意思
Working hard or putting in serious effort.
文化背景
The concept of 'bidii' is central to the national motto 'Uhuru na Kazi' (Freedom and Work), popularized by Julius Nyerere. It suggests that political freedom is meaningless without the hard work to build the nation. In Kenya, 'bidii' is often linked to the 'hustle' culture. It is common to see 'Bidii' as a name for small businesses, like 'Bidii Hardware' or 'Bidii Posho Mill'. In the coastal islands, 'bidii' is often used in the context of religious and traditional education (Madrasa). It carries a sense of spiritual discipline. In Uganda, where Swahili is often a second or third language, 'kufanya bidii' is frequently used in trade and military contexts to command excellence.
