Bedeutung
Requesting an additional small quantity of something.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Hospitality is paramount. If you don't ask for more, the host might feel they didn't provide enough. Similar hospitality norms apply, though the phrasing might vary slightly in local languages like Tamil or Telugu. In professional settings, asking for 'thoda aur' (time/resources) is seen as a sign of being thorough.
Softening the request
Always add 'kripya' (please) to make it sound very polite.
The 'Thoda' habit
Indians often use 'thoda' even when they want a lot, just to be polite.
