意思
Preparing the bed for sleeping.
文化背景
Bedding is often laid on the floor (bhuimā) in traditional homes. The layers include a straw mat (gundri) and a cotton mattress (dasnā). Newars often use beautifully woven straw mats called 'Sukul'. Making a bed with a Sukul is a sign of a traditional and clean household. In high altitudes, 'बिस्तारा लगाउनु' involves heavy wool blankets (radi) and thick quilts (sirak) to combat the extreme cold. It is considered rude to let a guest make their own bed. The host will almost always insist on 'बिस्तारा लगाइदिने' (making the bed for them).
Use 'Lagaidinu' for Guests
When making a bed for someone else, always use 'Bistārā lagāidinchhu' to sound polite and helpful.
Avoid 'Banāunu'
Never say 'Bistārā banāunu' unless you are literally building the wooden frame with tools.
