意味
Being honest.
文化的背景
The phrase is often associated with 'Satyameva Jayate' (Truth alone triumphs), the national motto of India, which is widely respected in Maharashtra. In villages, 'खरं बोलणे' is linked to one's 'Zabaan' (word). Breaking a promise after saying you are telling the truth is a major social taboo. Saint Tukaram's poetry often emphasizes that truth is the only way to reach God, making 'Khara bolne' a spiritual act. In cities, 'To be honest' is often translated as 'खरं सांगायचं तर' at the start of sentences in corporate or social settings.
The Nasal Sound
Don't forget the dot (anusvara) on 'खरं'. It's not 'Khara', it's 'Khar-an' (soft nasal).
Gender Matters
If you are a woman, say 'बोलते' (bolte). If you are a man, say 'बोलतो' (bolto).
