How many laguages have been used in India?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Languages_of_India
People use other luguage except English XX XX XX and so on-------They are not Indians---- I conducted this conclusion in Ray's logic.
By the way,please read the article carefully on WIKI.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cantonese
In English, the term "Cantonese" is ambiguous. Cantonese proper is the dialect native to the city of Canton, which is the traditional English name of Guangzhou, and later brought to Hong Kong and Macau;[citation needed] this narrow sense may be specified as "Canton dialect" or "Guangzhou dialect" in English.
what is a dialect?
There are many languages in India, many religions, many cultures, many everything and more than what Wikipedia can account for.
I have never said speaking many languages or different cultural strains does not make a country.
If you don't follow what I write then that is your problem.
I have mentioned earlier that while we Indians revel in our own individual identity and cultural affiliation and our own religion, yet, we are proud of our identity as Indians.
It is such a powerful identity that even Pakistani and Bangladeshi restaurants pass themselves off as Indian Restaurants!
While we are Indians, none can impose the majority language or culture on others (the non majority) in India.
Therefore, your conclusion on what I have stated is your own interpretation and is fallacious.
I am well aware of the different languages spoken in China, even though there is the tendency to declare them as dialects.
Dialects or otherwise, it there is also the fact that one dialect is not understood by another.
That is why the Chinese govt has gone in for what is called 'simple Chinese'.
