意思
Switching on a lamp or light source.
文化背景
Lighting a 'Sandhya Pradip' (evening lamp) is a sacred duty for the daughter-in-law or mother of the house to bring prosperity. On February 21st (Language Martyrs' Day), thousands of people light candles at monuments to honor those who died for the Bengali language. In villages without consistent electricity, 'Kupie' (small kerosene lamps) are still lit, and the phrase 'Alo jwalano' carries a literal sense of survival. Light is a recurring theme in Rabindranath Tagore's work, symbolizing the soul's journey from ignorance to truth.
The 'A' sound
Make sure to say 'JwAlano' (causative) and not 'JwOlano' (intransitive). The 'A' sound indicates you are the one doing the action.
No 'Opening' Lights
Never say 'Alo kholo'. It is the most obvious sign of a non-native speaker.

Evening Respect
In many homes, when the light is first lit in the evening, people do a small 'pranam' (bow) to the light as a sign of respect.
