>Sivistys is a Finnish concept with two distinctive definitions:
>1) a general societal aim and value; enlightenment
>2) a specific type of person who is civilised and well-behaved, who lives in harmony with other people, wider society, and nature, and who can also contribute to the preservation and development of communities, the environment, and humankind in general.

Why doesn't your country have a word for sivistys? Are you uncivilized?

That's literally just the concept of being civilized. It doesn't need a word, you understand it at an instinctual level if you're not [redacted].
You even used the term "uncivilized", which is the concept in reverse.

Sivistys is broader, you have terms like yleissivistys in finnish which don't exist in english and which aren't really covered by the word civilization or being civilized.

This is great. I think civic education is missing in the west and is partly why so many grow up hating their country's history.
