意思
Opening a window for air.
文化背景
Windows are considered the 'eyes' of the house. Intricately carved wooden windows (Tikijhyā) are designed so people inside can see out, but people outside cannot see in. Opening a window in the morning is often accompanied by a short prayer or greeting to the sun (Surya). It is considered bad luck to keep a house completely dark and closed during the day. In high altitudes, windows are kept small and usually closed to trap heat. Opening a window is a rare event, usually only done during the peak of a sunny day. Due to high pollution in cities like Kathmandu, people often debate whether to 'Jhyāl kholnu' for air or keep it closed to avoid dust (dhulo).
The 'Na' Factor
Adding 'na' at the end (Jhyāl kholnuhos na) makes the request sound much softer and friendlier.
Monkeys!
In places like Swayambhunath or Pashupatinath, 'Jhyāl kholnu' can be dangerous as monkeys might jump in. Always check for monkeys first!

Asking First
In a shared space, always ask 'Jhyāl खोलूँ?' before opening it. It's a key part of Nepali social etiquette.
