ḍaḥika 'ala dhqoon al-naas

Laughed on people's beards

意味

To deceive, trick, or make a fool of people, often with cunning and mockery.

🌍

文化的背景

The beard is a symbol of 'Muru'a' (chivalry). Mocking it is a direct hit to a man's social standing. Egyptians use this phrase frequently in political satire and 'Musalsalat' (TV dramas) to highlight corruption. In Lebanon and Syria, the phrase is used to describe 'empty talk' (حكي فاضي) from officials. In the Gulf, honesty in trade is highly valued; 'laughing at chins' is a serious accusation of bad faith.

🎯

Use with Sarcasm

This phrase works best when delivered with a slightly cynical or sarcastic tone. It shows you are 'street smart'.

⚠️

Not for Friends

Don't use this with close friends unless they have actually done something dishonest. It's too strong for a simple joke.
