뜻
Feeling extreme emotional pain or grief.
문화적 배경
In Nepal, expressing deep sadness is not seen as a weakness but as a shared human experience. 'Mutu Phutnu' is a way to invite others to share in your grief. Almost 50% of folk songs mention a broken heart. It is the most common theme in the 'Viraha' (separation) genre of music. Great poets like Laxmi Prasad Devkota used the imagery of the heart shattering to describe the plight of the poor in Nepal. On TikTok and Facebook, Nepalis use the broken heart emoji 💔 alongside the phrase 'Mutu Phutyo' to react to tragic news or sad stories.
Use with 'Mero'
