Kullarõhu

Kullarõhu is a term used in Estonian to describe the pressure or weight of something. It literally translates to "chicken pressure" or "rooster pressure" and is often used colloquially to express a feeling of burden, stress, or an overwhelming situation. The phrase doesn't refer to a literal physiological measurement but rather a metaphorical one. It can be applied to a wide range of scenarios, from the anxiety associated with a difficult task or deadline to the general feeling of being weighed down by responsibilities. The intensity of kullarõhu can vary, and it's a common expression in everyday Estonian conversation to convey a sense of being overwhelmed or under pressure. It implies a feeling of being squeezed or compressed by external forces or internal anxieties. While the literal translation might seem unusual, its idiomatic meaning is well understood by Estonian speakers as a representation of mental or emotional strain.
