Hinglish/Indian English C/D, S/D

Talking about abbreviations, saying jan for january

Not sure if this is an indian tech thing or just indian english

i picked up "jan" from indian tech guys

Guess papers unite all of the subcontinent.

Thanks. Btw was your earlier post about your portfolio your own words or were you quoting something?

Mine.

All are impressed.

My tiffin is non-veg.

I will also take coffee in a tumbler.

I have been out of station from Monday so I am endeavoring to give thought on how I can be an assistance in this thread now only.

Thats more better than any!

Any hill station near Chennai?

Convent educated, clean shaven, wheatish boy seeks hill station near Chennai

Did he study English medium? Is his complexion fair?

How old are you? Why are you not married yet?

Hill stations are far from Chennai only. We can hire a lorry and keep our cycles there. It will be some two nought five kilometres.

Can we prepone our excursion without additional charges if we intimate now in written?

actually

Now entire url can prepone like India only.

Beware of encounters with history-sheeters

I am betrothed to a fair gal from good fly., by the way.

And mishaps involving pickpockets and snatchers

Anti-snatching teams from the commissionerate patrol the fairground in plainclothes and are arresting these men almost every day.

Kindly don't bombard borad with such childish questions.

Commissionerate is needed as there is much wider scope of crime

Please reply with same

Playback singer Sund4r is ready for the wedlock

I can play some nice numbers.

Kollywood playback singer ShariVari has crooned with three languages Tamil, Hindi and English.

Microtonal bollywood

These actors can replace singers and croon for their own films and they have built an exceptional base for their unique talent

They are currently shooting a multistarrer bilingual which is on the brink of completion.

Lakhs of cinema halls will soon screen

Each will have years of wealthy knowledge in writing academic scribblings and will do it with proper top notch, penning a high-prime quality advanced schooling paper

Lakhs of the playback singer’s fans thronged the cinema halls to greet the debut of the Sund4r-starrer bilingual this weekend. Sund4r fever hast truly gripped Chennai. “In the last decade never have I witnessed such a craze” trade analyst ShariVari told ILX.

(Hast)

It is an excellent time pass.

Celebrations that went throughout night reached their crescendo as the clock neared 4 am.

please do this for me once

lol

all my immediate coworkers have been in the US too long or are younger and raised on Hollywood movies so I seldom get any good hinglish phrases

on the other hand, I have definitely picked up some speech patterns

not quite the same thing, but i spent a certain chunk of my day browsing through a copy of "hobson jobson"

dude really fucking hated avocadoes

i made a customer service call yesterday and every question i asked the guy said "yes, for that one..." even though i was not talking about a "one," like an option among choices. it was cute.

Yeah, that def sounds like IE.

Yes, for that one, a worthy addition to our thread.

I just learned "Do the needful" a month ago and I've been working with Indian tech people on and off for years. I like it

I wish I could use it without coming across as a disrespectful doofus. Its French equivalent, 'faites le nécessaire', is fairly common.

Looking at that seemed to have brought me some ads for a publication called The Juggernaut.

there's a london based indian street food outlet called horn ok please, didn't know its origin or ubiquity.

Have been out of station, reverting back now only.

Don’t know if this has been noted already itt but I’ve often been taken aback & charmed by the IE use of the verb “club” where in SE we would say “group”, e.g. “I will club these things together.”

my friend from Delhi says “trust me on that” the same way I’d say “take my word for it”

What’s this about Baby being a common nickname or even a name in India?
