Many thanks Madhuri ji for working on the bhat ghagari ... it has helped thrash 
the ambiguity.

Most of Crotalaria species have some of their names related to sound; more 
related to child's rattle toy ... thus, in various languages:
English: cat's bell, rattlepod, rattlebox, shack-shack
Gujarati: ઘૂઘરો ghugharo
Hindi: घुंगरी ghungri, झुनझुनिया jhunjhunia
Marathi: डिंगळा dingala, खुळखुळा khulkhula, फटफटी phatphati
Kannada: ಗಿಜಿಗಿಜಿ ಗಿಡ gijigiji gida
... and so on.



Rathinasabapathy ji, ... not knowing the reason why you are not able to see the 
picture put in my message ... link to that picture in my flickr photostream is 
http://www.flickr.com/photos/dinesh_valke/4174379450/
Many thanks for showing pictures of Crotalaria verrucosa at your blog.


Regards.
Dinesh

Yes it is called as Khulkhula in Marathi? Then not surname but that aa 
pronunciation will be correct. Because it means the people who praise God!!! 
They are the stutipathak of God, Rajas etc. So they will be making some ringing 
noise isn't it of bell or ghungaru!
Thanks for making me think.
I hope matter is clear

... bhat ghagari

... yes, the seedpods make rattle-like noise.

Here are seed-pods of Crotalaria speciosa which look similar to that of C. 
verrucosa





Some of the meanings of भाट [ bhata ] are:
1 ... A place in the sea or a river which appears at low water; a shoal, 
shallow, sand- bank.
2 ... An elevated and level spot occurring in arable land; dry therefore and 
fit only for the inferior grains.
3 ... Ground prepared for sugarcane: also a plantation of sugarcanes.
4 ... A class of people or an individual of it. They are minstrels or bards. 
5 ... ... An empty chatterer. 


Regards.

Had read your other meanings , but could not make anything out of it unless
1, how or what is the shape of the fruit?
2. Does it make any noise when dry?//
3,because all meanings given by you indicate noise. So it has to be related to 
either noise or shape.
Ghagar is the word generally used by Bhats/ dont know but think so, because 
others use kalashi?
This is all scrathing brain not knowlege. but trying to get it.

Many thanks Madhuri ji.

But what does भट in भट घागरी mean ? any idea ?

Other than घागरी being plural of घागर meaning a vessel or pot (made of copper, 
brass, or earth) to hold water, ... the other meanings of घागरी are: a bell or 
jingling ball (as of a child's girdle, or as worn on the toes by dancing girls 
&c.); the fruit of a plant commonly known as घागरा.

Dear Marathi-knowing friends,




One of the names for Crotalaria verrucosa L. is bhat ghagari ... ENVIS - FRLHT
Not sure how is bhat spelt in this context ... would it be भाट घागरी OR भात 
घागरी OR yet any other word ?


Regards.
Dinesh
