Significado
Taking a break from work.
Contexto cultural
The concept of 'Amralt' is synonymous with going to the countryside. For many, 'resting' in the city is not considered true rest. Tea breaks are social and essential. If you don't 'амрах' with colleagues, you might be seen as antisocial. Hospitality dictates that a traveler must be allowed to 'амрах' and given tea before being asked any questions. Friday nights are often for 'амрах' at home to avoid the massive traffic jams of the city.
The 'Goodnight' Rule
Always use 'Сайхан амраарай' when leaving a social gathering in the evening. It makes you sound very polite and fluent.
Vowel Harmony
Don't say 'Амрнэ'. Because 'А' is a back vowel, you must use 'на'.
