意思
Being grateful for something or someone.
文化背景
In Danish workplaces, 'at sætte pris på' is a key part of the feedback culture. Because of the flat hierarchy, bosses use it to show they value employees as equals. The concept of 'Hygge' often involves acknowledging the effort others put into the social atmosphere. Using this phrase is a way to 'hygge-snakke' (cozy-talk) and reinforce social bonds. While Danish is spoken here, the local cultures are often more reserved. 'At sætte pris på' is used, but often in more formal or significant contexts than in mainland Denmark. Expats often find that Danes don't say 'thank you' as much for small things (like holding a door), but use 'sætte pris på' for meaningful actions, which can feel like a higher 'currency' of gratitude.
The 'At' Rule
If you follow the phrase with a verb, always use 'at'. Example: 'Jeg sætter pris på AT du kom.'
No 'En'
Never say 'sætte EN pris på' when you mean appreciate. That sounds like you are literally pricing an item for sale.
