279: You are mean!


Nemrutsun, nemrut!
= You are mean, cruel!



*nemrut [=mean; cruel; heartless; unfair etc.]


Video is from the Turkish Series "İlişki Durumu: Karışık"
English Title: "Relationship Status: It's Complicated"



Origin of the word:
Nemrut or Nemrud (Turkish: Nemrut) Dağı is a 2,134 m. (7,001 ft) high mountain in southeastern Turkey, notable for the summit where a number of large statues are erected around what is assumed to be a royal tomb from the 1st century BC. 

Nemrut, king of Shinar, was, according to the Book of Genesis and Books of Chronicles, the son of Cush, the great-grandson of Noah. The Bible states that he was "a mighty hunter before the Lord and began to be mighty in the earth". Extra-biblical traditions associating him with the Tower of Babel led to his reputation as a king who was rebellious against God.
