意味
To take action to satisfy requirements or demands.
文化的背景
In Italy, 'andare incontro' is a sign of 'buona volontà' (goodwill). It is often expected that the first offer in a negotiation is just a starting point, and both parties will 'go toward' each other. The 'mammone' stereotype often involves parents 'going toward' every need of their children, even into adulthood. This phrase is used to describe that constant adaptation. There is a common complaint in Italy that the 'burocrazia' (bureaucracy) never 'va incontro' to the citizen. Using this phrase in a letter to an official is a polite way to ask for flexibility. The concept of 'Su Misura' (Bespoke) is the ultimate physical manifestation of 'andare incontro alle esigenze.' The product literally moves to fit the person.
The 'Ti vengo incontro' trick
In a negotiation, use 'Ti vengo incontro' to sound generous. It makes the other person feel like you are doing them a personal favor.
Don't forget the 'A'
The most common mistake is saying 'andare incontro le esigenze'. You MUST have the 'a' (contracted to 'alle').
