pagathiyu Noun, Neuter
Paad (from pag, the foot- Sanskrit ) + tharvu (from sthar or stha – Sanskrit, to stand )
Pagathiyu basically means a tread of the staircase. The etymology of the word suggests that it relates to the dimensions of the human foot. It refers to a step or an arrangement of steps in a staircase. It also means a platform/ a stand/ a mount made out of wood, mud, plaster, or stone which allows connections between different plinth levels. Pagathiyu also defines a level drop between different spaces of the house ( level difference between chowk and a parshal ).
