flash light [IW]

Flashlight or electric torch, adapted from the Hindi बिजली bijalii, 'electricity'. Also common for 'flashlight' is thor chi, from Hindi टॉर्च torch, a loanword from English 'torch' but meaning specifically an electric flashlight. An alternate spelling is bi ji li. [Erick Tsiknopoulos]
