Significado
Describing difficult or labor-intensive tasks.
Contexto cultural
Hard work is often associated with the 'Supra' (feast). There is a cultural understanding that one must work hard to earn the right to celebrate. In Kakheti, 'mdzime samushao' specifically refers to the 'Rtveli' (grape harvest), which is physically exhausting but a point of pride. Historically, building the famous Svan towers was the ultimate 'mdzime samushao,' requiring the transport of massive stones by hand. There is a generational gap in how 'mdzime samushao' is viewed, with older generations valuing physical labor and younger generations applying it to the tech sector.
Use for empathy
If a friend looks tired, saying 'Mdzime samushao gqonda?' (Did you have hard work?) is a great way to show you care.
Don't over-use
If you call every small task 'mdzime samushao,' you might sound like you are complaining too much.
