뜻
To accept the duty of one's actions.
문화적 배경
Taking responsibility is linked to the concept of 'dugnad'. It's not just about mistakes, but about contributing to the common good. There is a high expectation of 'flat hierarchy'. Even the CEO is expected to 'ta sitt ansvar' just like any other employee. In the US, 'taking responsibility' is often seen through the lens of 'rugged individualism' and personal success or failure. Responsibility is often collective. If one person fails, the whole group might feel the need to 'take responsibility'.
The 'Sitt' Rule
Always check your subject. If you say 'Han tar mitt ansvar', you are saying he is doing your job for you!
Don't overdo it
Using this for tiny mistakes makes you sound sarcastic or overly dramatic.
