معنی
Emotions are overflowing or very intense.
زمینه فرهنگی
The idiom reflects the Russian appreciation for 'stikhiynost' (spontaneity). A person whose emotions 'overflow' is often seen as more trustworthy than someone who is overly controlled. In Soviet propaganda, this phrase was often used to describe the 'labor enthusiasm' of workers building new cities or factories. Today, it's frequently used in the startup and tech scene in Moscow/St. Petersburg to describe 'vibrant' office cultures. Classic authors like Tolstoy used this to describe the 'natural' state of young women in society, contrasting them with 'artificial' older aristocrats.
Pair with 'Просто'
Russians almost always add the word 'просто' (simply) before the verb for emphasis: 'Энергия просто бьёт через край!'
Don't use for anger
Even though anger is a strong emotion, this phrase sounds too 'happy' for it. Stick to 'кипеть' for anger.
