It's also a direct translation into English, the 3rd official language. Road signs and official government documents in Sri Lanka often use "veediya" to indicate roads, further solidifying its meaning as "road" in an official and practical sense. Etymologically, the term "veediya" is derived from Sanskrit "viti," which means "path" or "way," reinforcing the idea that it refers to a broader concept of a road or path rather than just a streetEntryothrr (talk) 12:15, 7 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
