المعنى
Feeling great pride in something
خلفية ثقافية
Pride is often collective. A single person's success 'swells the chest' of the entire family or village. The idiom is linked to the 'Bir Gorkhali' image—brave soldiers who stand tall and never back down. With the rise of Cricket in Nepal, this phrase is the #1 most used idiom in sports journalism and fan comments. Parents often use this to express their love and approval, as verbal 'I love you' is less common than 'I am proud of you'.
Use with 'Garva'
To sound more natural, add 'Garva le' (with pride) before the phrase: 'Garva le chhati phulyo'.
Don't use for Arrogance
If someone is being a 'show-off' in a bad way, use 'Ghamanda' instead of this idiom.
