(1) What does the Hindi word “bhosdike” mean? - Quora: Raman Kaul Answered Mar 6, 2019 What does the Hindi word “bhosdike” mean? This is a common sexual cuss word in Hindi and Urdu, equivalent to calling a person “a cunt” (literally - of a cunt), therefore be careful with its usage. These are actually two words. Bhosdi is a slang word for vagina. Bhosdi ka means “of the vagina” or “born from the vagina”. Bhosdi ke is the vocative (addressing someone) form of the phrase, i.e., when you address some male whom you want to call bhosdi ka, you say “bhosdi ke!” If you wanted to use this phrase to address a woman, you would say “bhosdi ki!”. It is however not very clear why this should be a cuss word, because we all come from the vagina and are bhosdi ke. Somehow the patriarchal society has made all cuss words such as to insult women indirectly, even when they are insulting a man. The phrase “Bose DK” is sometimes used as a funny modern euphemism for this cuss word. Bose is a common surname in Bengali, and someone with that surname and initials DK (for example Deepak Kumar) could be called Bose DK. A Bollywood movie “Delhi Belly” gave popular exposure to this euphemism.
