Significado
Commenting on a low price.
Contexto cultural
Bargaining is expected in local markets. If you don't say 'Ali sasto garnus' (make it a bit cheaper), you might end up paying the 'tourist price'. In the old markets of Ason and Indra Chowk, 'sasto' items are often sold in bulk. Buying in 'dharni' (a traditional unit) makes things 'sasto'. The rise of 'Sasto' brands (like Sasto Deal) shows how the word has become a marketing tool for the growing middle class. In villages, 'sasto' might refer to barter value. Something is 'sasto' if it requires less grain or labor in exchange.
The 'Rahecha' Trick
Use 'Sasto rahecha' instead of 'Sasto cha' when you just discovered the price. it sounds more natural and surprised.
Quality Warning
If a shopkeeper says 'Sasto cha' too many times, be careful—the quality might be very low!
