I agree that all Indian languages and Sanskrit are way above any language of the world.
In India, we are still squabbling over a 'national' language.
Hindi, is not the national language, it is only the 'official' language and thanks to Bombay films has acquired the status informally as the 'link' language.
In fact, the most harrowing part is that if one is proficient in his regional language, he still cannot get a job outside his State.
Now,. what do you suggest that is to be done?[/QUOTE
Hmm...have you seen what happened in the Philippines. They had a similar issue,..there were many languages spoken in the islands, but they needed one default language, so they setup a commission that would create a language from all of them, and today it's used by all. Wonder how it would be if we did this
I'm quite surprised that they made it work there, are people not as connected about their native languages? Atleast as far as TN I totally see it not being accepted(what! the new language has only x tamil words, but y words from hindi,...that means we are lower! burrrn!
