Noting that the time has passed the expected limit.
文化背景
In rural Bangladesh, time is often measured by prayer times (Fajr, Zohr, etc.). Saying 'Onek deri hoye geche' might mean you missed the congregational prayer. In Kolkata, punctuality is highly valued in professional circles, but 'Onek deri' is a common excuse for the city's notorious traffic jams. Bengali students often use this phrase during exam seasons to express they haven't studied enough and the exam is tomorrow. Bengali weddings are famous for running late. If a guest says 'Onek deri hoye geche', they usually mean they are leaving because it's past midnight, even if the ceremony hasn't finished.

Don't use for people
To say 'He is late', say 'Tar deri hoyeche'. 'Onek deri hoye geche' usually refers to the situation or time itself.
