Dialects - Tumblr Posts
Here’s some light on how to better understand the locals. To go there & get a fuller experience, please look in this.

(Go to Ainu Mosir, please, and listen to this Japanese language form.)
Borrowed words usually come from the minds and mouths of bilingual speakers who end up moving between different cultures and places. This can happen when certain events – war, colonialism, political exile, immigration and climate change – put speakers of different language groups into contact with one another.
It's about time people need to stop thinking of dialects and accents (especially minority and rural ones) as a judging factor or something to mock. People shouldn't have to feel ashamed, humiliated, insecure or fear of being judged for having a hint of their native dialect/accent while speaking the standard version of a language or even speaking in them completely at a new place.
We call it 'Haadi' (हाड़ी) in Awadhi dialect (Hindi) [I mean atleast that's what it's called in my native dialect which is broadly Awadhi]
It's called 'Tattaiyya' (ततैया) in proper Hindi
I've been stung by them thrice. Once it was while riding on a motorcycle with my father when I was a kid, it bit me on my toe and flew away. There are hilarious anecdotes regarding these nasty wasps in my family with equally nasty marks too.
Quick question, what do you call these little fuckers in your native tongue:
In mine (marwadi/rajasthani) it's called Taantiya (टांटीया)
Also how many times have you been bitten by one?
One of my favourite discussions during school lunch time used to be on the topic of vocabs.... especially the names of Vegetables and Fruits! Even though small cities weren't that diverse in terms of people from different states but it was pretty diverse in terms of regions and dialects from within the state and it's so interesting to know how manyyyyy words are there for the same thing that too in the same language!! We'd have so much fun getting surprised like, *says vegetable name* "What's that?" "You know *explains the shape and size and colour of the vegetable*??" "Ohmygod it's called that in your home??? *surprised* It's called this in my household!!!" And then it's a discourse about what's it's best recipe.
