kali is clothes lol

This is a learners thread. No reason to laugh (LOL).

کاليَ kā-laey : (page 776)

of dress. 3. An ornament. Pl. کاليِ kālī. The plural form when used signifies, Apparatus, tools, the furniture of a matchlock, articles of clothing, a barber's instruments, a goldsmith's tools, dress and ornaments. د پریوتو کالي da pre-wato kālī, Bed clothes. د لاندِ یستو کالي da lāndi yesto kālī, Carpets, etc. د آغستو کالي da āg̠ẖusto kālī, Wearing apparel.

I am sure I am wrong, but would like clarification.

This is taken from http://dsal.uchicago.edu/dictionaries/raverty/

زیور zewar
P زیور zewar, s.m. (2nd) An ornament of gold, or silver, jewelry. Pl. زیورونه zewarūnah.

I have heard it used as کاليَ ?? I know that کاليَ means clothing, but has anyone heard this used when referring to jewelry also?

Another word I found was:

1. ګاڼه [ ] ( ) jewellery, ornament

that term is more widly used in paktunkwa then in afghanistan, but yes i have heared people referring to jewellery as kalai

[akhan]

Thank you and that was the answer I was looking for. I thought that was what I was hearing.
