معنی
Describing a hard task.
زمینه فرهنگی
When an official says 'ነገሩ አስቸጋሪ ነው', it often means you need more paperwork, or you need to come back another day. It's a soft way of saying 'not now'. Traffic is the most common topic for this phrase. It's a bonding experience for people to complain about how 'አስቸጋሪ' the road is. Parents use 'አስቸጋሪ' to describe a child who is going through a 'terrible twos' phase or being stubborn. It's less harsh than calling them 'bad'. Students use this to show respect for the subject. Saying a subject is 'easy' can sometimes be seen as arrogant.
The 'Polite No'
If someone asks for a favor you can't do, start with 'ነገሩ አስቸጋሪ ነው...' to soften the blow.
Don't call people 'Aschegari'
Unless you are very close friends, calling someone 'aschegari' is quite rude. It's better to say 'ባህሪው ይከብዳል' (His character is heavy).
