意思
Quiet people may have complex personalities.
文化背景
Silence is a virtue in Estonia. Being called 'vagus vesi' is often a high compliment, suggesting you are a thinker. Similar to Estonia, Finns value the 'silent strength' (Sisu) and have nearly identical proverbs about quiet waters. In the UK, 'Still waters run deep' is often used for people who are emotionally complex or secretive. The Russian equivalent 'В тихом омуте черти водятся' (In a quiet pool, devils dwell) is much more negative and suspicious.
Use it for Introverts
If you want to make an Estonian friend feel understood, use this to describe their quiet but thoughtful nature.
Don't over-pronounce the 'g'
In 'vagus' and 'sügav', the 'g' is soft, almost like a 'k' but voiced.
