뜻
Stating what you personally believe.
문화적 배경
Norwegians value 'ærlighet' (honesty) and 'direkte tale' (direct speech). Stating your opinion clearly is respected, as long as it is done calmly. The concept of 'Lagom' (Sweden) or 'moderasjon' (Norway) means you shouldn't be too aggressive with your opinions. 'Det er min mening' is a moderate way to speak. Flat hierarchy in Norwegian offices means even an intern can say 'Det er min mening' to a CEO. In Norwegian 'kommentarfelt' (comment sections), this phrase is often used to signal that the user is participating in a democratic debate.
The 'At' Bridge
Always use 'at' if you want to follow the phrase with a full sentence. 'Det er min mening AT...'
Don't say 'Jeg er'
Never say 'Jeg er min mening'. It's the most common mistake for English speakers!
