Language - its the medium with which we can communicate with anyone else rite? of course to the self, we dont need any such medium except silence! wasssay?
well, this is based on the incident happened in office today though had met similar incidents several times.. when i was talking to my colleague in hindi, one of the persons sitting nearby was seeing as if i m an alien... soon after realising that got to ask him what was the reason made him wonder!? for which i got a reply, "how come you are speaking in hindi?".. i told, " i had hindi as a subject in my schoolings (till 5th) and then studied privately for the exams conducted by Dakshin Bharath Hindi Prachar Sabha in tamilnadu.. there after was taking some hindi classes too ..", he continued staring at me with surprise....again he said, "but then ppl from tamilnadu dont speak hindi rite?.."
got to say him," no boss.. you are not exactly rite.. of course, i do agree most of our gusy dont know.. but to certain extent ppl have a good knowledge in hindi.."
by the moment, was very sad about the great leader Aringar Anna! as he was leading the protest against Hindi in those days.. they would have foreseen this effects.. merely this is gonna give a -ve aspect to our ppl rite... neways its our NATIONAL LANGUAGE with which we can definitely survive in any part of India.. [i understand not all parts of southern india is eligible for my words here..except some major cities and capitals of states]....
i strongly felt that irrespective of the situations, ppl should understand the present trend and scenarios thereby its every1s duty to learn the language rather than i was not permitted/given a chance to learn the language.. and i do suffer..!! aint i?
you may ask me a question, being in bangalore do you know kannada well? Nope.. i am in a very very initial stage.. in such case, i w(sh)ould have definitely learnt Malayalam during my bachelors (Amrita Institute Of Technology and Science, Ettimadai, Coimbatore - which resides more or less close to kerala and in the TN-Kerala border)... though i should not appreciate or relax myself for not having learnt those languages, i would try to say that the losses are comparatively less than that of not learning our national language...
neways, felt great about my dad who did insist all of us (me and my siblings) to learn hindi and appear for all the exams.. as well supported for taking hindi classes tooo.... thank you dad...
the inspiration made me blog this today is the reply when i posted to one of the blogs regdg the same issue.. a guy from TN is struggling in North India to manage in Hindi.. Of course i do have one of my good friends named Hemananthan D who has a good experience in Delhi.
one more reply from my side is, i do see the same thing happenening to friends of TN only as other friends from kerala , Karnataka and AP are fairly good in Hindi proficiency!!!.
