Bedeutung
Someone with little money.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In traditional Mongolian culture, poverty was often linked to the loss of livestock. A 'ядуу хүн' was someone who had to work for others to survive. Giving to a 'ядуу хүн' is considered a way to accumulate 'буян' (merit). Charity is a core religious practice. The 'ger districts' of Ulaanbaatar are often where 'ядуу хүмүүс' live. This has created a distinct social and geographical divide in the city. The 'ядуу хүн' is a hero in many tales, often outsmarting the 'баян' or the 'хаан' (king) through wisdom.
Use with 'маш'
To say 'very poor,' always use 'маш ядуу хүн.'
