뜻
To cause a commotion or mobilize
문화적 배경
The phrase is often associated with 'Бабини деветини' (Grandmother's tales/remedies). A grandmother's pride is her ability to 'lift a sick grandchild on their feet' with soup and herbs. In the Balkans, community mobilization is a survival mechanism. 'Вдигам на крак' reflects the historical need to react quickly to invaders or natural disasters. Start-up culture in Sofia uses this phrase to describe 'pivoting' or saving a failing company. Many folk songs about 'haiduti' (rebels) use this phrase to describe calling the people to fight for liberation.

Singular vs Plural
