Can anyone plz help me with a translation from nepali to english??

What does "PARAKHI" translate  exactly in English?? Can someone tell that she/he is a parakhi at sth for his own take???

Is it okay to say "I am a parakhi in music?"

Thanks in advance.

-Polly

though i am not good in translation, i am trying my best

I think it better if you say"I am parakhi of music"/rather than parakhi in

and the english translation ummmmmmm

what about parakhi = fond of

These words may come close to parakhi

Enthusiast

Aficionado

Devotee

Admirer

Or may be you can say I am die hard fan of music

Thanks a lot Deep, Solitude, n smileypkr. The real thing is that I was always confused whether the meaning of parakhi was an expertee or an admirer/devotee!! m still confused as m gettting mixed reactions from ppl at sajha!! 

If its an expertee, doesnt it sound absurd to say that u r at an expert at sth(4 urself)???

n i have heard some cigarette advertisement back home sayin "parakhi haru ko lagi!"!! Doesnt it mean for those who have good understanding abt cigarettes or someone who knows a lot abt the stuff rather than who loves/admires the thing!!??

In my opinion,

पारखी = connoisseur

The most suitable word would be as mentioned by othersn too :

aficionado and connoisseur.
