Зам гарах

зам гарах

Cross the road

意思

Walking across a street.

🌍

文化背景

In Ulaanbaatar, pedestrians often use a hand gesture to stop cars while crossing. It's a sign of mutual awareness. In the countryside, 'зам гарах' might refer to crossing a dirt track. There are no lights, so one must watch for dust clouds from distant cars. Mongolians are often surprised by the strictness of jaywalking laws in countries like Germany or Singapore, as 'зам гарах' is more flexible in UB. Crossing a path in front of an elderly person is sometimes seen as disrespectful. One should wait for them to pass before 'зам гарах'.

💡

The 'Garakh' Rule

Remember that 'Garakh' is the Swiss Army knife of Mongolian verbs. For roads, it always means crossing.

⚠️

Suffix Danger

Never add '-д' to 'Zam' if you are just walking across the street. You'll confuse your friends!

Yes, primarily. If a car is crossing, we usually say 'Зам хөндлөн гарах' or 'Туслах замаас гарах'.

Yes, 'Гудамж гарах' (crossing the street) is also correct and common in cities.

There isn't a direct opposite, but 'Замын хажууд зогсох' means to stand by the side of the road.

There is no single word. We say 'Гарцгүй газраар зам гарах' (Crossing the road where there is no crosswalk).
