Describing low temperatures.

🌍

문화적 배경

Danes use weather talk to avoid talking about personal or controversial topics. It is a 'safe' social zone. In Greenland (part of the Danish Realm), 'koldt vejr' has a much more extreme meaning and involves specific survival vocabulary. The concept of 'Friluftsliv' (open-air life) means that 'koldt vejr' is not an excuse to stay inside. Expats in Denmark often struggle with the 'koldt vejr' and the lack of sunlight, leading to the importance of 'winter hygge'.
