뜻
Needing to eat.
문화적 배경
Danes often eat lunch early (around 11:00-12:00). If you say 'Jeg er sulten' at 11:30, it's perfectly normal. The concept of 'lækkersulten' is very common in Danish 'hygge' culture, often leading to 'eftermiddagskaffe' (afternoon coffee) with cake. In Greenlandic Danish, 'sulten' might be used in the context of traditional hunting, where hunger was a more frequent reality historically. It is polite to wait for the host to say 'værsgo' before eating, even if you have expressed that you are 'meget sulten'.
Use 'småsulten' for politeness
If you are at someone's house and they offer food, saying 'Jeg er lidt småsulten' sounds more polite and less demanding than 'Jeg er sulten'.
Plural Agreement
Don't forget to say 'Vi er sultne'. Forgetting the 'e' is the most common mistake for English speakers.
