    Usage notes

    • म्हातारे (mhātāre) is used instead of जुने (j̈une) when referring to the advanced biological age of people or animals, especially senior citizens.[2]
    • जुने (j̈une) generally refers to the age of things rather than people. An exception to this generalisation is when it refers to for people that have been known for a long time such as:[2]
      जुना मित्र ― j̈unā mitra ― a longtime friend
    which is distinct from:
    म्हातारा मित्र ― mhātārā mitra ― an elderly friend
