We Bet You Didn’t Know What These Everyday English Words Were Called In Hindi

“Kya main apka jwaalak le sakti hoon?”

That’s the way you’ll ask for a lighter to enjoy your dhumrapaan dandika, which can be translated to a cigarette. There are just so many English words that are so everyday in their usage, that we might not even know their Hindi counterparts. So for fun’s sake, we decided to look up a few and found the Hindi translations were beyond anything we could’ve guessed. 

How many do you think you can get right? Take a look!

Ignorance is bliss no more.
