उललल (Maada Ullu) for Fem. Owl.

Some nouns are not clear and can only be found from the context1. For example :

1. प्रधज्ञानरल्लिंतत्री कल जज्ञा रहहे हह. – Pradhanmantri kal ja rahe hain – Prime Minster is going tomorrow.
Here “रहदे हह” – jaa rahe (is going) indicate the Prime Minister is Masculine with “रहदे ” (declension
from Raha (Mas. Singular) to Rahe (Formal Mas. Singular or Plural) )

2. प्रधज्ञानरल्लिंतत्री हदललली जज्ञा रहही हह. – Pradhanmantri dilli ja rahi hain – Prime Minister is going to
Delhi.
Here “रहली हह” – jaa rahe (is going) indicate the Prime Minister is Feminine with “रहली” (Rahi)
