意思
to give up or admit defeat
文化背景
In Norwegian business culture, 'å kaste kortene' is seen as a sign of 'edruelighet' (sobriety/realism). It is better to admit defeat than to be delusional. Card games like 'Vri-åtter' and 'Bridge' are very popular in mountain cabins (hyttekultur), which keeps card-based idioms alive. In the context of the 'Tour de Ski', Norwegian commentators often use this when a favorite athlete falls too far behind. Norwegian coalition governments often use this idiom during 'budsjettkonferanser' (budget conferences) at Hurdalsjøen.
Use it in Business
This is a very safe idiom to use in professional Norwegian settings to sound more natural.
Definite Form
Never say 'kaste kort'. It must be 'kortene'.
