意思
To live wealthily or well
文化背景
The color green is sacred in Latvian folklore, appearing in many 'dainas' (folk songs) as a symbol of youth and fertility. After 1991, 'dzīvot zaļi' became a symbol of the new capitalist success, often associated with the 'jaunbagātnieki' (nouveau riche). There is a tension today between 'dzīvot zaļi' (wealth) and 'zaļā dzīvošana' (sustainability), leading to many puns in advertising. The band Labvēlīgais Tips has a song 'Dzīvot zaļi' which is a staple at Latvian parties and weddings.
