What does উঁচু mean?
উঁচু (uchu) is a Bangla adjective that means high, tall in English.
Describes height measured from the ground up, so it fits buildings, walls, trees, mountains and also high prices or high volume. It is not used for a tall person; for people and animals Bangla uses লম্বা (lomba) instead, which is a common slip for learners. The word pairs naturally with opposites like নিচু (nichu).
