Significado
The dark hours of day.
Contexto cultural
During Navratri, 'Raatno samay' is the peak of activity. Unlike many cultures where the night is for sleeping, here it is for 'Garba' (dance). In cities like Ahmedabad and Surat, 'night markets' are a staple. People go out with families specifically during 'Raatno samay' to eat. In villages, 'Raatno samay' is often associated with 'Dayro' (folk music and storytelling sessions) held in open spaces. Many Hindus observe 'Jagran', where they stay awake all night singing hymns. This makes 'Raatno samay' a spiritually significant period.
The 'No' Rule
Always remember that 'no' changes based on the word that follows it. Since 'Samay' is masculine, it's always 'Raatno'.
Don't overcomplicate
At A1, don't worry about 'Ratri-kal'. 'Raatno samay' is perfect for 99% of your needs.
