뜻
Referring to a future time.
문화적 배경
The concept of 'Nepali Time' means that 'pachhi' can be quite elastic. If someone says they will arrive 'एकछिन पछि' (after a little while), it could mean 5 minutes or 50 minutes. In Hindu rituals in Nepal, the sequence is vital. 'Pachhi' is used to denote the order of offerings to different deities. In the mountains, 'pachhi' is used for spatial orientation because there are no street signs. You navigate by what is 'behind' or 'after' a natural landmark. It is polite to let elders go first. You would say 'तपाईं पछि' (after you) to show respect.
The '-e' Rule
Always remember to change the verb to the '-e' form before 'pachhi'. It's the most common grammar mistake for beginners!
Don't use for 'Back'
If you want to say 'Go back', use 'Pharka'. 'Pachhi' will just make people wait for you later.
