Guest guest Posted February 18, 2005 Report Share Posted February 18, 2005 DearBag awathas, I have seen sevearal responses to the query on use of the term -dasi-.It seems we are fighting shy of saying that this term is commonly used by tamilians to mean a servent maid and much worse a prostittute,Devadasi also has fallen into disrepute. Similarly adiyal in tamil circles means a mercenery. and not the female form for adiyen or adiyar .Let us respect common usage and not offend anyone. Why waste time on such trivia?He alone is male and wqe are all His females. Dasan Narayanan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
