Tanglish

Ever heard the word 'kaaram-ness' (காரம்-ness ~ spiciness)? I loved that expression despite the fact that the situation in which Anirud used that word was hardly the one to enjoy such expressions.

Despite carefully combing for the presence of chillies, one of them found its way to the brat's plate and from there to his mouth. Even after gulping down glasses of water, he was jumping up and down claiming 'the kaaram-ness is still there in the tongue'. While we laugh at the discovery of such new words, it irritates him to no end as he thinks that we are laughing at his misery. :)
