意思
Describing something of high worth.
文化背景
Gold is the ultimate 'Kimti' object in Punjabi weddings. It is not just jewelry; it is a form of financial security and social status. The concept of 'Amrit Vela' (the early morning hours) is considered the most 'Kimti' time for meditation and prayer. Land (ਜ਼ਮੀਨ) is considered the most valuable possession for a Punjabi farmer, often referred to as 'precious mother'. A guest's visit is often described as 'valuable' to show extreme respect and humility.
The 'i' Rule
Remember that 'Kimti' ends in 'i', and it stays that way! No need to change it for masculine or feminine nouns.
Politeness
Using 'Kimti' for someone's time or advice is a great way to sound more fluent and respectful in Punjabi culture.

Avoid 'Mehnga' for People

常见问题
5 个问题It's better to use it for their qualities, like 'ਤੁਹਾਡੀ ਦੋਸਤੀ ਕੀਮਤੀ ਹੈ' (Your friendship is valuable). Calling a person 'Kimti' directly is rare and poetic.
'Kimti' usually implies a high price or great worth, while 'Anmol' means 'priceless'—something that cannot be bought with money.
No, it is an invariant adjective. It remains 'Kimti' for both singular and plural.
It is neutral. You can use it with friends, at work, or in a shop.
Just add 'bahut' before it: 'ਇਹ ਬਹੁਤ ਕੀਮਤੀ ਹੈ' (Iha bahut kīmatī hai).
