معنی
Being self-reliant financially or emotionally
زمینه فرهنگی
In communities like the Patels or Shahs, 'standing on one's feet' often involves starting a 'Dhando' (business) rather than just taking a salary job. In villages, this phrase is used when a young man takes over the farming responsibilities from his aging father. For the modern generation, this idiom is often linked to moving to cities like Bangalore or Mumbai for IT jobs. Matrimonial ads often use the formal version 'Swa-nirbhar' or 'Well-settled', which is the functional equivalent of this idiom.
Gender Agreement
Always check if you are talking about a boy (ubho), girl (ubhi), or group (ubha).
Literal vs Figurative
Don't use this if someone just stood up to open the door. It sounds too serious!
