Expressing admiration for something visual.
文化背景
Estonians are often reserved with praise. If an Estonian says 'See on ilus', they usually mean it sincerely. It is not just a filler phrase. There is a deep cultural connection to the 'beauty of the wild'. Bogs, forests, and the sea are the primary subjects of this phrase. Traditional Estonian mittens and embroidery are highly valued. Using 'See on ilus' for handmade items is a sign of respect for the craft. The phrase is central to the national identity, often used to describe the sight and sound of 30,000 singers in national dress.
Add 'nii' for emphasis
Saying 'See on nii ilus' (This is so beautiful) makes you sound much more natural and enthusiastic.
Avoid 'See' for people
Remember to use 'Ta on ilus' for a person, otherwise you are calling them an 'it'.
