Words ending with "na" are usually verbs. Harna = to loose. Harra is a type of long grass. I know it was used for thatching roofs or for door mats. Jarru grass was used for pillows and Matrasses. Some folks collected Pyra (paddy straws) also.

We had pillows with some seedy things inside n we called it harra or harna ..im not sure i it was from grass or corn .

I am just trying to jog my brains to rem words used at home before i started high sch..

our mattresses were from coconut fibre i think(it was called fibre mattress before we changed to foam)
