by Sam Mohan on Apr 29, 2008 02:23 PM | Hide replies

All the regional languages in India around 1200 Is no good for long run .Mr UR Antamurthys kids itself would be studying in English mediums.I dont want to start debate which regional language is better than other .We should all concentrate on simple beautiful powerful English and should allow the reginal languages to die a graceful death that anyway in coming 30 to 50 years it will happen other wise .Thanks to Internet. The power of English is backed by the Inventions and discoveries made by English dialect people.No is no point is tuding Kannada or Mmarati ot Tamil ..All are in the same boat with about to sink. So my dear yungistan guys Follow Mtv culture first dump regional languages .Watch Hollywood movies and world movies .They are 100 times better than Indian movies ..There by slowly You will attain the goal The Beauty of English just with 26 Alphabet It rules the world.

I am sorry to slightly differ.Though, I do believe that these regional languages which create hatred and are wepons of politicians, should die their natural death.But we Indians should have our identity by accepting HINDI as the only medium of communication,keeping English as next because we have to keep ourselves accessible to the world also.

Hindi is also just another regional language. Even it should be discarded. Sanskrit and english should be propagated in india

Even England has many lnguages!And ENGLISH IS NOT THE OFFICIAL LANGUAGE OF ENGLAND!
UK legislation does not recognise any language as being official,[71] but English is the only language used in England for general official business. The other national languages of the UK (Welsh, Irish, Scots and Scottish Gaelic) are confined to their respective nations, except Welsh to some degree.

Very Well said. English rules the world with 26 alphabet while so many Indian languages have 100-250 alphabet. Then just guess which is better? So learn English.
