جھوٹ بولنا

جھوٹ بولنا

To tell a lie

意思

To say something that is not true.

🌍

文化背景

Lying is socially stigmatized but 'Safaid Jhoot' (white lies) are common in social etiquette to avoid conflict. Urdu speakers often use religious phrases like 'Lanat' (curse) in association with lying, reflecting the belief that 'Lying is the root of all sins'. In Urdu poetry, the 'lie' of the beloved is a recurring theme, often treated with a mix of despair and adoration. In cities, 'Jhoot bolna' is often replaced by slang like 'Chhorna' (to let go/throw) in casual peer groups.

💡

The 'Se' Rule

Always remember: You lie 'from' (se) someone in Urdu, not 'to' them.

⚠️

Avoid 'Karna'

Never say 'Jhoot karna'. It sounds very unnatural to native speakers.
