One-word substitution

One-word substitution, asked very often: the clothes, linen and other things that a bride collects for her marriage are her trousseau; the property brought by a bride to her husband is a dowry (illegal in India under the Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961).

यह बहुत पूछा जाता है: दुल्हन द्वारा विवाह के लिए इकट्ठे किए कपड़े, चादरें और अन्य चीज़ें trousseau; दुल्हन द्वारा पति के घर लाई संपत्ति dowry (भारत में दहेज़ निषेध अधिनियम, 1961 के तहत अवैध)।
