뜻
A significant error.
문화적 배경
Danes value honesty. If you make a 'stor fejl', it is better to admit it immediately than to hide it. This builds trust. The phrase is a staple in political debates. It is used to signal that a policy will have negative consequences for the welfare state. In Danish schools, mistakes are seen as part of the learning process. However, a 'stor fejl' usually refers to a lack of preparation. Danes can be very direct. If you ask for an opinion on a risky move, don't be surprised if they use this phrase without softening it.
Emphasize with 'Kæmpe'
If 'stor' isn't enough, use 'kæmpe' (giant). 'Det er en kæmpe fejl!'
Gender Agreement
Always use 'en' and 'stor'. Never 'et' or 'stort' with 'fejl'.
