Accha yaar, I was just sitting with my chai thinking — you know how in my little tailoring shop here in Jharkhand, I use the word 'goli' for the small buttons on a blouse? My customer from Lucknow laughed and said 'goli' to her means a marble or a pill. तो फिर फर्क कहाँ है? For me, the common thread is the *fit* — whether a word or a sleeve, it has to match the person wearing it. And फ़ुस्हा? It's like the perfect tailor's chalk mark: it guides the cut, but the real fitting happens in our hands, in our घरों की बोली.
