B1 Expression ニュートラル

å sette pris på innsatsen

to appreciate the effort

意味

To acknowledge someone's hard work.

🌍

文化的背景

The 'Dugnad' culture makes this phrase essential. Because people are expected to work for free for their community, 'setting price on the effort' is the only payment they receive. Norwegian workplaces are flat. A CEO will use this phrase with a janitor, and vice versa. It reinforces equality. In youth sports, 'innsats' is often valued over winning. Coaches use this phrase to build confidence in children. When receiving this compliment, the standard Norwegian response is a modest 'Bare hyggelig' (My pleasure) or 'Skulle bare mangle' (It was the least I could do).

🎯

Add 'virkelig'

To sound more sincere and less like a robot, add 'virkelig' (really) or 'stor' (great). 'Jeg setter virkelig stor pris på innsatsen.'

⚠️

Don't overdo it

If you say this for every small thing, it loses its value. Save it for things that actually required 'innsats'.
