意味
Having no money.
文化的背景
In Georgia, it's common to complain about having a 'tsarieli jibe' even if you have a little money. It's a way to stay humble and avoid 'tvalis cemа' (the evil eye) regarding wealth. The 'empty pocket' is a romanticized theme in old 'Kalakuri' (urban) songs, often paired with themes of love and wine. Georgian students often use this phrase to bond over their shared financial struggles, especially before the next scholarship or allowance arrives. In small-scale Georgian business, 'tsarieli jibit datsqeba' (starting with an empty pocket) is seen as a mark of a true self-made entrepreneur.
Use it for empathy
If a friend says they can't afford something, saying 'მეც ცარიელი ჯიბე მაქვს' (I also have an empty pocket) is a great way to show solidarity.
Don't use with bosses
Telling your boss you have a 'tsarieli jibe' might sound like you're begging for a raise too aggressively.

The 'Wind' variation
If you want to sound like a native, use 'ჯიბეში ქარი მიქრის' (The wind blows in my pocket) for extra dramatic effect.
Hospitality first
Even with a 'tsarieli jibe', never refuse a glass of water or a simple seat if offered; it's about the gesture.
