Glossary Term
Risk: High- Approved rendering
- खरी खबर
- Transliteration
- khari khabar
- Rejected alternatives
- सुसमाचार (a Hindi Christian loanword; avoid as the default rendering so this curriculum reads as Dogri, not Hindi with Devanagari spelling)
Gospel
खरी खबर (‘true/good news,’ using Dogri’s own everyday word for ‘true/genuine’) is preferred over borrowing सुसमाचार directly from Hindi Christian usage. Confirm against the BSI Dogri Bible before wide deployment; if सुसमाचार is already established there, this entry should be revised to match rather than introduce a competing term.
