Roughly / On the whole

Giving a general estimation

🌍

خلفية ثقافية

The phrase is used to avoid 'Nazar' (the evil eye). By not being too precise about success or wealth, people feel they are protecting themselves. In intellectual circles, using this phrase shows you are open to other perspectives and not being dogmatic. Time is often measured by the sun or tasks, so 'motamutibhabe' is the standard way to discuss schedules.

🎯

The 'So-So' Response

If someone asks 'How are you?', just say 'Motamuti'. It's the most natural native response.

⚠️

Avoid in Exams

Don't use this in math exams! Teachers want 'thik-thak' (exact) answers, not 'motamuti' ones.
