My view on Language, Culture

LANGUAGE

TAMIL is my mother tongue. I am quite happy to call myself a Tamilian. But in this blog, I'm not going to talk about a specific language; instead, I'd want to convey my general thoughts.

As we all know, language is a medium through which one can express one's feelings, emotions, knowledge, and so on. For each individual, their mother tongue (primarily) or the language mastered with enthusiasm since childhood is more valuable and comfortable.

I respect all languages, because the beauty of a language is only recognized by those who use it.

My Personal experience (When I was in Hyderabad)

When I was in a place where I couldn't use Tamil, I missed it. I learned about the significance of language and its impact on us. Of course, we can express ourselves in English, but let me present it to you this way.

In general, our thoughts will be in our mother tongue, regardless of the language we use. Agreed. When we visit a place for a short time, speaking another language may make us feel more at ease, but when we live somewhere for a long time and no one speaks our language, it does not feel right. 

Because once we start making friends and want to communicate something personal, we will begin to miss our native language. Suddenly, we will fall in love with the vocabulary, slang, and rhythm of our mother tongue, among other things. To put it another way, Tamil is in my blood. As a result, I ended up teaching them Tamil.

Culture

People from all across the world follow a variety of cultures. Culture is a 'way of life' for groups of people, as we all know. Everything our family does, we do as well. We adore our culture since it has been a part of our lives since childhood and is so recognizable to us. The same is true for everyone on our planet.

I've always wanted to travel the world and learn about different cultures. We only have one life, therefore let us enjoy and cherish as much as we can.

Life

We will realize the beauty of life once we get to know this. To me life is based on what I learned, realized, saw, felt for the past 21 years. For each and everyone life is totally different. The good in one's life can be bad in others, it's all based on their exposure culture etc. For example living together is considered to be a sin here but in some other place it's just a part of their life. It's based on their exposure and experiences.  Another key point is that we cannot understand the lives of others unless we have shared them. What is life?  Everything around us has been built solely to make human life easier. Let's give it an open thought. Pure air, food and water is enough to live here. It is that simple. But everything around us is just complicated. Life is full of promotions, discoveries, inventions, right, wrong, good, bad, first, last, gold, bronze, upper, lower blah blah blah. Life is actually not this.  There is no right or wrong in this world. It is ...

Money is always ultimate - Path to Financial Independence #4

MONEY MAKES MANY THINGS But, in my opinion, money controls almost everything. Money is something we constantly hear, use, and listen to. Almost everything we use is made of money, from the alarm clock we use to the brush, the paste, the soup, the mug, the bucket, the house, the food, and the car we use and soo on. When we are born, our parents ensure that they have enough money; as we grow older, we ensure that we earn enough money, and so the cycle continues. Though we are insistent that money is unimportant, we do, at the end of the day, require at least a tiny little bit of it to survive in this world. MONEY: Obviously we all know that money is a medium of exchange, a store of value and soo on. Is money, however, more important than this? Yes, money is linked with our emotions. Money makes us to do many things. Money is so important that it can drive someone to kill, rob, marry, make friends, and do everything, including things that aren't feasible.

CAROLINE ISLAND - A place which has to be visited soon. (Victim of climate change)

  Today I was just writing something in my diary and I happened to see the world map in it. When I was looking them I noticed something new, which is the Caroline Island. Then I started searching about the place and some of the things were very intriguing. So this blog is about Caroline Island. WHY INTRIGUING Caroline Island  is the easternmost of the uninhabited  coral atolls  which comprise the southern  Line Islands  in the central  Pacific Ocean  Republic of  Kiribati . Caroline Island has remained relatively untouched and is one of the world's most pristine  tropical  islands,  despite   guano   mining,  copra   (coconut meat) harvesting, and human habitation in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is home to one of the world's largest populations of the   coconut crab   and is an important breeding site for   seabirds , most notably the   sooty tern . WHY THIS PLACE HAS TO BE VISITED S...

Covid 19

  COVID 19 has been haunting us around for over a year. We initially assumed it was just a little issue that would pass quickly.  Today, however, the situation is different. The majority of things are out of our control, and we are receiving awful news every minute and seeing innocent people struggle everywhere. Most of us are getting emotionally disturbed and worried because we have never faced something like this before. There are a lot of things going through our heads right now. First and foremost, we are more concerned about our family than we are about ourselves. We make an effort to keep them safe and cautious. Then we're worried about our jobs, our friends, not going outside, our future, our lives, and so on. We feel that the days of planning something new and exploring are far gone. We see the same people every day and spend the majority of our time alone. Then there's the fact that we're worrying about Covid patients all over the world, individuals we don't ev...

INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION I completed my Btech (ECE) in the year 2020 in a good college. But the placement is not good for ECE students. I always wanted to do something in my domain and don’t want to end up in software jobs as everyone do. So I started preparing for Gate exam which kind of ended in failure in 2020. So I thought why not give another try. Then I took a year break and started preparing again but I screwed up during exam again in 2021. I am just a girl who is going to turn 22 in few days. Currently I am unemployed. From today I am going to share blogs based on what’s going on in my life and the hindrances I am facing as a girl. I don’t know much about the outside world as I have spent my last 3 years on studies. I am basically zero on many things. So I decided to explore. I am just a beginner, so I will share all my experiences.
