सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
In traditional nomadic culture, jumping straight to the point is considered rude. Using 'bridge' phrases like this allows for a respectful transition from small talk to business. In Ulaanbaatar, this phrase is used heavily in business emails to maintain a polite tone while being efficient with information. Mongolians often use the shortened 'Дашрамд нь' in Facebook comments to add extra context to a post. When hosting, a Mongolian might use this phrase to offer more food or drink without making the guest feel pressured.
The 'P.S.' Rule
Think of this phrase as the spoken version of 'P.S.' at the end of a letter. It's for that one extra thing you don't want to forget.
Don't Overuse
If you use it too much, you might sound like you can't stay on topic. Use it once or twice in a conversation max.
