Kya bate hai! Aap Naaraj hai! snobbery is a part of mankind behaviour, same thing applies all over the country in different  formats ...I would say its a global problem.........we can do is be free from it by being more friendlier! as we are on sulekha .

long time....you seems to be very busy.........theek hai.....

This is just very very very true...I see it everywhere, everytime...

We tend to slot people ....I have seen this happening all around me. If a slot is available then well and good otherwise ...I have seen people getting uncomfortable when they cannot find a proper slot...

And yes the English speaking....and non-english speaking..well Not knowing Hindi is one thing I can understand that but to be proud of not being able to speak Hindi is yet another issue...

keep writing

Hello Indu,
I'm most happy to see you in this space.....Thanks for your response garuji ...lol! 
Bunty.

Hiya Bina,

Thanks for your visit and your lovely response. Language is definitely the medium wherein you have the necessary tools to express your feelings with deeper intensity. And some expressions in hindi and urdu...wah! Kya kehna! Alfaz nahin hai mere paas unke tareef main bayan karne ko. 

Nevertheless, this blog was not to beat to pulp the english language. I'm particularly in love with it and express myself the best in this form of communication. The idea was just to point out that knowing the queens language does not mean the IQ is higher. The snobbery around people who prefer to talk in this language even if addressed in a regional tongue most amuses me.

Red...lol...yaar, this bambaiya lingo sounds so errr....sadakchap...ROFL....
Our Alma mater would definitely disown us reading this....
Bunty.

Hiya Kesh,
Yep...it is kinda loud thinking. We have talked on the related subjects quite recently.....

Hi Bunty

Very inspiring and thought provoking blog.

As you have said rightly if every one is accepted what they are for without judgment, all of us can lead peaceful life.

That’s what I wish for. Yeah, we see snobbery every where . Many think as if speaking English is the greatest thing on this earth and if a person fails to express in English properly, would be treated as dumb.

bunty
i stumbled upon yr blog n love your free thinking
thoughts are thoughts and language is just a mere vehicle used to convey them
be it angrezi or hindi
beautiful thoughts expressed in any manner will always remain so-in fact certain ideas expressed in hindi/urdu gives such nuances that r not possible in english.

Hey Bunts,

What was that? Loud thinking, eh?

I agree... we are not comfortable until we can slot a person into some or the other category or stereotype. Like: "Oh, he's a Gujju, they are money-minded, loud and love to eat" or "She's a woman, the only thing she can drive is her husband mad"....though the second one is mostly true...... it's wrong to generalize...:-)

And that English thing is so bloody true... when I came to Bombay first, I was actually awed by the way the kids here spoke, with an accent and all that.... till I paused long enough to listen to what they actually spoke of...the accent covered most of their grammatical or factual errors... it was mostly a facade...:-))

Nice one! Thought provoking...

cheers,

Keshav
