# karhi
## English
### Noun

karhi (countable and uncountable, plural karhis)
* Alternative form of kadhi (“Indian chickpea curry”)

## Finnish
### Etymology

Most likely karhea +‎ -i. Derivation from a root *karča (“twig”) has also been proposed; in which case the word would be akin to Moksha кархча (karhča), Western Mari карша (karša), though this seems unlikely due to an absence of cognates elsewhere in Finnic.

### Pronunciation

* IPA: /ˈkɑrhi/, [ˈkɑ̝rhi]
* Rhymes: -ɑrhi
* Hyphenation: kar‧hi

### Noun

karhi
* wooden harrow
* Synonym of juuriäes (“scarifier”)
* (regional, Savonia, Kainuu, North Ostrobothnia) harrow
    Synonyms: äes, (dialectal) hara
