Gujarati term or phrase: kado
absolutely no idea what this means
Goldenstat
English translation:KADO
Explanation:
The word Kado as written in Gujarati as કડો, has a different as is provided by the Saarth Gujarati Jodani Kosh published by Gujarat University is as follows - (1) Kado (Musculine) is a type of medicinal plant called Indrajav. In Marathi language it is written as KADA - कडा. (2)It also means, mat or wall of a hut made of thin bamboo sticks or canes. (3) This is also a variety or rice. (4) It also means, thick stone-like layer forming at the bottom of a ship.

The other derivative of the original word under question "KADO" is Kadun - કડું, which means an ornamental ring adorned on wrist, but that also means, handcuff or manacle.

Thus, to provide meaning of KADO as ate/consumed is incorrect.

Kind Attn: Mr. Vimal Panchal - I do appreciate your effort at providing 'nearby' words to KADO. We both know, how differently all the words that you have mentioned, are used and have distinct different meanings. I have gone by what GOLDENSTAT had asked - just one word - KADO, and I am sure, you will agree with me about different meanings I have provded for the word KADO - કડો.

As regards to N U's disagreement....

I know, I've drawn few more illustrations above nearing to source word but dear fellow, I know GOLDENSTAT has to mostly mention some words / sentences just nearby to the spelled out words and also because he often seeks explanation / understanding of wordings that nearby matches his saying, and so above examples shouldn't be taken just as if having said more than necessary.

  -> Thanks UD for your agreement!

disagree  Narendra Upadhyaya: I disagree to a few derivatives of the word "KADO", e.g. Khadhu, khadho, also Kadai, Kadiyo, Kadho & kadhvu, which are irrelevant to the original word. However, Kado menas a medicinal plant. For other meanings refer to my separate explanation.

  -> Had I not been aware of distinctive meanings between KADO and KHADHU or KADAI or KADIYO, etc it did not have to be explicitely spelled out here. Check fore more details above.

neutral  Vimal Panchal: You're mistaken. I already said meaning of KADO first + few more words nearing to KADO just to the benefit of Goldenstat's understanding only. I agree you may not like my highlighting few additional words but that shouldn't provoke you in disagreeing with
2 hrs
  -> Vimal, I'm sad you're offended. I disagreed with Mr. Ismail & not with the meaning you wrote initially. Goldenstat had asked "KADO - absolutely no idea what this means". I thought it prudent to limit myself to just that word. Hope this clears my stand.
