@Aryamanarora: Blighty claims it means/meant "soda water"... —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 01:39, 31 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

[1] this Hindi dictionary (from the 1970's) claims मदिरा, शराब (madirā, śarāb). —Aryamanarora (मुझसे बात करो) 01:42, 31 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
Sorry, I wasn't clear; I don't doubt this meaning, but the other page implies that either there's another (older?) sense to add, or that Blighty#Etymology should be corrected. —Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 01:53, 31 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
