意思
Asking someone to remain silent or stop explaining.
文化背景
Venting about public services (transport, electricity) is a common social bonding ritual where this phrase is the star. Parents use this to stop children from making excuses, emphasizing authority and 'knowing better.' In the 'Oxford of the East,' directness is sometimes tempered with this phrase to avoid long, unnecessary debates. Commuters use this to share the 'pain' of the rush hour without needing to describe the specific struggle.
Use with 'Tar'
Add 'tar' after the topic to sound more like a native speaker. 'Traffic-baddal tar kahi sangu naka!'
Watch your tone
If said with a smile, it's friendly venting. If said with a frown, it's a harsh shut-down.
