tehdä vaikutus

to make an impression

Significado

Affecting someone's opinion of you.

🌍

Contexto cultural

Finns value 'teot ennen sanoja' (deeds before words). Making an impression is best done through showing skill rather than talking about it. In Finnish business, punctuality and honesty make a bigger impression than charismatic sales pitches. Over-the-top romantic gestures can sometimes be seen as 'vaivaannuttava' (awkward). A subtle, genuine impression is often preferred. Students are encouraged to show critical thinking to impress teachers, rather than just memorizing facts.
