意思
A large urban area.
文化背景
In Armenia, 'Մեծ քաղաք' almost always refers to Yerevan. Because Yerevan contains about 1/3 of the country's population, it is the primary urban reference point. For Armenians in the diaspora, 'Մեծ քաղաք' often refers to hubs like Glendale/LA or Moscow, where the community is large and urbanized. During the Soviet era, 'Մեծ քաղաք' was associated with industrialization and the 'New Man'. Many songs from this era praise the growing big cities. Armenian writers like Shirvanzade often used the big city (like Baku or Tbilisi) as a symbol of moral chaos and capitalist greed.
