| | kaik biju kam avi chadhyu che | Explanation: In English we do not have to specify what 'else' is, though in Gujarati if we refer to 'something' we usually define it to be some 'work' as in the present context.
Koi biju oopar avyu hatu would translate to - Someone else had come upstairs. You might notice here that 'oopar' here may mean upstairs and not just up.

avi chadhyu che - the second part of the target term is a phrase which describes 'come up'. Now here the word 'chadhyu' literally means 'climb' but then all languages have their own peculiarities. Don't they? |
