معنی
A comfortable pillow.
زمینه فرهنگی
Pillows are often used as backrests while sitting on the floor (on a ko'rpacha) during meals. It is considered polite to offer the softest pillow to the eldest person in the room. This region is famous for its cotton. Traditional pillows here are often very firm and stuffed tightly with raw cotton, making a 'yumshoq yostiq' a luxury item usually reserved for guests. A bride's dowry ('sep') must include a certain number of handmade pillows. The quality of the 'yumshoq yostiq' reflects the bride's family's wealth and care. If you are a guest and you are not offered a pillow to lean on, it might subtly signal that the host is busy and the visit should be short. A 'yumshoq yostiq' means 'stay as long as you like'.
