뜻
Suggests that people often desire what they are not allowed to have.
문화적 배경
In the Levant, this phrase is often used with a shrug of the shoulders to explain why people are attracted to 'trouble' or complicated social situations. Egyptians use this phrase frequently in humor. It's often applied to food, especially during Ramadan when people crave exactly what they can't eat during the day. In the Gulf, it might be used in a more conservative context to explain why youth are interested in Western trends that are sometimes restricted. The phrase is well-understood but often competes with local Darija proverbs about 'the heart wanting what it wants.'
The 'Ain' and 'Ghain' Challenge
This phrase is great for practicing the difference between the 'Ain (ع) in Mamnu' and the Ghain (غ) in Marghub. One is a squeeze, the other is a gargle!
Use it as a joke
If someone catches you eating a snack you shouldn't, just say 'Kullu mamnu'in marghub' with a smile. It's a universal excuse.
