Hun gusa na karo..is daa juaab meray laee sokha hai English vich likhan...
I am from the west..I learnt at young age to swear in Punjabi, but, never saw it as inferior...the thing is I love Punjabi beacuse of my roots and yes, ma pio nay kar boli hai..but living in UK surrounded by ENglish, that was the natural language to learn ( realistically English is my Ma Boli, Punjabi my Baap Boli). My Punjabi can never be as good as yours ( people in Punjab), but I can and do always try... In the same logic does not matter how much English to get ahead the Schools in Punjab teach, no one in India can ever be good enough to a western born and raised in English enviroment,..therefore it is more logical to teach Punjabi and English only as 3rd or 2nd Language..ik misal dinda..my cousin sister got high grades in good school in India, but when she immigrated to UK, she could not understand the local people..why?
1) UK slang is not known in India
2) India teaches an English that hardly exists in the west now..languages are organic and they change
3) She will always have an Indian accent and the local whites will laugh at her ( think about how you Punjabis laugh when we try to prnounce Punjabi words)
English in UK is not same..it has evolved..that is what I am trying to do with my Punjabi writing..pull up your local methods to true international standards..Charles Dickens and all that is a dead form of English...
Getting a job in the international community does not come from English, but being good at your profession..I wish the stupid middle classes of India could understand that...In Europe the English are see as stupid if all they can speak is English..the funny thing is to impress clever English people, you have to speak other languages ( English locally in UK is considered Rungar), such as French, Spanish or Punjabi, Hindi and Urdu!!
The French and others never giove up their languages, English has always been taught as second language..yet the idiots in Punjab teach it as first!! Funny thing is those who write Punjabi on their CV as a second language ( applies to any 2nd language) are more likely to get higher paid jobs!!
The only use my cousin from India finds for English is to talk to the lower classes!!
