زمینه فرهنگی
The Matenadaran museum houses the 'Msho Charantir', the largest Armenian 'hast girk', weighing 28 kilograms. In many Diaspora homes, a 'hast girk' (often a dictionary or history book) is kept as a symbol of cultural identity. Armenian students often joke about the 'hast' textbooks of the Soviet era, which were known for being extremely dense.
Visualizing the spine
When you think of 'hast', look at the spine of the book, not the cover.
Avoid 'fat'
While 'hast' can mean 'fat' for objects, don't use it to describe people in a polite way; use 'գեր' (ger) instead.
