意味
To be deeply affected by something.
文化的背景
Slovenians value 'skromnost' (modesty). If someone praises you, taking it 'k srcu' too much might be seen as arrogant, but taking criticism 'k srcu' is seen as a sign of a sensitive, good person. In many neighboring cultures (Austrian, Italian), the heart is the center of social ethics. Taking something to heart implies a moral obligation to improve. In the broader Balkan context, emotional expression is often more outward. However, the Slovenian 'vzeti si k srcu' often implies a more quiet, internal suffering. In modern business Slovenian, this phrase is used to soften the blow of 'constructive feedback' (konstruktivna kritika).
The 'Si' Secret
Always remember the 'si'. If you say 'vzeti k srcu', it sounds like you are physically moving an object toward a heart. 'Si' makes it personal.
Don't Overuse
If you say you take *everything* to heart, people might think you are too dramatic. Use it for things that actually matter.

よくある質問
10 問No. While it often refers to being hurt by criticism, it can also mean taking good advice very seriously.
Not really. We don't 'take positive news to heart' in the same way. For positive things, we might say 'to me je pogrelo srce' (that warmed my heart).
'Sekirati se' is more informal and means 'to worry/stress'. 'Vzeti si k srcu' is more about the emotional impact and the depth of the feeling.
The most natural translation is 'Ne vzemi si k srcu' or 'Ne vzemi tega osebno'.
Because the preposition 'k' always requires the dative case in Slovenian.
Yes, especially during performance reviews or when discussing company values.
No, that would be 'boli me pri srcu' or 'imam bolečine v prsnem košu'.
Younger people might say 'Ne se dajat na srce' or just 'Ne se bedirat'.
Often, yes. If you take advice to heart, the expectation is that you will act on it.
Yes, e.g., 'On si je to vzel k srcu' (He took that to heart).
