زمینه فرهنگی
The 'Sāno-Thulo' concept is central to social hierarchy. Respect is always paid from the 'Sāno' (junior) to the 'Thulo' (senior). Kinship terms often use 'Sāno' to distinguish between uncles/aunts. 'Sāno Bubā' is your father's younger brother. When receiving a compliment, Nepalis often downplay their achievements as 'sāno' to show humility. In a Nepali home, being offered a 'sāno' portion of food is often a polite way to start, with the expectation that you will be offered 'thap' (seconds).
