뜻
Description of a young human.
문화적 배경
Children are highly celebrated. It is common for a 'Supra' (feast) to have a special toast for the children, calling them the future of the nation. In the city, you'll often see 'პატარა ბავშვი' in trendy cafes. Georgians rarely leave their kids with sitters; they bring them everywhere. Children in the mountains are often given responsibilities early, but they are still referred to with great tenderness as 'პატარა'. Georgian 'mommy bloggers' use this phrase constantly to tag content. It has a high 'cute factor' in the local algorithm.
The 'A' Rule
Remember that 'პატარა' ends in 'ა', so it never changes its ending when it's in front of a noun. This saves you from learning 7 different case endings!
Don't say 'Little Bit'
Never use 'ცოტა' to describe a child's age. It sounds like you are saying 'a small amount of child meat' to a Georgian ear!
