you. In the 'Silicon Valley of Europe', 'vigu tegema' is part of the 'fail fast' mentality. Coding errors are just 'bugid' (bugs).

💡

Don't be afraid!

Estonians respect effort. Making a mistake while trying to speak is better than staying silent.

⚠️

Case matters

Remember to use 'vea' for a finished mistake and 'vigu' for general ones. Using 'viga' in the past tense sounds like 'I did a fault' (incomplete).

Use 'ikka'

Add 'ikka' (still/anyway) to sound more native: 'Ma teen ikka vigu' (I still make mistakes).

No, it can be for anything from a tiny typo to a major life error.

No! That means 'I am a mistake'. Always use 'ma tegin vea' (I made a mistake).

The nominative plural is 'vead', but with 'tegema', we usually use the partitive plural 'vigu'.

In Estonia, it's usually seen as helpful, especially in a learning or work context.

You can say 'Ma tegin trükivea' or 'See oli näpuviga'.
