Or it could be any other words from our own indigenous languages. Like Newari, Gurung, Rai, Tamang, Sherpa, Maithili, etc.

doesn't 'thikkako" mean not less not much but just the right amount?

patan · Mar 7, 2011 1:00 PM

 No its not only meaning the quantity of something but even in terms of activities and actions. Like adequate, balanced and so and so forth. Google it. Hit some Nepali words.

"thyachha" basyo, "bwanga" ladyo, thyaccha and bwanga and many others, i dont remember what do u exactly call it in nepali grammer (there was some term, ke garne just pass bhako, i forgot) but  i think even hindi doesnt have such words. I might be wrong

prankster · Mar 7, 2011 1:16 PM

@nmaharjan that was it, thanks

prankster · Mar 7, 2011 1:41 PM

Also,  typical nepai sounding words like Doko, Boko, Namlo, Nanglo, Janto etc are believed to not share any root with sanskrit or any other language.

dynamite · Mar 7, 2011 1:44 PM

 I don't think there is any word for nakali too. 

bodmas · Mar 7, 2011 1:52 PM

 Not saman nakali, I mean kt lai bhanne Nakali. 

bodmas · Mar 7, 2011 1:52 PM

How bout janai doesn't nakkali mean fake :)

patan · Mar 7, 2011 1:54 PM

 yeah nakkli is used heavily in hindi too, asli nakkli types, when you use it for a girl, it simply refers to her fake beautly, so its not purely npelai. I think :)

Dissident · Mar 7, 2011 1:56 PM

Kurkuchha would be heels. How about Bhunte, dalli, Soaltee etc? Anukaratmak is definately unique to Nepali language.

Stiffler · Mar 7, 2011 1:59 PM

I doubt anukaranatmak is unique to nepali language. tring, ring, boom. bang, splat are some imititative descriptive words in English. Also animals sounds like moo, cockadoodle doo, chirp, screech, caw, chatter, chuckle, howl,  growl and hundreds others are all imitative descriptive words in English.

dynamite · Mar 7, 2011 2:12 PM

 So nakkali mori = fake mori ???  I don't think so. 

bodmas · Mar 7, 2011 2:55 PM

nakkali = chammak challo (in hindi)

prankster · Mar 7, 2011 3:01 PM

There is a difference between Anukaranatmak and the words you used. Boom, ring, Moo and everything else you listed are SOUNDS. Ma NITHRUKKA bhije. This is anukaranatmak, what's the exact translation? U sutukka ayo. There is no exact translation for SUTUKKA.

Stiffler · Mar 7, 2011 3:25 PM

Stiffler bro, Dyanga, gudunga, chyarra, fussa etc are also anukaranatmak, which are sounds. And also exist in other languages. I am just clarifying that anukaranatmak sabdas don't just exist in nepali. And there is an exact translation for sutukka, which is SNEAKILY. Last edited: 07-Mar-11 03:38 PM

 C'mon guys. Stick to the context. Look at the context. Aba khaapsey bhaneko Sherpa roti hola re tara khaapsey ta arule banaudaina kina ki tyo ta exclusive khaana ho, its not a describing word for anything. You get what I am saying? Jastai 'JOITINGREY' bhaneko swaasni ko farya muni lukney manchey. The Indians have 'Joruka Gulaam' but no one else. C'mon. Bring it. I'm sure we have like tons more. 'Thyaccha' and all are cool too. But a little bit more compact. Its a good start though. 'Bhustikrey' means khanchuwa, kaam nalagney manchey. English translation ko closest might be 'Freeloader' but it doesn't encapsulate 'kaam nagarney'. You see what I'm saying? 'Nepti' might mean someone with a blunt nose. English or Hindi might not have it. See what I'm sayin guys . . . Make it rain. C'mon.  

Thebubblemouth · Mar 7, 2011 8:06 PM

Dynamite bro I see your point, but do you see mine with other anukaranatmak words I presented? I might not agree with the translation of sutukka. Sneakily is derived from Sneak and is simply and adverb of it. Sutukka has no root, i.e. not a derivation. Sneakily is NOT an exact translation, merely a synonym.

Stiffler · Mar 7, 2011 8:33 PM

 Wakka lagney haamro Nepaliharuko baani. Kei kura paunu hunna ek arka sanga thak-thuk gardai baschan. Chaainey kura kei gardaina. Uffffff I'm out. 

Thebubblemouth · Mar 7, 2011 11:57 PM

tori lahure, twake, sukulgunda, bhatmara, bidhyanasta, bhakunde bhoot(lol)

terobaaje · Mar 8, 2011 12:10 AM

@the bubblemouth: 'henpecked' is the English word for joitigre... So what u are saying is wrong!

The Lonely Traveler · Mar 8, 2011 12:20 AM

Terobaaje bro loved ur words, specially bidhyanasta and bhakunde bhoot...  To add some more, I don't think there is any translation for these words as well :::gundruk, maseura, gobarganesh, paduwa, torilaure, gorumute etc etc    Last edited: 08-Mar-11 12:51 PM

Fat beast · Mar 8, 2011 9:14 AM

Haha what we should do is create english words for these nepali words Sukulgunda = Carpet punk bidhyanasta = education amnesia
