Chhori / Chhora = Yateem / Anaat in Sindhi

We say girl ‘chhokri’ in Sindhi, but its considered something odd in other cultures. In our childhood, we went to Quetta and visited a Baloch friend of our uncle. In there house, there was a girl and we cousins were speaking in Sindhi. Someone from us looked towards the girl and said 'Hee chhokri keir aahe - who is this girl?
