පොදු උදාහරණය ග්‍රාම්‍ය ව්‍යවහාරය සහ නව වාක්කරණය

Most of below slang are regarded as non-offensive and jovial.

  • 'අම්මට හුඩු / අම්මට උඩු / අම්මට සිරි- Used to express surprise. Concidered non taboo but vulgur. Not supposed to be used in decent company and people who liberally use this in decent company are regarded as less 'classy'
  • ගල් කරනවා - Sneak something out of its place, shop-lift or steal (small items). (e.g. Methana tibba pæna kawuru hari gal karala (මෙතන තිබ්බ පෑන කවුරු හරි ගල් කරලා) means 'Someone has sneaked out the pen from here'.) This is not to be confused with Gal Kapanawa (ගල් කපනවා) which has a sexual meaning. (see further below)

  • කඩුව / කඩ්ඩ) - Literally 'Sword'. Means 'English Language'. (e.g. Kadda siraa num interview eka goda (කඩ්ඩ සිරානම් ඉන්ටවිව් එක ගොඩ) means 'Interview will be a breeze if fluent in English'). Etymology of the term is based on the fact that just like a person wielding a sword skilfully gets and 'undue' advantage in the olden days, nowadays someone displaying a fluency in English gets and 'undue' advantage in most situations.
  • කිංඩි - Sneer, scornful, ridicule, mockery, scoff (e.g. Mokada nikan kindiyata hinawenne? (මෙ‍ාකද නිකන් කින්ඩියට හිනා වෙන්නේ?) means 'Why are u smiling scornfully?')

Slang refering undesirerable situations

These slang have a negative connotation.


  • Anaa Gannawa (අනා ගන්නවා) - Literally 'getting mixed up', Anenawa (අ‍ැ‍ෙනනවා) - something is getting out of hand, becoming worst or messy. (e.g. Wædi wæda karanna gihin wæde ænuna (වැඩි වැඩ කරන්න ගිහින් වැ‍ෙඩ් ඇනුනා))
  • Æna Gannawa (අ‍ැන ගන්නවා) - Literally to 'getting pricked', usually refers to the situation of getting rejected or getting failed (exam, love, work etc.). A popular derivative is Ahala Æna Gannawa (අහල අ‍ැන ගන්නවා). (e.g. Pora oya baduwagen keepa parakma ahala ænagena thiyenawa. (පෙ‍ාර ඔය බඩුවගෙන් කීප සැරයක්ම අහලා අ‍ැනගෙන තියෙනවා.) means 'The guy got rejected (of love) by that girl several times.')
  • Ændenawa (ඇ‍ඬෙනවා) - Literally means 'makes me cry'. Used to express a wide range of feelings from sorrow to happiness. Could also mean 'great' or 'hard to believe' in certain contexts (e.g. Maara lassana baduwak machan, dækkama ændenawa! (මාර ලස්සන බඩුවක් මචං. දැක්කම ‍ඇ‍ඬෙනවා!) means 'That's a very pretty girl, and I can't explain the pleasure of seeing her!' or Kiyala wædak næ, traffic eka dækkama ændenawa (කියලා වැඩක් නෑ, ටැෆික් එක දැක්කම ‍ඇ‍ඬෙනවා) means 'The traffic jam makes me sick')
  • Anja-bajal (අන්ජ බජල්) - Messy/Complicated/Troublesome
  • Agna-koros/Angja-koros (අඤ්ඤ කොරොස්) - Incomprehensible
  • Charter (චාටර්) or Saater (සාටර්) - (with 'r' pronounced) An expression of disrepute or expressing that something or someone is not upto the expectations or standards.
  • Goo Case (ගූ කේස්) - Messy, problematic or out of hand situation. Wæde Varchas (වැ‍ෙඩ් වර්චස්) is also mockingly used for the same meaning. Literal meaning of both is Shitty thing. See Goo (ගූ) below. The term Badu Banis (බඩු බනිස්) is used in slightly different situations. It usually says that something which was good has now become screwed up. Since term Goo is treated as vulgur or even tabooo, this expression itself is regarded as vulgur.
  • Huta-pata (හුට පට) - Complicated series of events that lead mostly to an undesirable situation
  • Kade (ක‍ෙඩ්) - Literally boutique. Refers to a noisy, uncomfortable or nagging place or situation.
  • Katuwa (කටුව) or Katta Kanawa (කට්ට කනවා) - Literally 'Prick' or 'eating (fish?) bone'. Unnessorility tedious work or situation. (e.g. Saturday office gihilla mara kattak kanna set unane (සැටඩේ ඔෆිස් ගිහින් මාර කට්ටක් කන්න සෙට් උනානේ))
  • නෝන්ඩි) - (Public) embarrassment. Similar to Pal Una (පල් උනා), Kicha Una (කිච උනා) or Sawutthu Una (සවුත්තු උනා).
  • 'මළ පනිනවා) - Means 'Makes angry'. Mala (මළ) in this context means anger. Etimology may have some connection to discharge of excrement, because Mala paninawa (මළ පනිනවා) literally means 'Makes shitting'. I don't think there is a referance to excrement here Ritigala Jayasena 06:06, 27 August 2007 (UTC). I think that original reference may be literally to excrement. --Lahirs (talk) 04:11, 27 May 2008 (UTC) Thada una (තද උනා) is also used to mean the same. Yaka Nægga (යකා නැග්ගා) or simply Nægga (නැග්ගා) can mean the same and is used mostly by females. Due to the similar sexual slang for 'erection'; males usually avoid using Nægga (නැග්ගා) to mean the anger, as it can be misinterpreted for having sexual arousal.

  • Mangnan/Mangjan (මඤ්ඤං) - Disoriented/Incomprehensible. (Also the phrase Karakola Athæriya Wage (කරකවලා අතෑරියා වගේ) is used to mean the same)
  • Wali (වලි) - Argumentative, disputatious, quarrelsome. Waliya (වලිය) means the quarrel. Opposite of Wali (වලි) is usually Shape (ෂේප්) (e.g. 'Wali num apith wali, shape num apith shpe' (වලිනම් අපිත් වලි, ෂේප්නම් අපිත් ෂේප්)). Also note the term Kokka (කෙ‍ාක්ක) (literally 'hook') which also means argumentative, disputatious, but not quarrelsome.
  • Aiyo Salli (අයියෝ සල්ලි) - Sarcastic response mixed with humor. Occasionally used to express mixed feelings depending on a particular situation.

  • බට - Cigarette. (e.g. Batayak gahamuda? (බටයක් ගහමුද?) means 'Shall we have a smoke?')

  • Dekak Da Gannawa (දෙකක් දා ගන්නවා) - Literally 'to have two shots'. To have a drink. Note that Nethi wenna gahanawa (නැති වෙන්න ගහනවා) refers to getting really drunk till one is unconsious. Wadinna ganahawa (වදින්න ගහනවා) means getting high but not really drunk.

Relatively new term Mala (මල) is preferred over Suusthiya (සුස්තිය) in most social circles. 'Paetta' Prepared cannabis cigarette for Smoking. This term 'peatta' needs verification. Please discuss this in talk page Ritigala Jayasena 13:17, 10 October 2007 (UTC). Also the term Roket (Rocket) is sometimes used to mean the same. Joint Gahanawa (ජොයින්ට් ගහනවා) means smoking Marijuana.

Examples of Composite Slang (non taboo)

Following non taboo composite slangs have two or more words combined and used together. Their specific meaning is expressed only when the combination of words used together. Individual words might not have any associated meaning with composite slang.

  • Ae Ae Banisata Ae Ae Keselgedi - Literally 'particular Buns (that taste better or go with) with particular Bananas', means providing a problematic situation with a very suitable solution (even temporary).
  • Aachchita Haal Garanna (ආච්චිට හාල් ගරන්න) - Expresses anger or unpleasant surprise. This is an expression which is actually 'avoidance' or euphemism for much stronger swear.

  • ආප්ප ගහනවා - Committing a lesbian sexual act, specifically Tribadism. Literally means 'hitting or touching hoppers' and suggests the etimology of the phrase. (e.g. Girls hostel eke aappa scene bahulai kiyala thamai aaranchi (ග'ල්ස් හොස්ටල් එකේ ආප්ප සීන් බහුලයි කියලා තමයි ආරන්චි) means 'It is heard that lesbian sex activities is a common practice in the girls' hostel'.)
  • අල්ලනවා - Literally means touch or hold. When used in sexual context, means touching the genitalia or breasts.

(e.g. Aroo apita arinnai enne (අරූ අපිට අරින්නයි එන්නේ) means 'He is up to doing something bad to us'.) Aninawa (අනිනවා) is also used similarly in both contexts.

(See the definition of Gona (ගොනා))
  • Badu giya(Keri paninawa)බඩු ගියා (කැරි පනිනවා)- These two words when used together means 'ejaculated'. Can be shortened as Giya (ගියා).

  • Gona (ගොනා) - Prostitute, whore. Satha (සතා) is used as a further euphemism. Literal meaning of Gona is the Bull and the Satha is the beast. Etymology of this term is based on the fact that Gonorrhea (a form of STD) can be easily transmitted by prostitutes.[තහවුරු​ කරන්න]
  • Jack Gahanawa (ජැක් ගහනවා) - Having sexual fantasy by Pressing genitalia against female commuters of crowded public transport such as buses, trains.

In Sri Lankan context, it is extremely rare for women to victimize men in this manner in public transportation, although there are instances of female to female sexual contact.
  • (Baduwak) Kanawa - Somewhat outdated term which means excessive kissing (necking) and licking of body parts without removing lot of cloths(not to be confused with Diva Daanawa).

  • Thola Denawa (තොල දෙනවා) - Romantic/erotic kissing on the lips. Usually regarded as the 'first base' of sexual foreplay by young adults and adolescents in Sri Lanka. In Sri Lankan context this is regarded as the BIG first step in romantic/erotic relationship. The first base can eventually be followed by activities such as Athaganawa which refers to soft touching of the body which may include erotic zones such as Gala followed by මිරිකනවා which refers to touching and squeezing of body parts which may include Gedi. Acts such as Katata Denawa, Ethule Gahanawa are usually not in this line of romantic foreplay, till the relationship establishes in to a physical one (within marriage or pre-marriage). Acts like Puke Areema are regarded as sexual perversion.
