意味
A command to cease an action or movement.
文化的背景
Using 'Niruthu' with a hand gesture (palm out) is common. However, pointing a finger while saying it is considered very aggressive. The word 'Niruthu' is used, but 'Nippattu' is less common than in Chennai. 'Aga' is sometimes used as a soft 'wait/stop'. In Tamil-speaking offices, 'Niruthu' is rarely used. People prefer 'Hold on' or 'Pause' even when speaking Tamil, or the very formal 'Niruthungal'. Heroic characters often use a powerful, bass-heavy 'Niruthu!' to stop a villain's monologue. It's a classic cinematic trope.
The 'Nga' Rule
If in doubt, always add '-nga' (Niruthunga). It's the safest middle ground for politeness.
Don't Shout
Saying 'Niruthu' loudly can be interpreted as a sign of anger. Keep your tone neutral unless it's an emergency.

Hand Signals
Always use a hand signal when telling a driver to stop; it's more effective than the word alone in noisy traffic.
Object First
In Tamil, the object usually comes before the verb: 'Vandiyai (Object) + Niruthu (Verb)'.
