معنی
The evening meal
زمینه فرهنگی
Dinner is the most important meal for family bonding. It often includes 'Dal Makhani' or 'Sarson da Saag' in winter. The concept of 'Langar' is a community dinner where everyone sits on the floor to eat, regardless of status. Late-night dining is a trend. Restaurants are often packed at 10:00 PM. In countries like Canada or the UK, 'Raat da khana' is the time when families maintain their heritage by speaking Punjabi.
Gender Matters
Always remember 'Khana' is a boy! Use 'da', not 'di'.
The Roti Rule
If you are in a village, say 'Raat di roti'. You'll sound like a local!
