खरकटा     

A dictionary, Marathi and English | Marathi  English
which has such food or flour adhering to it, or lying in or on it, or which has been touched by it. खरकटा food is appropriate to सोवळा Bráhmans, and would be polluted by the touch of a Bráhman in the ओवळा state. Dressed food, however, is ख0 amongst Shúdras, with whom the distinction of सोवळा & ओवळा does not obtain.
