Speaking in Tamil

Considering the fact that Anirud has been living in UK since he was 5 month old, his conversations in Tamil are reasonably fine - until now. We are not sure how his language will shape up when he goes full time schooling. However, the way he pronounces some of the words are real funny.

Naana (நானா?) - Naava (நாவா?)

Ammavoda (அம்மாவோட) - Ammanoda (அம்மானோட)

This basically comes up from 'unnoda', 'ennoda' (உன்னோட, என்னோட) kind of words. He simply started applying the last bit to 'appa', 'amma' etc. ;-))

Point and Shoot :)

Perhaps, Anirud will not like to view this as a key milestone in his life. But, in my opinion it is. The biggest development of our recent Indian trip is that he learnt to pee from standing position. ;-))
