კოკა ყოველთვის წყალს არ მოიტანს
The jug won't always bring water
意味
Luck eventually runs out.
文化的背景
The 'koka' is more than a jug; it's a symbol of the village spring (tsqaro), which was the social hub of old Georgian villages. Breaking a koka was a minor disaster. Since water is the basis of hospitality, the proverb also implies that if you are reckless, you lose your ability to care for others. Some interpret the proverb through a religious lens: you cannot sin repeatedly and expect divine protection forever. Even in Tbilisi apartments, people use this phrase. It shows how deeply agrarian roots remain in the modern Georgian language.
Use it for 'The Streak'
This phrase is most powerful when someone is bragging about a streak of luck. It's the perfect 'humble pie' comment.
Don't over-pronounce the 'r'
In 'ar' (not), the 'r' is a light tap, not a heavy roll. If you roll it too much, you'll sound like you're acting in a play.
