意思
Still wanting something one saw.
文化背景
The concept of 'Achk' (Eye) is central to Armenian folk beliefs. It is common to see 'Aչքի ուլունք' (blue eye beads) on babies or in cars to protect against the 'evil eye' of those whose 'eye might remain' on them with envy. Similar to Armenian culture, many Middle Eastern cultures believe that unexpressed desire (the eye remaining) can cause physical harm to the object or person being admired. While the idiom is Armenian, the feeling is universal in modern consumerism, often described as 'Buyer's Remorse' (but for the item NOT bought) or 'Window Shopping Blues.' A host will often use the negative form of this idiom to ensure their guest feels fully satisfied, reflecting the high value placed on generosity.
Complimenting
Use this phrase to compliment someone's taste. Telling a friend 'Աչքս մնաց քո նոր տան վրա' is a very warm way to say their house is beautiful.
Don't be too greedy
Using this phrase too often about other people's things might make you sound envious (achkakshir).
