Тримати в секреті

тримати в секреті

Keep a secret

意思

Not telling anyone something

🌍

文化背景

Sharing a secret is often accompanied by the phrase 'Тільки нікому не кажи' (Just don't tell anyone), which ironically often signals that the secret is about to spread. There is a strong cultural push for 'operational silence'. Keeping military secrets is seen as a high form of patriotism. In tight-knit village communities, 'keeping a secret' is difficult, leading to the sarcastic proverb 'Що знають двоє, знає й свиня' (What two people know, the pig knows too). Western-style NDAs are becoming common, but informal 'gentleman's agreements' to keep things secret are still highly valued.

Don't forget the 'В'
