So here's where you ask questions about the language, the people, why we love chappatis, and like to show off. And whatever else is on your mind regarding Gujarati's and their language.
Got a question, or got something in general to say or ask me, drop me a line. Peace out!
i have a frnd who speaks gujrati! and mannn its soo confusing... but then i do understand a few wrds.. i mean when shes speaking... and lil mix of urdu aswell....but i find ahalf the things she speaks da same! the "ch ch" is the most used !i guess!
Anyyways, I don't speak. I just listen, nod, and answer in English. (Or just listen and nod and pretend I understand when it gets too good. )
never heard ahmedabad guji
randeri guji is more cityfied surti
whats one funny guji is alipawr one man......... that is funnykay:

Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one calling to Faith: 'Believe in your Lord,' and we have believed.
Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and expiate from us our evil deeds, and make us die (in the state of righteousness) along with Al-Abrar
whats one funny guji is alipawr one man......... that is funnykay:
Is that the one where they use words like "tamun" and "avio".
I don't know if it's alipawr, but i have a friend, if it wasn't for his manly voice box, it can get pretty hard to distinguish him from a male to a female. The Gujarati he speaks is totally one sided and somtimes speaks as if his a girl. (Ok i went a little far then, but it's so true, it's all the same)
Masculine and feminine is out of the window for some gujis.

Anyone been to India, what did u make of it. It was gr8 fun for me. *at times*
zAk...:rolleyes: You're IN India, of course you're expected to know the numbers. :rolleyes:
I've never been to India, but my brother went with my dad. And he realllly liked it. Hehe. The people were nice, the food was nice... He was supposed to stay there for some time, but ended up coming back. (This was time back, in the early 90s. )
