معنی
Common way to say goodbye (literally 'I will come')
زمینه فرهنگی
The concept of 'Amangalam' (inauspiciousness) is so strong that even if someone is leaving for a long time, they will still say 'Varugiren'. It's a way to keep the relationship alive. In Sri Lanka, the phrase is equally common, but the pronunciation might be slightly more formal or 'pure' (Senthu varukiren) in certain regions like Jaffna. Among the diaspora in the UK, USA, or Canada, 'Varugiren' is often the last bit of Tamil that remains in a conversation, even if the rest is in English. In a Tamil business context, saying 'Varugiren' is better than 'Bye' as it shows respect for the local culture and implies a long-term business relationship.
The 'Poittu' Secret
If you want to sound 100% like a local, always say 'Poittu varen' instead of just 'Varugiren'. It's the most natural way to leave.
The Funeral Rule
Never say 'Varugiren' at a funeral. Just nod and leave. It's the only time being silent is more polite than being verbal.
