معنی
Someone who gets angry very quickly
زمینه فرهنگی
The nose is a symbol of 'Mān-Pān' (Honor and Protocol). Having anger on the nose suggests that your honor is too easily offended. Classic Marathi plays (Nāṭak) often feature a 'short-tempered' father figure as a comedic or dramatic trope. In villages, this phrase is often used to describe a 'fiery' bull or animal as well, showing its broad application. Younger generations use it to describe 'toxic' behavior in relationships, though often in a lighter, teasing way.
Use with 'Asṇe'
Always remember to pair this with the verb 'Asṇe' (to be) to make a complete sentence.
Don't use for serious anger
If someone is rightfully furious about something serious, this idiom might sound too trivializing.

The 'Tip' variation
Add 'शेंड्यावर' (sheṇḍyāvar - on the tip) to 'नाकाच्या' to sound even more like a native speaker: 'त्याच्या नाकाच्या शेंड्यावर राग असतो!'
