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
