معنی
To feel a great sense of relief after a worry is gone.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Germany, expressing relief with this idiom is very common in news interviews with politicians or athletes after a tense event. Austrians use the phrase identically, though the pronunciation of 'Stein' and 'Herz' may vary with local dialects (e.g., 'Hertzl'). In Switzerland, you might hear 'Es isch mer en Stei vom Herze gheit', using the Swiss verb 'gheie' for 'fallen'.
Use 'echt' for emphasis
Say 'Mir ist echt ein Stein vom Herzen gefallen' to sound more like a native speaker.
Dative is Key
Always remember: MIR, DIR, IHM, IHR. Never use 'Ich' or 'Du'.
