I respect your views, let’s assume @DimerAbhi grows up physically/mentally some day and he reaches an age where he goes for an interview. Considering the fact speaking English is mandatory, let’s set him up from now so what say?
Let him start learning, please don’t underestimate his English speaking/writing capabilities. You need to bring out the hidden talent from him

Arree waah!! So that compulsory English rule has been implemented to help @DimerAbhi clear his interviews

Lol

Karmas to you for the humor:lol:

Wat if I say that I am not good in Hindi nor am I good in English, I can only understand Bengali ?
Will there be a rule that everything on dd must be converted to Bengali to facilitate non-hindi and non-English speaking people!!

Sir read the last paragraph of my post. I said ‘i m in favour of the new rule’

As u and @Achilles were saying that why the indian ecommerce websites not moving to hindi, i wanted to bring to your notice that they are. If u read the article you will find out they are moving to other localised languages too.

I want to speak alot here on this thread but can’t coz I don’t know what some Hindi words actually means in English Humour hai re… Oops.. Just kidding

@DimerAbhi why its so difficult for you to understand that witting in English will help everyone to understand deals & discussion better. You are free to write in hindi, you just need to provide translation for it, so that everyone can understand and reply.

What they mean is Google does not understand anything else! so just help them with their SEO where it matters! Other forums space they give a damn as that’s not where the money is made and no language issue North India gyaan is given!

I was just correcting DimerAbhi… it is not about North or South.. we have to think about a country as a whole

What about Dost and Dimes? English does not matter ? India as a whole concept does not apply there?

I agree that practically english matters more. What i mean by admins would hv first thought is that they could hv organised a poll or a discussion or anything like that. Now this way it is not going to end in a good way. If a poll or something like that would hv happened, everyone would hv been satisfied (hope so) coz it would hv been done in a legitimate manner and would hv been a more democratic approach.

However, such translations can’t be made available on a user-contributed site like DD. People who are so bad in English that they don’t even understand written English will always find it tough to use the Internet or tough to live their lives in today’s digital age. And tools like Google Translate are available for such people.

No one take it personally!
But I would like a full disclosure of all paid dimers or employees to please mention about their existence!

Why don’t you just be honest about it?

Like for example Nigel is a profile which clearly behaves like a employee(I don’t know if it’s a general company profile or a single person)

Even in the Indian Parliament a member is allowed to use both languages(English and Hindi) as per one’s discretion, and the best part is that a person speaking Hindi doesn’t have to translate it into English or vice-versa

I never asked why. I pointed out the fact. A few eCommerce sites are making Hindi or other regional language versions available to perhaps tap the new customers in rural locations.

there will be a day when google starts ranking Hindi content at par with English will your policy change then?

Would you be ok?

Why don’t you float a banner saying incorrect language and website names will lead to final warning and ban!

I don’t care about Google’s ranking policies as far as language is concerned. I just know from a practicality point of view that English has been chosen as the international language of choice. Having lived, visited, and worked in a few countries, I know that a common language is very desirable and English is a good choice, for reasons that are out of the scope of this discussion.

Wow, now you are either going to see me suspended in couple of days, or i am not going to comment in hot deals. #RipThisRuleAndAdminsLogicOnThis…!
Finally @anthrax.ut you didn’t keep your words, i didnot find English in desi anyway…!!!
Many of the dimers don’t know English, AND I FOUND BETTER TO BECOME A SURFER ONLY, INSTEAD OF GIVING A CHANCE TO PEOPLE TO LAUGH ON MY ENGLISH bcc some users who also have to know this!

@DimerAbhi @ishandon @VaibhavJain
Am i missing something?

Moreover i request all prominent English speakers to teach this ( including me)
so that Sbka bhala ho sake

Jokes apart @ishandon & @DimerAbhi But if you both already know English, why dont you use English in Hot Deals Section. They have refrained Hindi usage in a particular section. So, please avoid it. Post as much as you can in Dost & Dimes, more guys will join in. Why create unnecessary fuss over this matter again & again. Admins also understand Hindi better than we all do but there has to be some sacrifices somewhere. Please co-operate them. Incorporate changes within you as well. I am sure you will learn newer words everyday. So start today and surprise you friends and relatives with a better vocab. I assure you that later in life, you will thank DesiDime for helping you in polishing your English.

Well, we have travelled as well and I love the progress made by Germany, Japan and China and you know which language they prefer!

@DimerAbhi respect your opinion but a discussion of this nature will only create chaos. Maybe a dimer with more than 100 posts is allowed to vote or something like that would be a good idea. Just my opinion though.
BTW I another idea for u why don’t you use swalekh app. It is an app which creates hindi contact to english. I mean if u type hindi in english fonts it will automatically translate it to english. This way u don’t need to use google translator either.

Looks like u haven’t read my 3rd paragraph either. I hv already quoted this in my previous comment what u r quoting in this comment. Please read it to avoid any mis- understanding or any confusion:
But what the main issue is that in ecommerce websites the content is created by the e-tailors or the developers but in websites like DD the content is created by the users itself.

I did read your entire post carefully. But your post lacked clarity about what you are actually trying to say. It contained statements for and against using Hindi and the closing statement was really ambiguous in terms of what you are expecting from the admins. Please clarify what you are asking for.

Though i m in favour of the new rule but admins would have first thought about users like @DimerAbhi and many others who are not very well versed in english.

@DealSeeker i agree the last paragraph did lack some clarity. So i m making it clear:
I agree that practically english matters more. What i mean by admins would hv first thought is that they could hv organised a poll or a discussion or anything like that. Now this way it is not going to end in a good way. If a poll or something like that would hv happened, everyone would hv been satisfied (hope so) coz it would hv been done in a legitimate manner and would hv been a more democratic approach.

As @DimerAbhi is of the opinion that poll creates fake votes. I suggested this:
@DimerAbhi respect your opinion but a discussion of this nature will only create chaos. Maybe a dimer with more than 100 posts is allowed to vote or something like that would be a good idea. Just my opinion though.
BTW I another idea for u why don’t you use swalekh app. It is an app which creates hindi contact to english. I mean if u type hindi in english fonts it will automatically translate it to english. This way u don’t need to use google translator either.

Hope i m able to clarify. I would prefer the option of using swalekh app coz having used it i think it is the best app coz it offers typing sentences in hindi, only english, hindi in english fonts to english words.
Edit : My bad, it doesn’t convert hindi to english, it converts english to hindi. Sorry

Oh the irony ! why did the great amazon went with “AurDikhao” campaign ? they could have stuck with “Next” .

As well now it will become obligatory for DD staff to change the site name .

The word desi comes from Sanskrit language which is clearly not English .

Bhai itni mehnat mat karo, Bhiwandi Station ke paas mein Ladkiyaan sikhati hein saste mein English bolna.

When you go there, they will first ask you ‘what the fcuk do you want?’ Just tell them, you dont know English and they will take you in!

Meine wahi se seekhi hai!
