Hi,everybody. I'm from China. I love Indian songs and dances.
Everytime I hear the melody, my heart's cord is like being plucked.
I don't know Hindi. Universal as music is, language is the biggest obstacle to savor the lyrics deeply. <!--emo&

Forgive my ignorance. Can you tell me what Rakesh means?
It's a name. But I'm wondering if it indicates any caste or smack of social echelon? <!--emo&:unsure:--><img src='style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/unsure.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='unsure.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Indians speak very fluent English. Chinese and English belong to different language systems. Before expressing an idea in English, we have to find similar words equivalent to what we mean in Chinese. In most cases, that's extremely difficult because of the huge culture gap. Simply no equivalence!
I'm curious if Indian have to take so much time as we do in searching for the so-called equivalent English words before you speak out, as Hindi and English both belong to Indian-European Language system.
Thank you all. I wish to travel around your incredible country some day. <!--emo&:lol:--><img src='style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='laugh.gif' /><!--endemo-->
