Getting ready for something.
Cultural Background
Preparation for festivals like Navratri involves 'Garba' classes and 'Chaniya Choli' shopping months in advance. The 'Vyapari' (Merchant) culture of Gujarat emphasizes 'Puri Taiyari' (Full Preparation) before any negotiation. Gujarati weddings are elaborate. 'Lagan ni taiyari' involves a series of mini-events like 'Sangeet' and 'Mehndi'. Preparation involves 'Manjha' (thread) coloring and kite selection, a major social activity in January.
The '-ni' Rule
Always use '-ni' before 'taiyari' when mentioning what you are preparing for. It's the golden rule for this phrase.
Gender Trap
Don't say 'Taiyari karyu'. Because 'Taiyari' is feminine, it must be 'Taiyari kari'.
