MOFUSSIL

Etymology

Noun

mofussil (countable and uncountable, plural mofussils)

(India) Originally, the regions of India outside the three East India Company capitals of Bombay, Calcutta and Madras; hence, parts of a country outside an urban centre; the regions, rural areas.

Usage notes

The term is used widely in India and Bangladesh. Although value-neutral, the word occasionally carries negative connotations when used by residents of a large metropolis, similar to "the boonies" or "the sticks" in English. The word 'mufassil' ordinarily means 'divided' or 'detailed' in Urdu, and that is the common usage of the term in Pakistan.
