意思
Doing something with complete sincerity.
文化背景
Latvians often express emotions through 'sirsnība' in written form (cards, letters) more easily than in spoken form, making this phrase a staple of Latvian correspondence. During the closing concert of the Song Festival, conductors often thank the choir 'no visas sirds', which is met with thunderous applause, symbolizing national unity. In ancient beliefs, the heart was the place where 'Laima' (the goddess of luck) would whisper her advice. Speaking from the heart was speaking with divine truth. Latvian influencers use #novisassirds to signal that a post is not a paid advertisement but a genuine recommendation.
Greeting Cards
If you don't know what to write in a Latvian card, 'No visas sirds apsveicu!' is always a safe and perfect choice.
Don't use for memory
Remember: 'To know by heart' is 'zināt no galvas' (from head), NOT 'no sirds'.
