뜻
Stating that one is physically cold.
문화적 배경
Complaining about the cold is a national pastime and a safe topic for small talk with strangers. The Sami people have dozens of words for different types of cold and snow, reflecting the vital importance of temperature in the Arctic. Offices are usually kept very warm in winter, so saying 'Minulla on kylmä' indoors might be seen as a sign of getting sick. The phrase is the ultimate excuse to suggest a sauna session, which is the primary Finnish 'cure' for being cold.
The 'Mulla' Shortcut
Use 'Mulla' instead of 'Minulla' to sound more like a local.
The 'Olen' Trap
Never say 'Olen kylmä' unless you want people to think you are a villain in a movie.
