I liked to think the preceding verbs were reflections of the culture. In Hispanic countries, choices may have been limited historically or decisions were made for you by an authority so you ‘take’ from the options available. In England and the US, there was an attitude of forging your own destiny so ‘making’ a decision seems natural. In Germany, well heck, anybody in a country where they used to have beer with breakfast is probably just going to be happy to see you, so my guess is that’s why they ‘meet’ decisions and opportunities. No facts to support this. Just a hunch.
Bledina is a brand of baby food and also means prostitute in Russia, but the best is bite which means well bite but in French it's a dick and in German bitte means please/you're welcome.
Nice!
Edit : I didn't know Marwari culture so I searched on Google and at first it returned only stuff about horses...for a second I was "why do I believe everything people told me on the internet?" but then I found the answer I was looking for^^
Marwari is actually the region near the Marwar area in India and the language which the people over here speak is called marwari.
Found a link for ya in case you wanna know more: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marwari_people
The german term is "Entscheidung treffen".
"Treffen" can mean "to meet" or "to hit / to strike".
Or you could use "eine Entscheidung fällen". "Fällen" is also the verb for cutting down trees ("einen Baum fällen") and derives from the verb "fallen" which means "to fall / to drop".
Sooo...yeah. Maybe we don't "meet decisions" like old friends in Germany but instead strike them or cut them down...

Thank you! I was only extrapolating what I could with the information I had.
American: Make opportunity
German: Meet expectation
