Bedeutung
To feel relieved after a scare.
Kultureller Hintergrund
The heart is considered the center of all emotions. Armenians often say 'սրտով մարդ' (a person with heart) to mean someone is generous and kind. Even in English-speaking diaspora communities, you will hear people say 'My heart came to its place' as a direct translation because the English 'relief' feels too weak. Traditional healers in Armenian villages used to 'fix' a displaced heart through prayer or specific movements, believing that fear physically moved the organ. When a guest arrives safely after a long journey, the host will often use this phrase to show how much they cared about the guest's safety.
