yeah you read it right, iam introducing you to the new language of this century tenglish,the language that is spoken in andhrapradesh widely by RJS and VJS to start with, which has so comfortably creeped in to our daily life.iam really wondering can we speak pure telugu(minus any english word) even for 5 minutes.an interesting story is i met my long lost 10th class friend through orkut few days ago,we managed to get online on Yahoo messenger.then when we started speaking to each other we were so formal and started talking to each other only in english with a usage of telugu here and there,and the twist is we both were telugu medium students when we were in 10th.how the times changed,then at one point i insisted her that we should speak only in telugu because it just making me feel as if iam speaking to a stranger.why we as a society have changed so much i wonder.but i definitely give credit to the film actors and actresses,then RJS and VJs who have become the role models for the gen X.
by the way people think u are dumb if at all if u manage to speak only telugu.but these VJS when they speak tenglish its so funny.they say”meeru ee program watch chesthaara”.i want to reply them”memu watchlu,radio lo cheyamandi”.what a kind of funny language is that.but i think the channel people always prefer a girl who cant speak telugu,but manges to speak tenglish.then we some times come across few namoonas like that in real life also who just speak as if telugu is not their mother tongue but its a foreign language and they are going to classes for learning it, i never blame them its just a changing trend.few yrs later telugu will be extinct and only tenglish will remain.people of telugu origin will actually go to classes to learn pure telugu.in wikipedia you will find telugu :language that is used in books,tenglish :the spoken language of andhra pradesh.
OK people this was just my observation.but together we all can change this trend may be by just going to our grandparents place frequently and enjoying the actual spoken language of the villages.for me they are to a lot extent still uncontaminated.
hi
nice one
but these days i personally stick to thenglish
for survival…….globalization..mixed culture..etc etc
anyway thanx
hey sandhya,nobody is an exception when it comes to tenglish but the problem comes only when few people start giving it an accent,and treat telugu as a foreign language.by the way i just wanted everyone to take notice of the changing trend and then continue going with the flow,after all you cant swim against the flow isn’t it?
