Infographics 2 - Some more definitions

Jun 04, 2025

So, previous chapters saw the usage of few more bangla words. Let me clear their meanings real quick!

Bhat-Badi - It’s also known as Mukhe-Bhat, or just Bhat (Bhat means Rice). In many other parts of India, it’s instead called Annaprashan. It is a ceremony to celebrate the introduction of solid food to an infant. In Indian culture, the child cannot eat rice until the annaprashana has occurred. It's typically performed around six months of age and signifies the baby's transition from exclusively breastfeeding or formula-feeding to solid food. Like all the Bengali rituals, it accompanies a feast to behold.

Ghorer shotru Vibhishon -  It could be translated to “House’s enemy Vibhishon”. It’s an old saying about having a traitor or enemy right inside your own house, or among your close ones. Yeah, it’s taken from the Ramayan. Ravan’s brother Vibhishan (spelt Vibhishon in Bangla) betrayed him and sided with Lord Ram. So that’s the little backstory about this Idiom. I think they have a similar saying in Hindi too, just not this direct. 

Ruti - It’s rather called Roti or Chapati in the rest of India. Ruti is a thin, unleavened, circular flatbread, primarily made from whole wheat flour (atta) and water. It's a staple food in the Indian subcontinent and many other regions. It’s often served with curries or other dishes. 

Torkari - These are dishes that accompany Ruti or Bhat. They can be curries or a gravy. They can be made with a mix of many vegetables or just one, and accompany many spices.

That’s all. Don’t forget to read the Author’s note - 2 next!

Bhat - Badi was a new word for me, rest was predictable, and Torkari is quite familiar to me, i used to read alot of hindi comic books and thats where i came to know about it. "Tarkari" literally means "Sabzi" or "Veggies". Its just the difference of spelling in Bangla.
