How do you pronounce it?

laachaar

In Hindi literature, describing a character as लाचार often carries a heavier emotional weight of fate or destiny than the English 'helpless'.
The word लाचार is borrowed from Classical Persian, where ला means 'without' and चार refers to 'means' or 'remedies'.
The Persian root चार in लाचार means 'means', which is a different root than the Persian word for the number 'four'.
