A2 Collocation ニュートラル

ottaa huomioon toiveet

to consider wishes

意味

To listen to what people want.

🌍

文化的背景

In Finnish workplaces, 'taking wishes into account' is part of the 'flat hierarchy'. Even interns are expected to have their wishes considered by management. Similar to Finland, the Swedish 'fika' culture often involves 'taking wishes into account' regarding what snacks to bring or when to break. While the phrase exists, the cultural execution is different. In Japan, you might not explicitly state you are taking wishes into account; you do it subtly to maintain 'wa' (harmony). In American customer service, this is often phrased as 'We value your feedback,' which is slightly more abstract than the Finnish 'taking wishes into account.'
