Bedeutung
Putting on footwear.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Shoes are never worn inside the house. You 'put on shoes' only at the threshold or outside the door. At temples, there is a dedicated 'joda-ghar' (shoe room) where you leave your shoes. You only 'put them back on' after exiting the sacred premises. The 'Jode Lapavne' ritual makes the act of putting on shoes a humorous and expensive affair for the groom. In many traditional Marathi small businesses (pedhi), owners and staff work barefoot. Putting on shoes happens only when they leave the shop.

The Threshold Rule

It is used for both, but since we have two feet, the verb usually takes the plural form 'ghatle'.
