1 Urdu couplets and shers with badi

badi(f): hatred

Description of badi: Badi is an Urdu adjective meaning "big," "great," or "large" in size, scale, or significance. Unlike chhoti , it conveys expansion or grandeur in physical or metaphorical contexts. Differs from bara , as badi often implies feminine plurality or emphasis. In poetry, it evokes vast emotions, like "badi raat" for a profound, endless night. It holds strong cultural and emotional significance in Urdu literature, poetry, and everyday expressive language.
