        I know the word tota is not for a cloth. tota means a piece of something.
        for example if a say "dha largey tota". it would mean, a piece of wood.

                    To advise others is an easy matter, the difficulty is accepting advice -- since it is bitter for those who follow their
                    own inclinations and desires

                                Thanks, how about the word for attachment (as in an email attachment)? Also, could you write the words transliterated? Would be a help for those of us who don't know the pronunciation.
