Stop it / That is enough

意味

Used to ask someone to stop an action or quantity.

🌍

文化的背景

Hosts will often ignore the first 'Bas kijiye' as a sign of their generosity. You may need to say it multiple times with increasing (but still polite) firmness. In Lucknow and Delhi, 'Bas kijiye' is often paired with 'Tasliya' (satisfaction), implying you are perfectly satisfied and need no more. In office settings, 'Bas kijiye' is used to conclude a meeting or a discussion point without sounding dismissive of others' ideas. During Ramadan, when breaking fast (Iftar), 'Bas kijiye' is used frequently as people tend to over-serve fried foods and drinks.

💡

The Hand Gesture

Place your hand palm down over your plate or glass while saying this to be extra clear and polite.

⚠️

Don't be too loud

Saying 'Bas kijiye!' loudly can sound like you are angry. Keep the tone soft and melodic.
