Words we should bring back

A mini game: each round shows an old word and three meanings; pick the right one. Some of the words:

• Shiuli (n.): night-flowering jasmine, white with an orange stem. It falls by dawn, and means Pujo is near.
• Dhunuchi (n.): a clay burner of coconut husk and incense, held while dancing to the dhak at the evening arati.
• Kash (n.): tall grass whose white plumes cover the riverbanks in autumn; it also crowns the dhak.
• Bhasan (n.): the immersion of the idol in the river on Dashami, with drums, dancing and a little heartbreak.
• Alpana (n.): white patterns painted by hand on floors and doorsteps with rice paste, for festivals.
• Prodip (n.): a little clay lamp with a cotton wick; Diwali night lines every ledge and doorstep with them.
• Phuljhari (n.): a sparkler: a wire that throws "falling flowers" of sparks while you write your name in the air.
• Bijoya (n.): after Dashami: touching elders’ feet, hugs, and far too many sweets. "Subho Bijoya!"
• Mon kemon (n.): that heavy, homesick feeling, like the morning after Dashami when the pandals come down.
