Vocalizing musical sounds with words.
خلفية ثقافية
Singing is a part of daily labor. In rural areas, people sing 'Asāre Gīt' while planting rice to forget the physical strain. The Newar people of Kathmandu valley have a rich tradition of 'Dāpā' music, where they sing devotional songs in groups at local 'Sattals' (rest houses). The Gandharbas are traditional wandering musicians who travel from village to village singing 'Karkha' (ballads) and playing the Sarangi. Karaoke culture is booming in cities like Pokhara and Kathmandu, where 'Gīt gāunu' is a primary weekend social activity.
The '-le' Rule
Always remember to add '-le' to the subject in the past tense (e.g., Maile, Usle, Unile).
Don't say 'Song Speaking'
Never use 'bolnu' for singing. It's a dead giveaway that you're translating literally from another language.
