뜻
Expressing uncertainty or possibility.
문화적 배경
Norwegians value 'kos' and social harmony. 'Kanskje' is a tool to keep conversations light and non-confrontational. The preference for consensus means that direct 'no's are often avoided. 'Kanskje' acts as a soft 'no'. In Norwegian offices, 'kanskje' is used to suggest ideas without stepping on toes, respecting the flat hierarchy. It is a low-pressure way to suggest a date, allowing both parties to save face if the other isn't interested.
Placement
You can put 'kanskje' at the start or end of a sentence for different emphasis.
Don't overdo it
Using 'kanskje' in every sentence makes you sound very unsure of yourself.
