Re: Naysh
Or perhaps it's spelled as "naish." What exactly does this word mean? Sounds like it means nahoosat or inauspicious or something with dire consequences. Growing up I would hear this word from relatives during summer vacations in Pak. Taang hilaana naisha hai. Kaalay kapray pehn'na naish hai. Billi ko tang karna naisha hai. And more recently I heard....Baalon ko khula chor k sona naish hai.
What are some that you have heard? And what do you think are the reasons behind these things being considered "naish"....?
as far as i understand this word, it could really be:
-either neesh [noon, ye, sheen] which is a Faarsii word meaning "nok (sharp N pointed end, Dunk (stinger)"
-or nestii [noon, ye, seen, te, chhoTii ye] which is a compound Faarsii word (nah = no)+ (astii = is) meaning naa-paid/ma'doom/fanaa = non-existent. it also has implied meanings as kaahili / tasaavolii / nahoosat / bad-luck / poverty / bancruptcy etc
Re: Naysh
Naish is a punjabi as well as urdu word which means MANHOOS... like Cursed.. also it means Garha Hua Murda..
and in urdu it means, Kanta, Nokdaar, Zehar, Dank
naish mere khyal hai sirf punjabi ka word hi hai, urdu main na'esh hota hai.
