re: What does the word "Ghar" mean in Guru Granth Sahib Ji?

The word "Ghur" in Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji is related to the musical aspect of sabads in different raagas.
Those who are familiar with the music can understand better than common man.
In simple terms Ghur is the reference for the number of tals/beats to be used for singing any particular composition.Ghur is therefore a sort of direction to a musicial for tals.
