뜻
To start a new, independent phase, like a bird flying.
문화적 배경
In France, the transition to independence is often celebrated with family dinners. The phrase is used to acknowledge the child's growth. Similar to France, but often used in the context of young adults moving to Montreal for university. Used in both French and Dutch (in translation) to describe the same life milestones. Often used in professional contexts regarding the Swiss startup scene.
Focus on the metaphor
Always remember the bird. If it's not a bird or a person acting like one, don't use it.
Avoid literal use
Do not use this for planes. It will sound very strange to a native speaker.
