意味
Indicating that something is not heavy.
文化的背景
In Tamil households, 'light food' (Lēsāṉa sāppāṭu) usually refers to Idli or Dosa, which are steamed or fermented, as opposed to 'heavy' meals like Biryani or Parotta. The concept of 'Karma' is often viewed as a weight. Doing good deeds is said to make the soul 'lēsu' (light), while bad deeds make it 'ganam' (heavy). In Sri Lanka, 'Ilēsu' is more common than 'Lēsu'. It is also frequently used to mean 'easy' in a way that is less common in Indian Tamil. In Tamil social media, 'Mind lēsāka' is often used in memes to describe the feeling after a Friday evening or finishing an exam.

Brightness Trap
If you say a room is 'lēsāka', people will think you are talking about the weight of the furniture, not the light!
