Re: Names in urdu of fruits and vegetables
*swede kia hotaa hai? oh UK meN rutabaga kahte ahiN to use urdu emN shaljam yaa shalGham kahte haiN *
Rutebaga isn't shaljam. Shaljam is turnip. However, there is no urdu equivalent of rutabaga
Re: Names in urdu of fruits and vegetables
There are different types of lettuce such as iceberg lettuce and romaine lettuce. Also, I am pretty sure cauliflower is = phool ghobi and cabbage is - band ghobi. Rutabaga looks like turnip but a lot larger in size.
