What this research adds
Adds a context-specific expression or sense to this dictionary; the recorded forms and source passages below define the scope of the addition.
Lien avec la santé mentale
Clarify the speaker’s intended meaning and the context of claims about clothing; no diagnostic inference from the word alone. Assessment focus: social labels and judgments of behaviour. These are inquiry domains for the cited account, not diagnoses or interchangeable translations.
Safe messaging for media
- Use the expression in its stated context; do not present it as a diagnosis or universal translation.
- Avoid describing a person by a stigmatizing term unless the person self-identifies that way and the wording is necessary.
- For suicide-related coverage, avoid method detail, sensational headlines, and single-cause explanations; include help-seeking information.
- Link to this entry’s evidence limits and distinguish contributor wording from analyst interpretation.

Contexte d'utilisation
Interviewer repeatedly requests the meaning. English translations alternate between naked and useless and obscure the explicit Bangla gloss.
Learning from the accounts
Reported effects
This is a reported statement, not proof that the mother or daughter was actually unclothed.
Attributed origins
No origin/etymology is provided.
Variation and visualization
Keep lexical meaning, reported accusation and observed clothing apart. Do not treat recorded ল্যাংডা here as evidence of physical lameness.
Ce qui reste incertain
Do not silently replace either local word. Translation alternates between useless, naked and having nothing. The body/clothing context supports a contextual reading but does not prove a particular standard lemma or actual nudity. The mother explains উস্তুর through the exact word ল্যাংডা in a sustained clothing discussion; the interviewer admits unfamiliarity.
