Hi Torsten

How are you?
I am Archana from India.
I resides in Hyderabad…
My native language is Telugu…
we say “thank you” as “DHANYAVADAMULU”.
You know in our country we take English as our international language,
Hindhi as our national language and TELUGU as regional language…
My native language is spoken by many people next to our national language…

I really felt great to say this…
Thanq Mr.Torsten
takecare…
Hear you soon.
Bye…

Hello all,
My name is Noren Limbu and I am from Nepal. In my mother tongue i.e. Nepali we say “DAN YA BADH” for " Thank you" or " Derai derai Dhanya badh cha" means " Thank you very very much". That’s it.

In Vietnamese, to say “thank you”, we say “cám ơn”. To pronuonce this word, you can pronouce like this : /'ka:mə:n/. I’ll post my voice later. Let’s try it!

Hi Sahid59

I do not speak Tamil, unfortunately.
But it would have been nice, if you had explained:
romba = very much, nanri = thanks, I’m indebted; santhosham = (It’s my) pleasure;
“vaNakkum”!
Now it is your turn to explain “vaNakkum”!

Hi Weiqiang…Ni Hao…!
your opinion is not correct. In Taiwan, Hongkong,Singapore and Indonesia allmost every Chinees has a Christian first name. Example: Bruce Lee, Jakey Chan, etc.
Officially no one can take a name of his without registration at a Govt. office. It is their official names and not a pet-name. May be it is practical for them in the modern world getting closure. Naturally all over a first name is not a family or as you call it ‘parent’s name’.

Hi Sahid59
You may be right as far as Holy Quran is concerned.
But your opinion: {Arabic is the only ‘‘Classical Language’’ which stands the test of time without any major changes both in alphabet and in grammar.} is definitely wrong. Have you any knowledge about the languages Sanskrit and Latin?
What do you think about ‘changes’ taking place? Is it good or bad?
If you do not allow changes, how should the developments be described and expalined, like medicine and computer science?
I have heard and convinced that Arabic, Persian and Turkish languages have lovely richness, high culture and fascinating poetry. Have you read Humayun Kayyam?
Cordially ‘vaNakkum’.
P.S.
You can as well tell us some words for thanks, good morning, …, glad to meet you, in URDU language. Definitely it is your mother tongue?

Arabic has a very long and steady cultural and traditional history. In addition, Arabic is the only ‘‘Classical Language’’ which stands the test of time without any major changes both in alphabet and in grammar. The best example is our Holy Quran…am I right…?

Anyone can correct me if I am wrong. Thanks.

Hi WillCout!

Muito/a = mucho/a (Spanish), many (English)
Obrigado(a) = obligado/a (Spanish), obligated, obliged (English)
Grato(a) = gracias (Spanish), thanks (English)
It is all correct?
Peace to you!

Hi Sahid59,
vaNakkum.
It is right or vaNakkaM?
*
You say: “Arabic has a very long and steady cultural and traditional history”.
How well do you know it, are you well-versed in Arabic?
As far I know, Arabic, Persian and Turkey languages were closely related and exchanged cultural heritages. Thus Persian words are integrated in Turkey and Arabic too and vice-versa. And I confess, I have nill knowledge of Arabic, a rich language. May be my comment is too daring.

    P.S.
    I did not know well about using this Forum. Therefore I have made another comment for you seperately. May be you would find it.
