بین الکلیات

Urdu

Etymology

Borrowed from Arabic بَيْنَ ٱلكُلِّيَات (bayna l-kulliyāt, literally “between the colleges”). The Arabic word كُلِّيَّة (kulliyya) loaned (via Persian) as کُلِّیَہ (kulliya) in Urdu, however, is not used for "college"; کالِج (kālij), derived from the English word, is used instead.
