We speak 'Fisherman Language'

Increasingly children can't speak their mother tongue...
(mixed marriages, non resident et al)
Since, we both spoke the same language it was but obvious that our lil one would learn Bengali
But we as new parents took extra effort to speak only in Bengali...
result being our 2 something speaks fluent Bengali using words, I for one have never used
'boddo' being a favourite - thanks to his grandmom!
Not being able to speak in English we realised was the least of our worries...
Our son spoke fluent 'CRASS' Mumbai ishtyle hindi especially when spoken to in any other language but his mother tongue...

'Tu kidhar ja raha hai'
'tere ko maru kya'
'tere ko pakdu'
'mere ko nahin chahiye'
- the non offensive ones

Root cause analysis attributes this to over of maids during the day
And songs like ' pappu cant dance, s*!&', 'goli maar bhejey mein', 'woh s*@# kaam se gaya'
topping the charts currently.

Trip back from Cal...A sardarji sitting quietly in a corner waiting for the departure call....
1.5 yr old tod goes upto him and with flaying arms and stomping feet sings 'singh is king, singh is king, singh is king'

I look on...why can't mothers teach their children better manners!!!
Then when no one is looking, I bury myself !!!!!
