Cholai

Cholai is a term primarily used in South Asia, particularly in India and Bangladesh, referring to a young, immature plant or sapling, often specifically a vegetable or fruit plant. It can also more generally denote a small, tender shoot or sprout. The term implies the beginning stages of growth and the potential for future development. In agricultural contexts, "cholai" might refer to seedlings that are ready to be transplanted. The exact meaning and usage can vary regionally and depending on the specific plant being discussed.
