Describing the weather or temperature.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
In Yerevan, 'Տաք է' is often a precursor to visiting a 'Pulpulak'. These water fountains are a symbol of the city's care for its citizens during the heat. In the Diaspora, 'Տաք' is often used to describe the 'warmth' of the community and the preservation of culture in a 'cold' foreign environment. Armenians believe food must be served 'Տաք-տաք' (hot-hot). Serving lukewarm food is often seen as a sign of poor hospitality. In villages, the 'Տաք' of the 'Tonir' (underground oven) is central to life, representing both food and the hearth of the home.
The 'It' Rule
Never look for the word 'it' when describing weather in Armenian. Just say the adjective and 'is'.
Spicy vs. Hot
Avoid saying 'Տաք' for spicy food. You will confuse your waiter!
