Arre Kya HUM Boloooo?? π³π€£
just kidding.. got it @ mumbaiyya lingo
π₯Ί.. i really dislike it and it derogates my city i feel ππ..
okay, to cut out my mumbai-love spam π, let me say something related to the topicπ.
Accent gives away where one hails from!
Sundy Mondy cracks me up! Ofcourse you can tell where the southeners hail from and the same holds good for upper mid-west. i love the Fargo- accent π & Scottish accent.
At bold, hear yaaπ³
Oh "tu" was with reference with Mumbaiya language, was surprised to hear people addressing with "tu" initially but thats the Munna Bhai language eveyone loves... I asure fo strangers it's always app but for friends π orelse friends ask tabiyet kharab hai kyaπ BTW it won't sound good to say "App kaisa hai rey" "Ayee Apun key saath app bhankass nahi karneka" "App aati kyaa kandala" πππ just for fun eg. no offense intended. (man these disclaimers, am so concerned these days, kiss ko kya offensive lagey, unlike me lolsssss)
I worked in Mumbai b4 so chance to get mingle with lot of (different type)peoples, but the style of talking influenced me a lot.......its not actuly munnabai talking....b4 munnabhai lots of people talking like that way....I dont think in first meeting someone use "Tu" in mumbai too.....π³Kaiko aisa bolra re π
Generally whenever we meet an individuals, basic questions afte name intoduction is where are you from?
Well does it really matter? Can you make assumptions / mind set on person's individuality/personality based on which region/part/county/country he/she hails from?
Example - No offense please, like Delhites use "APP" addressing people, not necessarily they respect you but its out of habit, on the contrary a Bombaite will say "Tu" not necessarily he/she disrespects you. More examples follow based on responsesπ
Another burning(π) question - Why people are biased based on region/country etc.?
I think this is due to a belief that people from your own region are likely to be more intelligent, friendly, helpful than those from the other....
I dont thinkn people understand link bet' language and respect.. even on the forum if you call anybody with a suffix ji... they immeidiatly say I am not an aunty....so please dont put a ji.....language has its own of conveying respect which english totally lacks....and actions have their own.. You can address a person as aap and then slap him repeatedly...though thats ridiculous...
