Are we failing our language - Hindi
Language- The method of human communication, either spoken or written, consisting of the use of words in a structured and conventional way.
To answer this question, lets see the above definition of a language. Is the Hindi that is currently being spoken around the globe is structured?
I do not think so, It's no way in hell, is any structured. We have totally changed our precious language, the language which ones identified our country among others, that reputed us for being part of such an amazing culture.
Yes, we failed our mother tongue, though this sentence can easily overwhelm us but indeed, it is true. Hindi is most commonly spoken language in our country. But all those shining words of English and French have totally ruined our language. Our language is not now what it used to be. Yes, the Britishers brought English to our country but it's not their fault that we have ruined our mother tongue completely.
What I think a language is like any living organism. So, like every living organism it also evolves and grows. Our lifestyle keep changing over the time, so it's the responsibility of the people to grow the language they speak. Every year, thousands of words are added to English Dictionary.
Do you remember any single Hindi word that were added to our language in past couple of decades?
No you won't, because there are none.
It's not only English language that is updated, languages like Japanese and Mandarin are updated too. Those people who speak these languages have took upon the responsibility of keeping their language updated.
I understand that English is very important language to get success in this global environment but if we keep going like this then our coming 2nd or 3rd generation won't even know a single word of a language that is known to be existed for couple of thousand years.
So, it's time that we should just for once stop asking for newer version of android and start asking for newer updated version of Hindi.......
