हसायो SAP dude ले | तेसो भए :
मुमा हजुर : mother इन thakuri
हजुर मुमा : ग्रान्ड-mother इन baun

अनि muma hajur हुन्छ भने mata ji पनि राख्नुस है | फेरि यो त हिन्दि भयो भन्ला कसैले ,,,,.
यहाँ कसैले भनेन : नेवारीमा त मांग भन्छ होइन र ?

Laure,

I was only being sarcastic to "Muwa Hajur of Thakuri"

I actually came to find out after i came to USA that Thakuri think they are different from Chetris.  I used to think they were all the same but some "thakuris" even get offended when called Chetris to them....lol

ठकुरी को स्वाङ्ग ...कहिले के बोल्या छ कहिले के |

 SAP Dude, the minute you replied, i knew that you were being sarcastic and i totally understand your sarcasm. I myself used think that Thakuri's are different but later after reading the history of Nepal and Nepalese especially the book of Dr Harka Gurung, i realized that Thakuri's are Chhetri's. The reason Thakuris don't consider themselves as Chhetri's is because of the Royal Family of Nepal who are also a Thakuri's. Thakuri's are originated from Chhetris, It's just that they wanted to call themselves different because lots of Thakuri's i myself have seen are very proud of their surname which i don't understand why? Also one of the other reason is may be because of their high class lifestyle. I am sure you've seen of the Thakuri's, Rana's (Hune KHane wala haru) That might be the reason. 

But there's nothing to do with what you called your mother because i myself is Thakuri and i called my mother as Muwa. I don't know what in the world makes your laugh your ass out of that.

Karnali....i agree with you of your perception of Thakuris about Thakuris thinking themselves as " hune khane, dekhya sunya haru". Genetically, thakuris could be mixed with Magars or something...some do have some magar like physical features.

Anyways....coming back to the topic of names for mother......it seems like the sound of "M" is the first sound a child makes and the first thing he wants to call is his monther and hence all the cultures have their Mother sound starting from "Ma".

Now, may be the second easy sound for a child is "ba" and hence the sounds "Ba, Pa, and Pha is ther for fathers name.

thakuris have mixed more with the matwali castes(mainly magars ) of the west whereas other khas (chetris and bahuns) have mixed more with the north indians and rajputs.my  personal view!

All these Bhotes f­u­c­k their own mother. So, they often call their mothers "rakhautis".

 I call my mother - Mai 
 
Contemporary Nepal

Why have people forgot   "mummy"  ... its the most used word for mother in Nepal..... it may have now been included in "brihat nepali sabdhakosh" as "aagantuk sabdha".

Aama is now a days used to call Grand mother.

Hi All,

With help of yours, I have created a list of different words for mother in Nepal. The small article can be found here:

Thanks!
