A takiyakalam (various spellings . e.g. takia kalaam) is a Hindi/Punjabi/Urdu word or phrase used to describe a word, expression or phrase that a person frequently uses in conversation, often at the end of a sentence, and invariably without really thinking about it.
Examples:
Or a takiyakalam could just be a common expression that a particular person habitually uses after saying something else. Know what I mean?
IN ENGLISH, takiyakalam could be translated as pet words. Some people might call them 'word-whiskers!', which means a word or phase that is habitually added in speech, but which does not enhance the meaning of what has already been said. If anything, a takiyakalam might add slight emphasis, and also just give a small break in speaking, an opportunity to take a breath or to let the other person engage, respond or speak. Get me?
ALTHOUGH this answer describes what a takiyakalam is, in English culture they do not usually tend to draw direct attention to a person's 'takiyakalam.' Consequently there is actually no distinct English word or phrase that precisley corresponds with the Indian meaning and usage of the word takiyakalam.
TECHNICALLY, many takiyakalams are 'tags' or 'question tags*'. But the English don't speak about each other's 'question tags' because question tags are a fundamental part of the English language, aren't they?
DOUBTLESS many of us have a particular word or phrase that we, without realising, use often and un-necessarily in our conversations. That word or phrase is our 'Takiyakalam'. Right?

The concept of purpose implies that there is intent or reason behind an action or existence. If purpose itself has no meaning, it suggests a lack of underlying motivation or significance to one's actions or existence. This could lead to feelings of aimlessness or lack of direction in life.
