A metal object used to open locks.

'চাবি' (chabi) comes from the Persian word 'کلید' (kelid), meaning 'key,' indicating cultural and linguistic influences from Persian during historical trade.
'চাবি' is primarily used in spoken contexts and appears informally in written Bengali, commonly referring to household keys and other keys.
