뜻
A house built long ago.
문화적 배경
Traditional old houses (hovli) are designed with a central courtyard to provide privacy and a cool microclimate. The 'eski uy' is often seen as more 'barakali' (blessed) than modern apartments. The 'Eski Shahar' (Old City) area survived the 1966 earthquake better than many expected, and its 'eski uylar' are now a mix of historical preservation and modern renovation. In these ancient cities, an 'eski uy' might be hundreds of years old and made of sun-dried brick, often serving as a boutique hotel or a family museum today. In villages, the 'eski uy' is usually the 'ota uyi' (father's house), where the youngest son typically stays to look after his aging parents.
The 'Old Friend' Exception
While 'eski' is for objects, you can say 'eski do'st' to mean a friend you've known for a long time. It doesn't mean the friend is old in age!
Avoid 'Qari'
Never call a house 'qari'. It's a common mistake for English speakers because English uses 'old' for everything.

Use 'Hovli' for Houses
In Uzbekistan, most 'old houses' are 'hovli' (houses with yards). Using 'eski hovli' sounds more natural than 'eski uy' if you're talking about a traditional home.
Respect the 'Eski'
Calling someone's house 'eski' isn't necessarily an insult; it often implies the house has history and character.
