Ek Japati Karu

Literal translation is 'I'll slap you one.'
A word used by Gujarati Indian women, to threaten their children when they're mis-behaving. It essentially means to hit the child, usually with a slipper, or just their hand. It isn't a form of violence, or child abuse, just a phrase used to scare a child, similar to telling a child off for being naughty.
*Family go out shopping and the son keeps pestering his mum for a toy*
Mum: 'STOP IT! You're not getting a toy today!'
Son: 'Please mum, pleeeeeeeease'
Mum: 'If you don't be quiet, Ek Japati Karu'
*Child stops moaning and behaves accordingly*

Son: 'Mum, mum, mum, ma, ma, ma, mummy, mummy, mummy, maam, maam, maam, mom, mom, mom...'
Mum: 'WHAT!'
Son: 'Nothing (sniggers)'
Mum: 'Ek Japati Karu'
(Son shuts up and minds his own business)

the Jajat

the act when one passes out early in the night where a lot of actions dramas excitements drunken parties etc are anticipated. Those who embrace the Jajat will wake up the next morning feeling depressed and demoralized as he or she have been missing a lot of fun from the previous night. Factors contributing to passing out early in the night may include binge drinking, binge smoking, binge drinking and smoking, simply a lazy heavy sleeper, or just a known Jed!
"Oh no, hes pulling the Jajat on all of us again!"

jajaira

a beautiful, kind, sensitive girl. You can count on and trust her on anything, she’ll listen to you. Even though she is really kind and sweet, she can also be really mean but she chooses not to. she’s also real when it comes to an opinion. Why hurt her when all she does is be there for you? She is one of a kind, and she also is extremely smart. Both book smart and clever. she might have the biggest smile but she may be crying inside. there’s many things you don’t know about her unless your one of the closets friends she got. if she has her mind set on something she will do anything to keep her going in that. she may be short but she can kick ass!!
who is that being soo motivated that has to be a jajaira
