B1 Expression 中性

हे खूप महाग आहे.

ह खप महग आह 1

This is very expensive.

意思

Commenting on the high price of an item.

🌍

文化背景

In local markets (Mandai), the first price quoted is rarely the final price. Saying 'He khup mahag aahe' is a polite way to signal you want to haggle. Marathi literature often highlights the 'Madhyamvargi' (middle-class) struggle with rising prices, making this a very common theme in daily conversation. During Diwali, prices of sweets and clothes skyrocket. This phrase is heard everywhere during the festive rush. While being frugal is valued, being a 'kanjus' (miser) is not. There is a fine line between complaining about price and being seen as stingy.

💡

Use 'Baapre'

Prefix the phrase with 'Baapre!' (Oh my!) to sound more like a native speaker when reacting to a price.

⚠️

Gender Matters

Don't forget to change 'He' to 'Ha' or 'Hi' if you are naming the object. 'Ha amba' (this mango), 'Hi saadi' (this saree).

The 'Far' Factor

No, the adjective 'mahag' stays the same. Only the pronoun (Ha/Hi/He) and the noun change.

Not usually. Calling a person 'mahag' doesn't mean anything. You can say someone's 'lifestyle' is mahag.

The opposite is 'svast' (स्वस्त), which means cheap or inexpensive.

No, it's a standard part of bargaining in India. Just keep your tone polite.

You can say 'garjepeksha mahag' (more expensive than needed) or just emphasize 'khuuuup' (veeeery).
