We hear of *charā'i* under the Mughuls but *karhī* does not find mention; this confirms the opinion that *charā'i* and *karhī* were identical. D. A. (p. 34) uses the Arabic form *marā'i* for the Hindi *charā'i*. Like various other authorities it does not mention *karhī*. Is it possible that ignorant scribes have caused the confusion by transcribing کرھی as گری or مراعی ?
