Re: [www.keralites.net] Malayalee- Malayalam

Dear Manoj Kumar,

I can feel your thinking but I can not agree with you that a Keralite not respect their language who are living out side of Kerala, due some circumstances our parents can not atract to do so. You can see my matter, my father was a Malayalee and mother was a north Indian so in our house we speak in Hindi and we are cannot talk in Malayalee. Really it is very pain full for me when I visit Kerala, that time I face the problem. But I try my level best to understand the language. I think every Keralite love their state and language if any one found they are very hand full.

So, don't blame only to our parents, take an initiative to know the language and feel proud that we are the sons of God's own country.

Thank you.

Subject: [www.keralites.net] Malayalee- Malayalam
 

Generation who are living out of Kerala are not very fond of our mother tongue Malayalam. This is a very painful reality. Surprisingly, parents did not give any importance to Malayalam and they are also proud because their children are not speaking Malayalam. Our young generation who is living in other than Kerala do not anything about Malayalam, its culture and rituals. Modern parents and children think this is a useless language and they are ashamed to talk it.

There is no-one in this world other than Malayalee to handle their mothertongue in such a way. Look other South Indian States. Tamils, Kannadigars, Telugu people always have much respect to their own mothertongue and always insist their children to speak only in mothertongue in their home. What is the ultimate result of this fact? Is Malayalam will also get a place in the list of dying languages in the near future if this kind of life style continues. Please comment.

With regards,
Manoj Kumar. K.K.
