意味
Avoiding all work or responsibility.
文化的背景
In Kolkata, this phrase is often used to describe the 'Adda' culture when it goes too far—where people spend hours chatting at tea stalls instead of working. In rural Bangladesh, this idiom is a sharp sting to one's reputation. Being known as someone who 'gaye phu diye beray' can make it hard to find a good marriage match. Second-generation Bengalis in the UK or USA might hear this from their parents when they are seen as 'too relaxed' compared to the immigrant struggle of their elders. In modern offices, this idiom has evolved to describe 'quiet quitting' or employees who do the bare minimum while appearing busy.
Use it for 'Free-loaders'

Don't use with your Boss
