What does গাছ mean?

গাছ (gachh) is a Bangla noun that means tree, plant in English.

This fundamental noun means both 'tree' and 'plant', used for everything from massive banyans to small potted balcony greenery. It appears constantly in everyday speech when talking about nature, fruit picking, gardening, and timber. Learners should note that unlike English, Bangla uses গাছ (gachh) broadly for plants of all sizes, though young seedlings are specifically called চারা (chara).
