Bedeutung
Referring to one's close circle of friends.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In Kathmandu, the 'Gyang' often revolves around 'Chiya' (tea) stalls. These are the primary social hubs where the squad meets daily. Rappers like VTEN and Uniq Poet have popularized the term 'Gyang' in their lyrics, associating it with loyalty and street-smart identity. On TikTok and Instagram, 'Gyang' is used in hashtags to build online communities. It's common to see #KTMGyang or #RiderGyang. Older generations might prefer 'Sathibhai', which sounds more wholesome. Using 'Gyang' is a way for youth to distinguish themselves from the 'old ways'.
