뜻
To give someone motivation or a boost to their morale.
문화적 배경
In Iranian wrestling (Koshti), the crowd's rhythmic clapping and chanting are seen as essential 'wind' for the athlete. Without this communal energy, the athlete is thought to lose their 'flag'. Classical poets like Hafez often use 'Bād' (Wind) as a divine messenger. This idiom is a modern, secularized version of that spiritual concept where external forces give life to the soul. In Iranian offices, managers often use this phrase during 'No-Ruz' (New Year) to motivate staff for the coming year, emphasizing collective pride. The role of the 'elder' in a family is often to 'put wind in the flags' of the younger generation, providing the confidence needed to navigate life's challenges.

The 'Double Chin' Trap
