kutari 🔊

Usage examples

• એ છોકરી સાવ કૂટારી છે.
  That girl is a total bitch.

Etymology

Derived from the Gujarati word for a female dog (kutri/kutari), cognate with Sanskrit "kukkuri" (dog). Like many Indo-Aryan languages, the term for a female canine was extended as a pejorative directed at women, a semantic shift common across South Asian languages.

Cultural notes

In Gujarati, animal-based insults directed at women carry significant social weight and are considered highly offensive in most contexts. "Kutari" is used primarily as a strong gendered insult, comparable in register and impact to its English equivalent "bitch." It is common in heated arguments and informal confrontations.
