معنی
Becoming indifferent or unfriendly.
زمینه فرهنگی
In villages, 'Akkhāṁ phēr ਲੈਣਾ' is a serious social snub. Because everyone knows everyone, avoiding eye contact is a public declaration of a feud. Many Punjabi songs use this idiom to describe a lover who has become unfaithful or a friend who changed after moving abroad (to Canada or the UK). In historical texts, turning one's eyes away from the 'Guru' or the 'Panth' (community) is seen as a great moral failing. In Punjabi business culture, trust is built on 'Zubaan' (word) and eye contact. If a partner 'turns their eyes,' it usually signals the end of a partnership.
Grammar Hack
Always remember that 'Akkhāṁ' is feminine plural. In the past tense, the verb will always end in 'iāṁ' (ਲਈਆਂ).
Don't be too literal
If you use this for someone who just turned their head to look at a car, people will be confused. Use it for emotional changes.
