Why do we want to translate each and every word in Hindi? Is it not futile to do so ? Each language becomes more richer by accepting popular foreign words! Like the Oxford Dictionary accepted the common Hindi words like Bazaar , Coolie etc.etc.
In Indian languages common English words like Time,Chair, Table etc are also accepted .
So why we are wasting our precious time for finding suitable Hindi translation of "Table Tennis", "Lift", etc etc?
