Significado
An intelligent male child.
Contexto cultural
Praising a child as 'aqlli' is often a reflection on the parents' 'tarbiya' (upbringing). It is a communal compliment. The concept of 'Aql' is linked to the heart (qalb) in local philosophy. A smart child is one who feels and thinks correctly. In Uzbek schools, 'Aqlli bola' is the informal equivalent of 'A'lochi' (straight-A student). Younger brothers are often told to be 'aqlli bola' to set an example or to respect their older siblings.
Use it for behavior
If a child is being noisy, say 'Aqlli bola bo'l' to gently ask them to behave. It works better than 'Jim bo'l' (Be quiet).
The 'Jon' suffix
Add '-jon' to 'bola' (Aqlli bolajon) to sound more like a loving native speaker.
