Bedeutung
To help someone recover or start.
Kultureller Hintergrund
The idiom reflects the 'Supra' culture where helping a neighbor is a matter of honor. Toasts are often dedicated to those who 'stand others on their feet.' In the 90s, this phrase was used constantly regarding the economy. 'Putting the country on its feet' became a national mantra for survival. Georgian doctors often use this phrase to reassure families. It sounds more hopeful and active than just saying 'they will get better.' In rural Georgia, the phrase is still used literally for livestock, which connects the modern business world to ancient farming roots.
Use it for gratitude
If you want to thank a mentor, say 'თქვენ მე ფეხზე დამაყენეთ' (You put me on my feet). It sounds much more profound than a simple thank you.
Watch the cases
Remember that in the past tense, the person who helped takes '-მა' (Ergative).
