뜻
Having a strong determination to achieve something.
문화적 배경
The 'Vasaloppet' ski race is the ultimate cultural expression of 'stark vilja'. It's not about being the fastest, but about having the will to finish 90km. Swedish leadership often values 'consensus', but once a decision is made, a 'stark vilja' to implement it is expected from everyone. Astrid Lindgren's characters, like Pippi Långstrump or Emil i Lönneberga, are classic examples of 'starka viljor'—children who know what they want. While Swedes are generally reserved, showing a 'stark vilja' in your hobbies or fitness is a socially acceptable way to show passion.
Use in CVs
Instead of just saying you are 'hardworking', use 'Jag har en stark vilja att bidra till företagets mål'.
Don't overdo it
If you use it for small things, it sounds sarcastic.
