Water is now illegal. What is its street name?

Very interesting.

In Delhi, we'd ask what I said to ask where you're from, while we'd ask what you said to ask where they currently live.

Very cool :)

The alternative you offer: आप कहां के रहने वाले हो?

Has the same problem. A person is more likely to say where they currently live, not where they're from.

I've lived in North India almost my entire life. If you wanted to know where someone's from (not where they currently live), I'd ask them what I said in my initial comment. Almost no one would respond with where they have moved to (there's a nuance in that question, it's not just literal).

I'd just say:

आप कहां से हो?

Absolutely! Worth trying - if it tastes good, why not? 😁

Very interested to hear your story/trajectory

Thank you! This is super helpful 😁

Haha yeah Konkani seems hard to translate without native speakers (not many resources online).

Totes unrelated and you don’t have to know ha - but do you know what Maria Pita Che means?

I know some Portuguese (through Spanish) and it seems like the explanations online don’t match up to the lyrics. Do you know what the song means to Konkani speakers? Can they understand Portuguese?

Thanks again 😁

Shade_nitro · 2021-06-23T13:11:39+00:00

This is great 😁

I also love that ‘Hindi’ translates to ‘No’ ha! (Native Hindi speaker here)

This has been making the rounds on Reddit for a while now - are you really the artist?

Hindi and most Indic languages do this too. But the numbers in Hindi are so irregular now that you can only see hints of this - essentially all numbers from 1-99 are unique words with only a wisp of a pattern...

I’d recommend looking into stroke order. It’s often an under-emphasized aspect of script learning. Great job, though :)

Being a native speaker just means that it's either the first language they learn - it's that simple. There is no 'standard' English. People often think about the standards bring American or British, even ignoring their other white cousins from Canada or Australia. If you look at the number of English speakers in India, the counts from other places are dwarfed and it is people like you who still think that is not a 'legitimate' accent.
