معنی
A negative repetitive behavior.
زمینه فرهنگی
In Jainism, which is prominent in Gujarat, habits are seen as 'Karma' binders. Quitting bad habits is part of 'Pratikraman' (repentance). In business circles, 'kharaab adat' refers to financial indiscipline, like delayed payments or lack of transparency. In villages, 'kharaab adat' is often used by village elders (Panchayat) to maintain social order and discourage vices like gambling. Younger Gujaratis use the term to discuss 'digital detox' and moving away from fast food habits.
Gender Matters
Always remember 'Adat' is feminine. This is the most common mistake for learners.
Don't be too harsh
Calling someone's behavior a 'kharaab adat' is a direct criticism. Use it carefully with superiors.
