1 Urdu couplets and shers with chhuti

chhuti(f): givenup

Description of chhuti: Chhuti is an Urdu word meaning a holiday, leave of absence, or short break from work or school. Unlike formal vacations that span weeks, chhuti typically refers to brief daily or weekly respites. Differs from "chhut" which means release or exemption, as chhuti emphasizes leisure time. In Urdu poetry, it evokes nostalgic escapes from routine, like a lover's fleeting rendezvous.
