뜻
Trying to avoid someone.
문화적 배경
In Pakistan, avoiding eye contact with elders can sometimes be a sign of 'Adab' (respect), but 'Aankhein Churana' specifically implies you are hiding something or are ashamed. Poets often use this idiom to describe the 'Haya' (modesty) of the beloved. It is seen as a beautiful, feminine trait in classical literature. In a professional setting, if a subordinate 'Aankhein churata hai', it is a major red flag for a manager, indicating a lack of transparency. Younger Urdu speakers use it to describe 'awkward' moments. If someone gets caught in a 'cringe' situation, friends might tease them using this phrase.
Use it for 'Shyness'
Don't just use it for guilt! It's a very polite way to describe someone being shy or modest in a romantic context.
Watch the 'Se'
Always remember to use 'se' (from) with the person being avoided. 'Ali mujh SE aankhein chura raha hai'.
