Don't want to get in a controversy
HI,
I didn't know want to get into this thread, but couldn't help being a silent reader.
My mother tongue is not Hindi, but I have learnt Hindi. I love languages and I can speak and write English, Hindi, Marathi, Konkani, French, Portuguese and a very little bit of German. I don't have anything against any language, but everybody should respect others languages.
Having said that.. as English is de facto world language, it's up to us to provide translations, when we write in our mother tongue. I have seen threads here which only have a local language and no translation and PEOPLE WHO KNOW THAT LANGUAGE KEEP ON WRITING IN THAT LANGUAGE..
Conclusion: Don't be hypocrites, guys, mend your ways..(without taking names, wise will understand who I am hinting at..)
Lastly if given a chance I would love to learn Tamil, Telgu, Kannada, Malyaalam, Bengali, Oriya, Gujrati, Punjabi, so on and so forth.. I might have missed many languages here, but please do not take it personally if it's your mother tongue...
Thank you
