뜻
Something that is deliberately hidden and not disclosed.
문화적 배경
The concept of 'Sitr' (covering/veiling) is a significant social value. Keeping things 'في طي الكتمان' is often seen as a way to protect the dignity of individuals and families. In the Levant, people might use the word 'بيننا' (between us) more often in casual speech, but 'في طي الكتمان' appears frequently in their rich tradition of formal literature and drama (Musalsalat). In Gulf business culture, confidentiality is paramount. This phrase is a staple in formal correspondence and high-level tribal or political councils (Majlis). Egyptians might use 'في السر' or 'من تحت لتحت' for sneaky secrets, but they reserve 'في طي الكتمان' for the highest level of official or dramatic secrecy.
Use with 'بقي'
