뜻
Postponing a conversation.
문화적 배경
Armenians are very social. 'Heto kkhosenk' is often a genuine promise, not just a polite brush-off. If you say it, expect the other person to actually expect a call or meeting later. In the fast-paced life of the capital, this phrase is used more rapidly and frequently, often shortened in pronunciation to 'Heto k'khosank'. In Western Armenian communities (Lebanon, USA, France), you might hear 'Pidi khosink' instead of 'Kkhosenk'.
The 'Jan' Factor
Adding 'jan' (Հետո կխոսենք, ջան) makes the postponement sound much warmer and friendlier.
Don't Overuse
If you say this to the same person 5 times without actually talking, they will think you are avoiding them.
