뜻
To be given something as a present.
문화적 배경
Gift-giving is very common for birthdays. It is polite to open the gift in front of the giver. Similar to Germany, but 'Präsent' is used slightly more often in formal settings. Swiss Germans often use 'übercho' instead of 'bekommen' in dialect. The concept of 'receiving' is universal, but the social expectation to say 'Danke' is strictly enforced in German-speaking countries.
Focus on the verb
Remember that 'bekommen' is a false friend for 'become'. It means 'to get'.
Saying thanks
Always follow up with 'Danke' when you receive a gift.
