معنی
Feeling relieved after a worry is gone.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Lithuanian culture, stones are often seen as symbols of burden or silence. There is a famous hill of stones (Mūšos tyrelis) and many mythological stones. The 'falling stone' represents a return to the natural order of peace. Across the Baltics, the heart is considered the center of truth. If a stone is there, you cannot be your true self. Removing it is a form of spiritual cleansing. In modern Vilnius or Kaunas, this phrase is used frequently in corporate culture to signal the end of a stressful quarter or project, showing how traditional idioms adapt to modern stress. For Lithuanians living abroad, this phrase is often one of the few idioms they retain, as the physical sensation of 'heart relief' is so universal and easy to remember.
Use with 'Man'
Always remember to use the dative 'man' (to me) to sound natural. Lithuanians rarely say 'Mano akmuo nukrito'.
Not for Physical Pain
If your heart actually hurts, go to the doctor. Don't use this idiom to describe chest pain!
