As a culinary term, the word encompasses both the finished meal and the dry spice blend. When referring to the powder, it is often treated as a mass noun, whereas when referring to the dish, it can be counted as individual servings or types of recipes.

In a grooming context, the term is highly specialized and refers specifically to the rhythmic brushing of livestock. The idiomatic use in "curry favor" carries a negative connotation of insincerity, suggesting a calculated effort to manipulate someone's opinion through excessive praise rather than genuine merit.
