1 Urdu couplets and shers with daant

daant(m): teeth

Description of daant: Daant is the Urdu word for "tooth," referring to one of the hard, bony structures in the mouth used for biting and chewing. Unlike molars, which grind food, daant primarily denotes the front incisors or general teeth essential for speech and eating. Differs from "daantna" , which means to scold harshly. In Urdu poetry, daant symbolizes fierce love, as in lovers' playful bites evoking passion and intimacy.
