문화적 배경
Norwegians value consensus. This phrase is a way to avoid being the 'lone wolf' in a discussion. Similar to Norway, Swedes use 'Det är många som tycker' to maintain social harmony. Danes use 'Der er mange, der mener' to introduce public opinion in a similar way. Americans are often more direct, but 'Many people are saying' is a common rhetorical device in politics.
