뜻
Stating a place is full.
문화적 배경
In Armenian minibuses (marshrutkas), 'Տեղ չկա' is often a suggestion rather than a rule. Drivers might still try to fit you in if you are willing to stand in a very tight space. At a traditional Armenian feast, saying 'Տեղ չկա' regarding your stomach is a polite way to decline more food without offending the host. In Yerevan, 'Տեղ չկա' is a common sign on parking lots during peak hours, often accompanied by a hand gesture (shaking the hand side to side). The concept of 'place' (tegh) is often linked to identity. 'No place' can poetically refer to the feeling of being an outsider.
The Hand Gesture
When saying 'Tegh chka' in a car or parking context, Armenians often wave their hand flat, palm down, from side to side.
Don't be too blunt
In a formal office, 'Տեղ չկա' might sound a bit too direct. Try 'Այս պահին հնարավորություն չկա' (There is no possibility at this moment).

Digital Storage
Use this phrase when your computer warns you about disk space. It's the most natural way to describe it.
The Marshrutka Rule
If a driver says 'Tegh chka', he usually means 'no seats'. You can still ask 'Կարելի՞ է կանգնած' (Is it possible standing?).
