What does চামড়া mean?
চামড়া (chamra) is a Bangla noun that means skin, leather in English.
The skin of a person or an animal, and by extension the leather made from hide. In everyday talk it mostly means human skin, while in shops it labels leather goods, as in চামড়ার জুতা (chamrar juta) 'leather shoes'. A common learner mistake is reserving it for animals only; Bangladeshis use it freely for their own skin too.
