A proper name for a city in India, specifically New Delhi, the capital of India.
From Sanskrit 'Dhili' or 'Dilli' meaning unclear origins, possibly meaning 'metal' or from an ancient settlement name. Delhi was a major historical city for thousands of years before becoming India's capital.
Delhi might be the oldest continuously inhabited city in the world, with layers upon layers of different empires and religions built on top of each other—it's like an archaeological treasure chest of human history!
