뜻
A significant sum of money.
문화적 배경
During Eid-ul-Adha, people spend a 'Bari Raqam' on sacrificial animals. It is a status symbol and a topic of neighborhood gossip. Weddings are the most common context for 'Bari Raqam'. Families save for decades to spend a 'Bari Raqam' on a single week of festivities. The concept of 'Zakat' involves calculating 2.5% of one's wealth. For the wealthy, this results in a 'Bari Raqam' being donated to the poor annually. In Pakistan and India, real estate is the preferred investment. People often carry 'Bari Raqam' in cash for property deals, though this is changing with digital banking.
Use it for 'The Total'
Use 'Bari Raqam' when talking about the total cost of something big, like a wedding or a business deal. It makes you sound more like a native speaker than just saying 'bohat paisay'.
Gender Alert
Never say 'Bara Raqam'. It is the most common mistake for learners. Always keep it feminine!
