معنی
An idea starts to bother someone.
زمینه فرهنگی
Hungarians value 'reading between the lines.' This idiom is often used in political discussions where people suspect hidden motives behind official statements. In some Szekler dialects, the phrase is used even more frequently for small daily mysteries, reflecting a culture of storytelling and folk wisdom. The 'nail' metaphor is linked to the historical importance of blacksmiths and carpenters in village life. A well-driven nail was a sign of quality and permanence.
Use 'szeget' not 'szöget'
While 'szöget' is modern, 'szeget' makes you sound much more like a native speaker in this idiom.
Don't use for good news
If you win the lottery, it doesn't 'strike a nail in your head.' Use it for mysteries or worries.
