TWISTY TALE OF COMMUNICATION


Speak my language my man, speak my language
Sir I am speaking your language, I am speaking English

How many languages do you speak?
Sir four – Tamil, Hindi, Marathi and English

Do you know how many languages are spoken in India?
Sir I think around 22 but sir did you know we have close to 1,000 or more dialects!!!!

So what, communication my man is very important
If you don’t communicate properly, I think something, you think something,
I think you are something, you think I am something
So many unnecessary misinterpretations
Misinterpretations leads to a dead end
You know dead end; you cannot take a right or a left
Yes sir, cannot move further down
So communicate clearly

Take the case of Indian Prime Minister Modi
How many countries has he travelled since he got elected?
I don’t know sir, I think must be surely 100
No 30 countries
People say he was like a tiger caged in India for the past 10 years
Now he is free and wants to shake global hands and wear global clothes
He is uncommunicative on the motive of these foreign tours
So people make their own stories, they misinterpret and then what happens?
Sir dead end sir, dead end, no right, no left
Yes, you are absolutely right

Sir I think you can communicate properly by screaming
Screaming? What do you mean?
Sir all these TV channels follow that style of communication
They have debates where they scream
You are confusing everything man, debate means screaming
Sir I am confused, they are also communicating right?
Why do you get confused with such simple things?
Debating means screaming and screaming is not communicating, so debating is not communicating, its so simple
Oh yes sir, now I understand

So I say speak my language, speak my language
Sir I am speaking your language, I am speaking English.
