Additional Notes: |
|
Dutch ..... Grote apparaten waarmee kan worden gezwaaid om koelte te geven in een kamer. Ze bestaan uit met stof beklede frames die aan het plafond worden opgehangen en door bedienden of machines worden bewogen. Vooral gebruikt in India. Kan ook verwijzen naar grote handwaaiers, in het bijzonder handwaaiers die zijn gemaakt van palmyrapalmbladeren. |
