Turn up nose

意味

To act arrogantly or look down.

🌍

文化的背景

In traditional Kazakh society, arrogance was seen as a sign of 'low breeding.' A true noble (tekti) was expected to be the most humble person in the room. With the rise of 'New Kazakhs' (wealthy elite), this phrase is often used in social commentary on Instagram and TikTok to criticize flashy displays of wealth. Refusing food offered by a host by 'wrinkling your nose' is considered a grave insult in Kazakh, Kyrgyz, and Uzbek cultures. In the Kazakh workplace, a boss who 'мұрнын шүйіреді' is often the subject of 'shay ishu' (tea drinking) gossip, where employees vent about their lack of approachability.
