A large basket (without a lid, originally circular, and covered with leather); a wicker ferry-boat covered and sewn over with leather, a coracle;—a lost game or defeat at paćīsī:—ṭokre-par-kāhāth rahnā, v.n. lit. 'To remain with the hand on the basket'; to narrowly escape shame, exposure, or dishonour (the expression originates in the idea of a host asking his guest to partake of more food, and discovering, luckily after the guest has declined, that the provision basket is empty):—ṭokrādenā(-ko), To defeat (one) at a game (esp. at the game of paćīsī).
