Find one's feet

意思

Becoming stable or adjusted.

🌍

文化背景

In nomadic life, a young animal that cannot 'find its feet' is a liability. This harsh reality makes the idiom very powerful—it's about survival and becoming a part of the herd's movement. In Ulaanbaatar, 'finding your feet' often refers to navigating the complex social and economic networks (tanyltal) that help one get ahead. Mongolians value 'suur' (foundation). Finding your feet is the first step toward building a 'suur' for a business. There is a strong emphasis on students becoming independent. Parents often use this phrase to express hope for their children studying abroad.

Yes, but it's more common to use 'хөлд орох' (to enter into feet) for a baby's first steps. 'Хөлөө олох' is more about the stability after they start.

The closest opposite is 'хөл алдах' (to lose one's footing/be overwhelmed).

No, it can apply to companies, countries, projects, or even scientific theories.
