What does কালো mean?
কালো (kalo) is a Bangla adjective that means black, dark in English.
Black or dark in colour, used for clothes, hair, tea strength and much else. As an adjective it normally comes before the noun, as in কালো চা (kalo cha), strong tea without milk. Be careful with people: calling someone কালো (kalo) points at dark skin and can sound blunt, so it is safer to avoid about people you do not know well.
