@Mitwah posted:Most of our Hindi words in Guyana comes from Bhojpuri dialect spoken in Bihar; Ghat means a place where we bathe or wash clothes over a body of water.
In India, it is a flight of stairs leading down to the rivers.
I know .. also the pronunciation
I work with many folks from India n they dont know our Hindi words.. some do but they pronounce it differently
eg baigan .. sounds more lije bHaingan
Bellna .. they say baylan or bhelna ( like bailna)
they say maama for our mamoo
