意思
Cleaning the floor with a broom.
文化背景
Sweeping is usually the first task of the day. It is considered bad luck to leave the floor unswept after sunrise. During the festival of Diwali, the broom (Kersuni) is cleaned and worshipped as a symbol of Goddess Lakshmi. In villages, sweeping the 'angan' (front courtyard) and drawing a 'rangoli' is a vital part of a woman's daily routine. It is widely believed that one should not sweep the floor immediately after someone leaves the house for a journey, as it might bring bad luck to the traveler.
Verb Agreement
Remember that in the past tense, it's always 'केर काढला' regardless of who did it, because 'केर' is masculine.
Cultural Taboo
Avoid saying you are sweeping the floor at night in a traditional Marathi home; it might be seen as rude or unlucky.

10 个问题Technically no. For a vacuum, use 'व्हॅक्युम करणे' (vacuum karaṇē). 'Ker kadhne' implies a broom.
'Ker' is specifically floor dust/small debris. 'Kachra' is general trash (paper, plastic, etc.).
Because 'Ker' is a masculine noun in Marathi.
