Word: hongbao Part of Speech: noun Etymology: Borrowed from Pinyin romanization of Mandarin 紅包 /红包 (hóngbāo), 红包 (hóngbāo, “red envelope, red packet, hongbao”): 紅 /红, 红 (hóng, “red”) + 包 (bāo, “bag, sack; parcel, package”). Doublet of angpao and ang pow. Pronunciation: /ˈhɒŋbaʊ/, /ˌhɒŋˈbaʊ/, /ˈhʊŋ-/, /ˈhɔŋˌbaʊ/, /ˌhɔŋˈbaʊ/ 1. Synonym of red envelope. Example: In the old days gifts of money were given to children by the older generation and were placed in red envelopes called hong bao.

Example: New Year's Eve is the traditional date for reunion dinners, but relatives and old friends enjoy getting together for feasting and entertainment throughout the entire holiday season. Gift giving is another time-honored custom still widely practiced among Singapore's Chinese. Hong bao, or "lucky money," is by far the favored item, bestowed in bright red envelopes by married family members upon the young and single.

Labels: India, Pakistan Example: A pagri was a form of "illegal payment" that had developed to circumvent colonial rent restrictions.

Example: Simply defined, it means a landlord letting a ‘tenant’ use his property – forever in most cases – after receiving a “pagri,” an amount that is a little less than the prevailing market price. In return, the tenant pays a nominal monthly rent and stays on the premises for years on end without any fear of eviction. The property remains in landlord’s name and he continues to pay taxes on it.
