뜻
To show disapproval, confusion, or deep thought by creasing the forehead.
문화적 배경
In German business culture, frowning is often seen as a sign of critical thinking and engagement, not necessarily just anger. While frowning exists, it is often suppressed in public to maintain 'wa' (harmony). Frowning is very commonly associated with being 'upset' or 'unhappy' in a more personal way. Facial expressions are often more exaggerated, and frowning might be accompanied by hand gestures.
Body parts
Remember: German uses the definite article for body parts, not 'my' or 'your'.
Don't confuse
Never use 'runzeln' when you mean to stand up to someone. Use 'bieten'.
