barasti boondain bani taaleenik chhat par ~ peher chup pathjhard ka |
(is it koorapurathu or ottinpurathu?)
Nanda
I had considered both the possibilities: "koorapurathu" appears etymologically broader so i retained it ! Further, the 'koora' [the roof] was multiple materials asbestos, tin and odu [ tile].
But "ottin purathu" sounds more musical and appropriate from another perspective! I am doubtful myself!
