Guys ,
Today I want to discuss about yesterday's incident which happened with me during heading back to home from office.
Let me first discuss about the incident .
What happened I stopped by to me nearby home shop to buy some candies , the shopkeeper was absent and his wife was there , what happened one man arrived and was ordering her to make "pan" (leaves of the betel plant wrapped around tobacco, fruit, etc. and chewed , especially because they have a pleasant effect like a drug.)
Now what happened during the procedure of making pan , he ordered and was saying please put this ingredient and that ingredient by different rather common names.
What observation I made is that the shopkeeper was confused as the person was saying different name of a particular thing called Aniseed by saying green mouri , green seed and etc , here the lady of totally confused and was able to make the pan properly , resulted and complete dilemma,
Another instance what happened I went to a shop and asked them that I need a vegetable called Indian squash", "round melon", "Indian round gourd" or "apple gourd" or "Indian baby pumpkin" but I was saying Tinda in hindi and the person was Bengali and didn't knew the hindi word ,
So In the first observation the thing was sorted out somehow but , with dilemma ,
but in the second observation / instance I got to search either the Bengali Name of that vegetable or look at his hawk table and identify personally .
What I meant to say , everyone should be acquainted with common name of the things for convenience for both the persons.
