C’mon, we need some Hindi-speakers to rock this shit. Anybody…?

um… anil, it would appear to be arabic, not hindi. of course, that is coming from only a limited familiarity with the language.

Yeah, well, sure it’s not Hindi. 🙂 Stupid me. I’m gonna go guess at Arabic as a second guess. Vis10n is smarter than me.

Okay. I’m now thoroughly perplexed. Am I being put in my place by someone who — given their Indian heritage — may very well know that the phrase is Hindi, but just can’t translate it; or am I being stroked.

I think I’ll walk around with blinders on a while longer and just be flattered.

Heh, no I was corrected by Saima that it wasn’t Hindi. And I felt dumb.

Did she tell you what it actually said? Or does saima only speak Urdu? Any who, don’t feel dumb… and thanks for the link to the great blog! So, where were we… oh yeah: this is Matt’s blog, and he had a question…

hindi, urdu and punjabi

i’ll hedge my bets on bengali or one of the sri lankan languages, i’m waiting to hear from my sources 🙂

Bengali, eh? Hm… keep us posted!

So, I wonder if Matt would even notice if we set up blog here, in his comments? We could call it 963.
