Language matters




I received a message from Margaret Mugin. A friend of mine. She said she don't know that I am very much on Hindi movies. It is not to say that I am obsessed on Hindi but it is what I learned from the songs and movies. I am a verbal lingustic person. From Hindi I learned a lot on the vocabulary. For example I know the origin of certain words such as in the song "Pardesiyon Sena", the word Pardesiyon is a Hindi word that is originated from arabic word and English also uses it. This means we are all same. Same in the sense of we share many common things. So nobody will be above or below anyone. No ranking for humans. We come from the same ancestors. Look at the similarities below.

Hindi-Pardes
Arabic-Firdaus
English-Paradise

Learn other language as well so that we will know each other better. PEACE!
