意思
To provide for one's family.
文化背景
In Finland, 'pitää huolta perheestä' includes taking paternity leave. It's not just about money, but being present. The state is seen as a partner in 'holding care.' People pay high taxes so the state can help them 'pitää huolta.' The definition of 'perhe' is expanding to include close friends, but the phrase 'pitää huolta' remains the same. Historically, this meant physical labor and ensuring there was enough firewood and food for the winter.
The 'From' Logic
Remember that in Finnish, you take care 'from' someone. Think of it as taking the worry away from them.
Don't forget 'Huolta'
If you just say 'Pidän perheestä,' you are saying you like them, which is nice but not what you mean!
