A tribute to the original linguists
Ever wondered from where do the gracious words like fundoo,todu,fodu,rapchick,dhaakad and many others come from.
I think i just came across the source,the fountains of such words.
They are simply you and me,but rewinded a few years backwards.For some it will be rewinded many years backwards.
They are children below the ages of 5,at their creative best.
When i listen to such children calling,a computer,adum.
When i listen to such children calling,sleep,nina.
calling pen,mann.nature’s call,chicha.
going to lu,as su.
calling nani,nun.calling food,khau.
calling chewing food as kattu kattu.
water,mum.
calling opening something(kholna),as lolo.
calling sitting down(beutho),as te to.
anything which is double,as tutu.
And another calling rain as appa mum mum.
and yet another calling loo,as vivi.
And the most amazing children singing,Bulla ki jaana main kaun,by Rabbi Shergil,
as “Bulla se shana(smarter) kaun?”
i am forced to think,who the real balshrees are!
