Folks I Want To Know The Meaning Of The Word Norable

What is the meaning of SANEDO?

SANEDO is type of Gujarati Folk Music, popularized by well-known Gujarati Singer Maniraj Barot.

Original pronunciation and word is "Snehdo", derived from the word "Sneh", meaning love or affection. Sanedo contains couplets of four lines and has striking resemblance to Bhavai, a folk drama from Gujarat. Gujarati folk artist Arvind Barot performed Sanedo on stages in 1980s and deserves credit for bringing Sanedo to mainstream, but it was due to another Gujarati folk artist, Maniraj Barot, that Sanedo is famous among all Gujarati people and being played at Navaratri and many wedding parties. Sanedo's topic can be anything from romance, youth or satire.

Sanedo originated from the villages of Patan district in Gujarat and it has become a very popular dance all over Gujarat and also among the Gujarati speaking population in North America and Britain. It is frequenty played during the festival of Navratri, during wedding celebrations and during parties.

The music played in the background during a Sanedo recital is from a unique musical instrument called 'Daklu'. It is similar in shape to a drum but is considerably larger in size.

What does the word Falutions mean?

Pretentiousness, arrogance, taking one's self too seriously

[Origin unknown.]
H.L. Mencken, in his famous book The American Language, mentions highfalutin as an example of the many native U.S. words coined during the 19th-century period of vigorous growth. Although highfalutin is characteristic of American folk speech, it is not a true regionalism because it has always occurred in all regions of the country, with its use and popularity spurred by its appearance in print. The origin of highfalutin, like that of many folk expressions, is obscure. It has been suggested that the second element, -falutin, comes from the verb flute—hence high-fluting, a comical indictment of people who think too highly of themselves.

On the floating, shapeless oceans
I did all my best to smile
til your singing eyes and fingers
drew me loving into your eyes.

And you sang "Sail to me, sail to me;
Let me enfold you."

Here I am, here I am waiting to hold you.
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
Were you here when I was full sail?

Now my foolish boat is leaning, broken love lost on your rocks.
For you sang, "Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow."
Oh my heart, oh my heart shies from the sorrow.
I'm as puzzled as a newborn child.
I'm as riddled as the tide.
Should I stand amid the breakers?
Or shall I lie with death my bride?

Hear me sing: "Swim to me, swim to me, let me enfold you."
"Here I am. Here I am, waiting to hold you.
