Hindi word
chalo
“let’s go / come on” in English
Literally: “let’s go” (from चलना, to walk/move).
Half the time it has nothing to do with walking. “चलो” = “okay then / alright / anyway,” a way to accept something or move the conversation on. “चलो ठीक है” — “okay, fine.” “चलो, छोड़ो” — “forget it, let’s move on.” A gentle verbal shrug that keeps things going.
