Signification
Having a large workload.
Contexte culturel
In the modern startup culture of Tbilisi, 'ბევრი სამუშაო' is often said with a sense of pride, indicating that a company is growing fast. During the grape harvest (Rtveli), 'ბევრი სამუშაო' refers to the intense physical labor of picking and pressing grapes, which involves the whole community. Using 'work' as an excuse is one of the few ways to politely decline an invitation to a long dinner without offending the host. Georgian students often use this phrase to bond over the shared stress of the national exams (Ertiani Erovnuli Gamotsebi).
The Singular Rule
Always remember: 1 work, 100 work, 'much' work—it's all singular in Georgian!
Sakme vs Samushao
If you're going to the grocery store, don't call it 'samushao.' That's for your job!
