意味
There is usually a reason for a rumor.
文化的背景
Estonians are known for being 'metsarahvas' (forest people). Fire and smoke were vital for survival and communication in the woods, which is why so many idioms involve these elements. Similar to Estonia, Finns use 'Ei savua ilman tulta'. The shared Baltic-Finnic heritage makes the usage almost identical in social contexts. Latvians say 'Kur dūmi, tur uguns'. Being neighbors, the logic of the 'smoke signal' is deeply embedded in the entire Baltic region's folklore. In Russia, 'Нет дыма без огня' is extremely common. Due to historical proximity, many Estonians are equally comfortable with the Russian equivalent.
Use it for skepticism
This is your best tool when you want to sound like a savvy local who doesn't believe everything they hear.
Don't use for literal fires
If you see a real fire, use 'Tuli!' or 'Põleb!'. Using the proverb will make people think you're talking about gossip while the house burns.

よくある質問
3 問Not necessarily, but it implies you are listening to gossip. Use it with friends or in neutral discussions, but maybe not to your boss about their own life.
Because it's in the partitive case, which is used for things that exist in an indefinite amount in 'there is' sentences.
Only if you are discussing market trends or general industry rumors. Don't use it to talk about people in the company.
