एडोबी-निर्मित; मिट्टी की (धूप में सुखाई) ईंटों से बना

Origin & History

A modern compound adjective formed from adobe (from Spanish “adobe”, ultimately from Arabic “al-ṭūb” meaning ‘the brick’) + built.

आधुनिक संयुक्त विशेषण: adobe (स्पैनिश “adobe” से; मूलतः अरबी “al-ṭūb” जिसका अर्थ ‘ईंट’ है) + built (निर्मित)।

Definition

Describing a structure (such as a house, wall, or village) that is made from adobe—sun-dried bricks of clay/earth, often mixed with straw—commonly used in dry climates.
