意味
Command to halt.
文化的背景
The phrase 'Nil, Gavani, Sel' is the most famous safety mnemonic in the state, taught to every school child. In Sri Lanka, the word 'நிற்றல்' (Nitral) is often used in formal contexts where Indian Tamil might use 'நிற்பது' (Nirpadhu). The word 'Nil' is often used dramatically in 'punch dialogues' where a hero commands a villain to stop. In the Thirukkural, 'Nil' is used to describe the virtue of 'standing' by one's word or ethics.
The Respect Rule
Always use 'Nillungal' with anyone older than you, even by a few years.
Spoken vs. Written
Write 'Nil' on signs, but say 'Nillu' to your friends for a more natural sound.
