Significado
To be the main focus of attention.
Contexto cultural
Janteloven (The Law of Jante) often makes Danes hesitant to be 'i centrum' in a way that seems boastful. Humility is highly valued. In contrast to Denmark, American culture often encourages individuals to 'stand out' and be the center of attention as a sign of confidence. Japanese culture emphasizes 'Wa' (harmony), and being the center of attention can be seen as disruptive to the group dynamic. Brazilian social culture is very warm, and being 'i centrum' at a party is often seen as being a good, charismatic host or guest.
Preposition Power

Janteloven
Be careful saying you love being in the center. It can sound a bit too confident for traditional Danish tastes.
