kora is k-a-w-r-a

@Bhavi, paan kora is mainly for water and any liquid . Its used in sadhu
i.e literary language.

But in chalti bhasha, we use khabo, khawa for jal also. Its
not differentiated.

But jal paan is still very much used by native bengalis in Bangladesh.

I am still trying to get lesson 2 right!

Payal di, a suggestion- try using double "a" wherever there's a pronunciation of "aaa" like in bhaanga 😊
