Queen's Dictionary of 'Hinglish' launched in England !

There are thousands of words picked up by British authors because of their association with Indian subcontinent and they have been included in the dictionary. These associations are due to India once under the British Rule and they could not find alternative words for local language, dialect, certains things. Likewise, English has borrowed words from practically every language in the world.

It is a really a great news that Hindi words are gaining so much popularity today that Collins English Dictionary is also picking up them. We all must be proud of it. Actually, in another way this is showing the strength of Hindi speaking people staying abroad. By the word 'strength', I mean the count or number of heads. Since, wherever you stay, while speaking a foreign language, very often some of the common words of your mother tongue or country's language are bound to come out of your mouth. Now, if it happens from a major chunk of population at a particular place or region, gradually others in that area also start picking up those words (adoption of words). In course of time, it is found that irrespective of origin, everyone in that area uses those new words with more or less the same (original)sense. Sometimes others use it with a deviated meaning too. In any case, it is an admirable step on the part of Collins English Dictionary. Thanks for sharing this nice news with all of us.
