معنی
Describing new items.
زمینه فرهنگی
Buying new clothes is mandatory for the 'Deepavali' festival. It is often the biggest expense for families during the year. During weddings, the bride changes into several 'Puthiya Thuni' (specifically silk sarees) throughout the ceremony. It is common to apply a small bit of turmeric to the corner of a new cloth to signify it is auspicious and ready to wear. The term 'உடை' (udai) is used slightly more frequently than 'துணி' (thuni) in some formal Sri Lankan Tamil dialects, but 'Puthiya Thuni' remains universally understood.
Shorten it!
Use 'Pudhu Thuni' in shops to sound more like a local.
The Turmeric Dot
If you see a yellow stain on someone's new shirt, don't tell them it's dirty! It's likely turmeric for good luck.
