معنی
Family bonds are very strong.
زمینه فرهنگی
The concept of 'Krv' is central to the 'Slava', a family's most important religious holiday, celebrating their patron saint passed down through the male bloodline. In Montenegro, blood ties historically dictated 'Krvna osveta' (blood feuds), where the proverb had a much more literal and serious meaning regarding clan loyalty. For Serbs living abroad, this phrase is often used to explain why they feel a strong connection to a homeland they may have never lived in. In villages, this phrase is often used when discussing livestock or horses, showing that the belief in 'good blood' extends to all living things.
Use it for forgiveness
If you want to sound like a wise mediator, use this phrase when two family members are fighting.
Not for friends
Never use this for your 'bestie' unless you want to imply you are actually related.
