뜻
Extracting milk from a cow.
문화적 배경
The cow is worshipped as 'Gau Mata' (Mother Cow). Milking is done with great care and respect, often after a quick prayer. In many villages, the responsibility of milking falls on the women of the house, who start their day at 4 or 5 AM. During Gai Tihar, cows are not milked in some regions as a sign of respect, allowing the calf to have all the milk for a day. In high altitudes, people milk 'Nak' (female Yak). The milk is very thick and used to make 'Chhurpi' (hard cheese).
The 'le' Rule
Always remember 'मैले' (Maile) when you say 'I milked' in the past tense. It's the most common grammar mistake for learners.
Respect the Animal
When talking about milking in a village, use respectful language. It's seen as a vital, life-giving task.

Never use 'duhunu' for plant-based milks. Use 'nikalnu' (extract) instead.

자주 묻는 질문
10 질문Yes, 'बाख्रा दुहुनु' (milking a goat) is perfectly correct.
It is a neutral, standard word. It's appropriate in any context.
It is called 'दूध दुहुने मेसिन' (Dudh duhune mesin).
No, that is 'दूध चुसाउनु' (dudh chusaunu) or 'दूध खुवाउनु' (dudh khuwaunu).
Yes, it can mean taking money from someone repeatedly, but use it carefully.
You say 'म दूध दुहुँदैछु' (Ma dudh duhudai-chu).
Yes, though it is traditionally more common for women, men also do it, especially in commercial farms.
In many Nepali dialects, the intervocalic 'h' becomes very weak.
There isn't a direct opposite, but 'दूध सुक्नु' (milk drying up) is the natural end of the process.
You can say 'परिस्थितिको फाइदा उठाउनु', but 'दुहुनु' is used metaphorically in very informal slang.
