The word "kur" is used when we call out to something, like when we call out to chicken we say "kur kur". In the context of "kurwan" the word "wan" refers to something that has gone but has come back again. The Pnar word "Kurwan" is used in order to recall or retrieve a moment which has gone, so that one feels calm and tranquil again. When the word "kurwan" is used, it is meant to lighten the effect of something that has happened, which caused shock or wonder.
Ka ktien "kurwan" ka dei ka ktien kaba don ha ka ïa ka jingmut kaba pher bad la pyndonkam ïa ka ban thew ïa ka jingsngew kaba kyrpang. Ka pher na ka jingmut jong "kyndit" (Khasi) bad "khyrngiat" (Pnar). 😯😨😲😮 The word "kurwan" has a specific meaning and usage. Its meaning is different from the Khasi word "kyndit" and the Pnar word "khyrngiat". 😦😧😱😯 Khublei Shibun Anvil R. Laloo for sending this!
