Big family

意味

A family with many members.

🌍

文化的背景

In rural Maharashtra, a 'Moṭhe Kuṭumba' is often the backbone of village politics. The more members a family has, the more influence they wield in the Gram Panchayat. In cities like Mumbai, 'Moṭhe Kuṭumba' is often a logistical challenge due to small apartments. This has led to the rise of 'weekend family gatherings' where the big family meets. Classic Marathi novels like 'Vapurza' or 'Shyamchi Aai' often romanticize the emotional bonds within a large family, portraying it as a school of life. For Marathi speakers abroad, 'Moṭhe Kuṭumba' often refers to the community of fellow Maharashtrians who act as a surrogate family.

💡

Agreement is Key

Always remember that 'Kutumba' is neuter. If you say 'Motha Kutumba', people will understand, but it sounds like a beginner mistake.

💬

The 'Aaji' Factor

In a 'Mothe Kutumba', the grandmother (Aaji) is often the real boss. Mentioning her shows cultural awareness.

⚠️

Don't use for 'Great'

If you want to say a family is 'Great' as in 'Famous', use 'Pratishthit'.

🎯

Use 'Oblique' form

Mastering 'Moṭhyā kuṭumbāt' (in a big family) will make you sound much more fluent than just using the base form.
