Are the mother tounges of India forgotten by us?

Answer 1

WE ARE ADOPTING WESTERN CULTURE IN ALL THE FIELDS.

Answer 2

I agree with you to an extent. I know a friend who comes from a Gujarati family, and can't read or write Gujarati. I haven't seen anyone who can fluently speak or even understand Sanskrit. With the onset of English, many of our languages are being forgotten. However this cannot be considered a bad thing. If we are to emerge as a world power, it is essential that we should know English. One of India's major trumps over China is the English we speak here. However, Hindi must be made compulsory in all schools, as it is the national language.

Answer 3

Hi Rohit,
You have asked a right question. This problem is in our country itself. Our own people hesitate to speak in Hindi or Sanskrit, which is most important languages in our country. We all want to speak in English, because of one thing called status. Simply because of status our own people don't want to speak Mother Tongue. This is fact, another fact is still people speak in Sanskrit, as it is mother of all mother tongues. This can be solved by educating the new generation. You can be a great mathematician, businessman, economist or even a scientist through one language, that is Sanskrit "Mother of all Mother Tongues". Earlier days our people used to learn Arthashashtra, Vanijya, Ganiit & Vigyan which are small examples, through which they people became great like: Kautillya, Chanakya, Aryabhatta. All these are the great people who taught the entire world & still the other countries still depend upon there rules & values till date & further. They did'nt had any Oxford Certificate. They had learned Sanskrit & taught everyone & administered all over. We should be proud for our Heroes. This much information is enough to creat interest & keep up the Respect of Our Mother Tongue with all coming up New Generations. Through this we will not forget our Mother Tongues.

Answer 4

Yes. Of course. This is because everybody likes to speak in English. Rather he is ashamed of speaking in his mother tongue. Everybody should give priority to the language in the following sequence: 1: Mother tongue, 2: Language of the State, 3: Language of the Nation, 4: Other languages. I love persons who are talking in their mother tongue. The above options should be selected in preference to which language the person understands to which you want to communicate. Because of not using your mother tongue you are surely going to forget it. The result will be you will be loosing so much of good literature some body from your premises has created for you

Answer 5

Answer 6

sanskrit in the ancient mother tongue of india and people still speak it. It is very uncommon to speak during regular conversation, but I have met pundits that spoke it fluently. What kind of question is this. Besides the mother tongue of india is not all of our mother tongue.

Answer 7

May be! Hindi Celebraties talk absolutely in English - surprising. People like to talk in English and pretend to be unknown of their mother tongue.

Answer 8

it is true with the people who have migrated to other countries... they usually forget their mother tongues after a couple of generations...

however, back home our mother tongues are intact and will continue to be so in the time to come...

Answer 9

I am in London, lived here all my life, and I am very fleunt in my Gujarati. In fact, my relatives from India were pretty shocked! I'm proud I can speak it actually. :)

Answer 10

Hmmm, I really think it is not accurate, seriously in fact we love our mother tongue more than the foreign languages we have learnt.

Answer 11

I'm afraid but yes.

languages which were once famous like Prakrit,Sanskrit have certainly suffered a severe blow.
