takraar(m): argument, tiff

Description of takraar: Takraar is an Urdu word meaning a quarrel, dispute, or argument, often implying emotional friction between people. Unlike jhagda, which denotes a casual or petty spat, takraar carries a sense of prolonged tension. It differs from ladai, a broader fight that may involve physicality, by focusing on verbal discord. In Urdu poetry, takraar evokes lovers' playful banter, as in Ghalib's verses where it heightens romantic longing.
