意思
To be open-minded and well-informed.
文化背景
In Norway, 'bred horisont' is often linked to the 'Friluftsliv' culture. Being outdoors and seeing the vast landscapes is thought to physically and mentally open a person up. Norway prides itself on being a 'peace nation'. Having a 'bred horisont' is considered a prerequisite for working in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (UD). The Norwegian school system emphasizes 'kritisk tenkning' (critical thinking). A 'bred horisont' is the ultimate goal of a liberal arts education (allmenndannelse). While 'Janteloven' discourages standing out, having a 'bred horisont' is a socially acceptable way to show you are sophisticated without being 'better than others'.
Use it in Job Applications
Norwegian employers love the phrase 'bred horisont'. It signals that you are adaptable and culturally competent.
Don't use 'stor'
Even though 'big' makes sense in English, 'stor horisont' sounds very unnatural in Norwegian.

The opposite is a strong insult
