意思
An intelligent young male.
文化背景
Estonians value 'quiet' intelligence. A 'tark poiss' is often someone who listens more than he talks. The 'e-Estonia' identity means that technical literacy is a key part of being considered 'tark' today. In folklore, the 'tark' was a shaman. This gives the word a slightly more profound weight than just 'smart'. School success is highly celebrated. PISA results are a matter of national pride.
