معنی
Asking about meteorological conditions.
زمینه فرهنگی
Weather is the single most important factor for nomadic life. Asking about it is a sign of empathy for the challenges of herding. In the capital, this phrase is often used to discuss air pollution (smog) during the winter, not just temperature. Mongolians believe the 'Eternal Blue Sky' (Munkh Khukh Tenger) watches over them. Weather is seen as the sky's mood. It is considered polite to answer weather questions with a positive or neutral tone, even if the weather is harsh.
The 'Gadaa' Shortcut
If you want to sound like a local, just say 'Gadaa yamar baina?'. It's shorter and very natural.
Don't say 'How'
Never use 'Kherkhen' (How). Always use 'Yamar' (What kind). Using 'Kherkhen' is the #1 sign of a beginner.
