As a Kan/tam-bram, i can fit every aunt i know into that language and intonation. But i am married to pure-language stock and my wife had her finger accusingly pointed at me and my-language-types while she nodded knowingly at each twisted word. Needless to say she struggled to mouth it, while it rolled off my tongue :-)Narasimhanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12549977803669763517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5636536530950102632.post-7658353517461997952008-11-07T02:45:00.000-08:002008-11-07T02:45:00.000-08:00HAHAHHAHA as a recent emigrant to Malleshwaram from the Eastern part of the city where I have lived all my life.....this tam/kan/heb lingo was a revalation. <BR/><BR/>I was really laughing rolling in the aisle...too cool macha as we would say on our side of town. <BR/><BR/>Sakkath Maga .....

As a half-kannada half-tamil tambrahm speaking an equally..err.. messed-up hybrid - in a place dominated by a hip-hop chennai slang-gang, it was a relief to know our lingo ranks up there too. I am flaunting this post around now.<BR/><BR/>And a very interesting take on a sad reality - will the conservative temple-going puliyogare-loving GenX (and GenX-0.5) ever get used to the Taco Bell lifestyle? Should they?Balaji R Sharmahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05990551440944833550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5636536530950102632.post-78160696253860573152008-04-16T20:36:00.000-07:002008-04-16T20:36:00.000-07:00Oh my god... i still cant stop laughing man... one of the most hilarious posts... particularly that line where u mentioned if that maami had become a part-time dhobi at her d-i-l's day care centre.. rofl..im new to ur blog... oh ya.. im a hebbar iyengar too... u rock man! 3 cheers!Simhahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11156035058566873888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5636536530950102632.post-16603911265525869132008-03-31T06:12:00.000-07:002008-03-31T06:12:00.000-07:00Yadu: Thanks for stopping by.
