뜻
That is a completely different situation.
문화적 배경
Reflects the value of 'saklighet' (objectivity). It allows for disagreement without personal conflict by focusing on the 'case'. In Bergen, you might hear 'en annen femmer' more often, reflecting the city's historical mercantile and monetary focus. Used to manage expectations. It's a polite way to tell a client that a change in scope will cost more or take longer. Younger people might swap 'femte' for 'ballgame' or 'level' due to English influence, but 'femte/femmer' remains a classic.
Add 'Helt' for Impact
Always add 'helt' (completely) before 'annen' to sound more natural and emphatic. 'Det er en *helt* annen femte!'
Don't say 'Fem'
Never say 'en annen fem'. The 'te' at the end of 'femte' is crucial for the idiom to work.
