Significado
Having a very hostile relationship.
Contexto cultural
The idiom reflects the strict rules of traditional Bengali cooking where certain ingredients are never mixed to maintain the 'purity' and 'balance' of a dish. Ayurvedic practitioners (Kavirajs) in Bengal often categorized foods as 'hot' or 'cold.' Mixing incompatible categories was thought to cause illness, leading to the metaphor of social conflict. The rivalry between East Bengal and Mohun Bagan is often described using this idiom. It's more than a game; it's a cultural divide between 'Ghoti' and 'Bangal' communities. In village politics (Gramya Rajniti), property disputes often lead to 'Ada-y Kanch-kola-y' relationships that last for generations.
The 'Y' Factor
Always remember the '-y' suffix. Without it, you're just saying 'ginger green banana,' which sounds like a grocery list!
Too Strong for Friends
Don't use this for a small tiff with a friend. It implies you are now enemies.
