copper-T
A product of population control in India, and an item of great mystery to high school kids, and cooper-T is a T shaped strip of copper inserted into the sac of a female, to ensure non-fertilisation. The arms of the T are highly coiled. This has a 97% sucess rate. The copper deactivates the sperm, and the coiled arms are a physical barrier to prevent fertilisation.

paise
Smallest and now defunct unit of currency in india.
100 paise = 1 rupee
6 paise = 1 anna.
hence 24 paise = 4 anna, but the one paise gets added usually, and a 25 paise coin is known as a charanna or a chavanni.
Therefore a 50 paise coin is known as an athanna, or an attanni, but the word has been bastardised into adhanna, meaning half an anna, which does not make sense.
