দই

What does দই mean?

দই (doi) is a Bangla noun that means yogurt, curd in English.

দই (doi) is yogurt, and in Bangladesh it usually means the thick sweet kind sold in clay pots, especially মিষ্টি দই (mishti doi) eaten at the end of a meal. Plain sour curd used for cooking is also called doi, so how sweet it is depends on context. It is not milk — that is দুধ (dudh).
