معنی
You must live with your choices.
زمینه فرهنگی
In traditional Romanian homes, the 'guest room' (casa mare) had the most beautifully 'așternut' beds, which were never used, only displayed to show the family's wealth and diligence. The proverb is equally popular in the Republic of Moldova, often used by elders to instill a sense of 'hărnicie' (industriousness) in the younger generation. Similar proverbs exist across the Balkans, reflecting a shared regional value of self-reliance in the face of historical instability. Younger Romanians use this proverb ironically on social media when someone posts about a self-inflicted 'fail'.
Use it for empathy too!
While often a reproach, you can use it to praise someone: 'Ai învățat mult și ai reușit. Cum îți așterni, așa dormi!'
Watch your tone
If said with a smirk, it can sound very arrogant. Use a neutral tone to sound like a wise advisor.
