pahar Pahar (Hindi/Nepali: पहर, ), which is more commonly pronounced ''peher'', is a traditional unit of time used in India, Pakistan, Nepal and Bangladesh. One ''pahar'' nominally equals three hours, and there are eight ''pahars'' in a day. In India, the measure is primarily used in North India. ==Etymology== ''Pahar''/''pehar''/''peher'' is derived from Sanskrit word prahar which is an ancient unit of time in India. The word ''pahar''/''peher'' has the same root as the Hindustani word ''pehra'' (meaning ''to stand guard'') and ''pehredar'' (literally ''guard''/watchman).〔 It literally means a "watch" (i.e. period of guard-duty).
