Re: Accents!!

purple is called baiganii, kaasnii, ooda…in Urdu.

there is another ward for white in Urdu and it’s suped [sue pay d]…are you sure elders in ur family say suped and NOT sufeed as you pronounced in your audio clip? Mir Taqi Mir used this word in one of his ash’aar:

yaan k suped o siyeh meN ham ko jo daKhl hai so itnaa hai
raat ko ro ro subHo kiyaa, din ko juuN tuuN shaam kiyaa!

Mir, of course, was an authority in Urdu language! :slight_smile: he is often known as ‘Khudaa-e-suKhan’ :slight_smile:
