The act of weeping or wailing.
Contexto cultural
The 'Kanya Biday' (bride's departure) is a moment where 'Kānnākāṭi' is expected. It signifies the deep bond between the daughter and her parents. Classic 'Tollywood' movies often feature long scenes of 'Kānnākāṭi' to build emotional tension and catharsis for the audience. In villages, 'Kānnākāṭi' during funerals can be very vocal and rhythmic, sometimes involving professional mourners in older traditions.
The 'Echo' Rule
Whenever you see a word ending in '-āṭi' or '-āṭā' in Bengali, it usually implies a messy or collective version of the root word.
