意味
Looking at something with envy
文化的背景
Mothers often apply a 'Kajol-er tip' (a small black kohl mark) on a baby's forehead or behind the ear to ward off 'Chokh Dewa'. It is common to say 'Masha'Allah' (God has willed it) when praising something to ensure that the praise doesn't turn into 'Chokh Dewa'. People might perform 'Nazar utara' (removing the evil eye) by circling dried chillies or salt around a person and burning them. On social media, people use the 🧿 (Evil Eye) emoji in captions to protect their 'aesthetic' posts from 'Chokh Dewa'.
Use it jokingly

Don't be too serious
Accusing a stranger of 'giving an eye' can be very offensive as it implies they are malicious or jealous.
