What are some words in Nepali that no other languages have. Like for instance, 'Tingo' is an Easter Island word for someone who borrows something from your house one by one until nothing is left. 'Lagom' is a Swedish word which means not less not much but just the right amount. 'Bakku Shan' is a Japanese word which means a girl who looks good from behind but not from the front.
The one that comes to my mind in Nepali is 'Jutho'. Except Indians, I don't think anyone has that word. 'Kurkkuccha' is another one I think. What are some you guys know? I bet you can think of plenty. Let's enrich each other with some unprecedented vocabulary.

Dynamite bro I see your point, but do you see mine with other anukaranatmak words I presented? I might not agree with the translation of sutukka. Sneakily is derived from Sneak and is simply and adverb of it. Sutukka has no root, i.e. not a derivation. Sneakily is NOT an exact translation, merely a synonym.

Sukulgunda = Carpet punk
bidhyanasta = education amnesia
