뜻
Don't criticize a gift you received.
문화적 배경
Estonians value 'talupojatarkus' (peasant wisdom). This proverb is a prime example of practical, grounded advice that has survived for centuries. Similar to their Nordic neighbors, Estonians have a culture of 'Jante Law' (though less explicit), where being flashy or demanding is looked down upon. The horse was the most important asset in rural societies. This proverb links Estonia to a global history of animal husbandry. In the age of 'freemium' apps, Estonians use this proverb to defend free services against picky users.
Use it for yourself
It's a great phrase to say to yourself when you feel ungrateful. It helps shift your mindset.
Don't be too harsh
Saying this to a stranger might sound a bit preachy. Use it mostly with friends or family.

10 질문Technically no, it's for gifts. But in a very casual setting, you might use it jokingly for a 90% discount.
It can be. It's often used to correct someone else's rudeness, so use it carefully.
It is the illative case of 'suu' (mouth), meaning 'into the mouth'.
Because horses were the most common and valuable 'big' gift in historical agricultural societies.
Sometimes people just say 'Kingitud hobune...' and nod.
Absolutely. It's very common at parties or events with free catering.
Only if the tone is very friendly and informal. Otherwise, it's too casual.
There isn't a direct opposite, but 'Klient on kuningas' (The customer is king) applies when you ARE paying.
Yes, almost every Estonian knows and uses this phrase.
