A group of related people.
زمینه فرهنگی
The 'Sanyukta Parivār' (joint family) is the traditional ideal. It provides a safety net for the elderly and childcare for the young. In the Newar community of Kathmandu Valley, the 'Guthi' system extends the concept of family to a wider social and religious group that manages community affairs. In some Himalayan communities, family structures were historically polyandrous (one wife, multiple brothers), though this is now rare. Family remains the core unit for mountain expeditions. Nuclear families are becoming common in cities like Kathmandu due to space constraints and job requirements, leading to a rise in 'Old Age Homes,' which was previously a taboo concept.
Use Honorifics
When talking about family members, always use the honorific verb forms (e.g., 'hunuhuncha' instead of 'cha') to show respect.
Don't forget the '-lāī'
If you say 'I love my family,' you must say 'Parivārlāī māyā garchu.' Skipping '-lāī' is a common beginner mistake.

Gharparivār for Warmth

Don't be afraid to ask 'Parivārmā sabai thik cha?' (Is everyone in the family okay?). It's a very common and appreciated greeting.
