意味
Used to apologize for a minor mistake.
文化的背景
At a formal dinner, if you must interrupt the toastmaster, a quiet 'Bodishi' is mandatory to show you aren't being disrespectful. In the Tbilisi Metro, 'Bodishi' is used almost like a tool. People expect to hear it before you push past them. If a host offers you food and you are full, saying 'Bodishi' before declining makes the refusal much softer. Younger Georgians often use the English 'Sori' in texts, but 'Bodishi' remains the standard for face-to-face interaction.
The 'T' Trick
Add a 't' (Bodishit) to sound instantly more respectful to strangers.
Don't Over-apologize
Georgians are direct. Say it once, mean it, and move on. Constant apologizing can seem insincere.

Hand on Heart
Placing your hand on your heart while saying 'Bodishi' to an elder is a high-level cultural move that earns huge respect.
Response
When someone says 'Bodishi' to you, the most common response is 'Araushavs' (It's nothing/No problem).
