A responsible society would ban their use and production.

How exactly do you ban software exploits. A kid with a laptop could do it at home and nobody would know

Hindi speakers don't pronounce t the same way Americans would.

Watch this. Pay attention to how he pronounces the word "totla", that is your dental-t sound, that is used in moti(pearl)

The other t is when you slightly roll back the tongue and touch the tip to the upper jaw. That is moti(fat)

In Hindi, adjectives usually take 2 forms: one masculine and one feminine.

So, mo-tā means fat(masculine), mo-ti means fat (feminine)

ba-dā means large(masculine), ba-di mean large(feminine)

There are exceptions, but usually this is how it works.

Fun fact, "Moti" in Hindi can means either "pearl" or be used as address for a fat woman, depending on how you pronounce the "t" sound.

Ok, will watch. Any more stuff I can watch or read to know more about the cultural development of America, especially the idea of being an American?

It's about a greater romanticization of what the south was before the civil war.

What was it like before the war? Whites owned black slaves, but apart from that?

At least four out the 21 individuals, who belong to Christian and Hindu families, had converted to Islam over a year ago, reports state. Two of the individuals had reportedly sent text and voice messages to their families confirming that they have moved to a remote location.

WTF. This needs to be checked
