What is the English of parwal?

Parwal is a Hindi word that refers to a type of pointed gourd.

In English, it is often called:

* Parwal gourd

* Pointed gourd

* Ridge gourd (though this is technically a different vegetable, the names are often used interchangeably)

* Tindora (in some regions)

It's best to specify "parwal" if you're referring to the specific vegetable, as "pointed gourd" or "ridge gourd" can refer to other similar vegetables as well.
