A2 Idiom خنثی

এক ঢিলে দুই পাখি

এক ঢল দই পখ

Two birds with one stone

معنی

Solving two problems at once

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

The phrase reflects the agrarian roots of Bengal where 'dhil' (dried mud) was a common tool for children to play or shoo away birds. In modern Dhaka or Kolkata, using this idiom in a meeting shows you are a 'smart' worker who values time and resources. Many Bengali folk tales feature a 'clever' character (like Gopal Bhar) who uses his wit to solve multiple problems at once, embodying this idiom. Teachers often use this to encourage students to find connections between subjects—learning history to improve language skills is 'এক ঢিলে দুই পাখি'.

🎯

Use it for praise

If a friend tells you a smart plan, say 'একেবারে এক ঢিলে দুই পাখি!' to impress them with your natural Bengali.

⚠️

Don't use 'Pathor'

Even though 'pathor' means stone, it sounds very unnatural in this idiom. Stick to 'dhil'.
