معنی
You are hiding something.
زمینه فرهنگی
Armenians value 'համեստություն' (modesty) and 'զսպվածություն' (restraint) in speech. Sometimes, not saying everything is seen as a virtue, but this idiom is used when that restraint becomes suspicious. In the capital, this phrase is often used in the 'coffee culture' (սուրճի սեղան) where gossip and social reading are common pastimes. In business, transparency is growing, but older generations may still use indirectness. This phrase helps 'break the ice' and get to the real point of a meeting. In the Diaspora (USA, France, etc.), this idiom is a way to maintain cultural connection through 'internal' language that outsiders don't understand.
Use with a smile
If you use this playfully, it's a great way to bond. If you use it with a flat face, it's a serious accusation.
Suffixes matter
Don't forget the -դ (your) or -ս (my). 'Լեզվի տակ' without a suffix sounds incomplete.
