The person behind the CV requested that his pesonal information be removed from Wikipedia. I have done so. Thank you. -- Avi 18:08, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I could not get you. --Bhadani (talk) 10:37, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You had a person's CV posted in your talk archive (#25). That person contacted OTRS and requested that his information be removed. I deleted it off of your archive, and left you a note as to why I made changes to your talk archives. -- Avi (talk) 14:45, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fine. Thanks. --Bhadani (talk) 15:14, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ye ghar bahut haseen hai[edit]

OMYGOD Bhadani-jee, what is this? I used to think you worked in a bank. Now it looks like you own the bank -- or else have broken the bank. What next? Are we headed for the sawaa laakh ki kothi? ImpuMozhi (talk) 03:02, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. The ghar is very haseen. No doubt. But, your words are haseener :) --Bhadani (talk) 04:18, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Where's the Urdu? Haseen is definately within the reach of Hindi vocalbulary. --Soman (talk) 16:18, 12 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

यह उर्दु मुश्किल नहीं है! It may not be Shuddh Hindi but all these words are used in common and spoken Hindi. Gizza^Discuss ^© 23:48, 12 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

हसीन – हिन्दुस्तानी का शब्द भी हो सकता है, परन्तु यह हिन्दी बिल्कुल नही है. — Nearly Headless Nick {C} 12:23, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Kintu Hindi ko anya bhasaon ke sabdon ko bhe grahan karana chahiye. --Bhadani (talk) 12:25, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

आपकी बात सही है, हिन्दी ने काफ़ी भाषाओं से शब्दों को ग्रहण किया, और ऐसा किया की जो हिन्दी हम बोलते हैं, वह हिन्दी ही नही रही. पहले खड़ी बोली आई, फ़िर हिन्दुस्तानी आई, और अब हिंगलिश आ गई है, कुन्तु यह सब हिन्दी नही कहला सकतीं. क्या सोचते हैं आप? — Nearly Headless Nick {C} 12:36, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

My "soching" matches with you :) --Bhadani (talk) 12:39, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There's a difference here. Hindi is a standardized form of popular vernaculars, a written language built upon Arabo-Persian and Sanskrit vocabularies. The Arabo-Persian vocabulary is part of Hindi from its very onset, and khari boli cannot be compared to 'hindglish'. To say that 'true' Hindi excludes Arabo-Persian loanwords, is a postconstruct for political reasons. --Soman (talk) 12:47, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I would tend to disagree. Arabic-Persian influence came to India with the onslaught of Mughal invasions, by the influence of which, many of the Arabic and Persian words got assimilated into a common tongue for a majority of North Indians – Hindustani. That I do not refer to today's Hindi as – "pure Hindi" and that is my personal opinion, completely uninfluenced by politics. And in that sense, I am not a fluent speaker of what I think "pure Hindi" is – बॉलीवुड जिन्दाबाद. — Nearly Headless Nick {C} 13:21, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Both Arab-Persianised and Sanskritised of Hindi (perhaps I should say Hindustani) existed even before the partition. Nevertheless, my favourite works of Hindi/Urdu literature take their vocabulary from both sides. The weighting changes frequently in accordance with the writer's beliefs and religion. However, we should appreciate both sources of vocab since it enriches the Hindi language just like English is influenced by German, French, Latin and Greek. Gizza^Discuss ^© 22:33, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I would prefer speaking Hindustani and find it to be a more versatile language than Hindi could ever be. Thanks to Bollywood, this belief is hard-wired into my system. ;-) — Nearly Headless Nick {C} 07:50, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Duhaai hai[edit]

God save my benighted andu-gundu-speaking soul, Bhadaniji, why is everything an issue these days? I said something to you (and only you); neither you nor I care about "purity" (rather the opposite, from your statement) but the world must crash around our ears. I'm old enough to recollect a time when it was not like this, on wikipedia or out of it. I think you, Bhadaniji, must be old enough to remember this song? That's all I ever talked about.

Now let the topic change to whether "Duhaai" ("2-2 laments!") is a word of geographic-Indian origin or not. See? Things are not so straight forward. For instance, the word "Ghar" is surely related to the Sanskrit "Griha," but also to the Persian "Gaah" (place), all of which are derived from a common Indo-European root. Similarly, "Haseen" (lovely/vivacious) is related to "Hasi" and also to the Sanskrit "Hasya." I know exactly the person who could comment reliably on all this, and I could myself point that "Arabic-Persian influence" came to India 800 years before the Mughals, but rehne do, who cares for facts and all that crap? Certainly not this encyclopaedia. ImpuMozhi (talk) 00:03, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Aww, crap! :P — Nearly Headless Nick {C} 07:50, 14 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks[edit]

Thanks for the birthday wishes.

About the meetup. Belapur is across town for me and it would be difficult to meet on a weekday. Is there any chance you coming to the town area? =Nichalp «Talk»= 07:10, 9 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Nichalp. So at last you broke your silence :) I also got your e-mail - just sent a reply. I shall be free from Saturday afternoon. I also don't have any work on Sunday. I will surly be able to meet you at a place of your convenience, if you mail me the address. It will not be a problem for me to come to town area this Saturday or Sunday. You may also SMS your address to me / address of any other convenient place. I feel delighted at the prospect of seeing and meeting you! --Bhadani (talk) 12:17, 12 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
