意味
Hailing local transport.
文化的背景
In Dhaka, rickshaw pullers are often called 'Mama' (maternal uncle) as a sign of informal respect when 'calling' them. In Kolkata, hand-pulled rickshaws still exist in some areas, and 'calling' them is a distinct part of the city's heritage. Young people often use 'রিকশা নামানো' (bringing down a rickshaw) to sound more casual or 'cool'. Foreigners are often advised to let locals 'call' the rickshaw to avoid the 'tourist price' during negotiation.
The 'Ei' Factor
When calling a rickshaw, start with a loud 'Ei!' (Hey!) to ensure the puller hears you over the traffic.
Negotiate First
Always 'call' and then 'negotiate' the price before you sit down. If you sit first, the price might double!

Eye Contact
Making eye contact while calling is more effective than just waving your hand.
Empty or Not?
Look for a folded hood or an empty seat before calling; otherwise, you're calling a rickshaw that's already taken!
