Bedeutung
To experience something difficult personally.
Kultureller Hintergrund
The 'shoulders' are a symbol of national resilience. Georgians often view their history as a series of burdens they have successfully carried. In the mountains, physical strength (shoulders) was vital for survival against avalanches and invaders. The idiom has a very literal resonance there. In the city, this phrase is often used to describe the 'dark 90s'—a period of no electricity and civil war. Classic writers like Vazha-Pshavela use shoulder imagery to describe the 'heroic sufferer' who takes on the pain of others.
