Description
Languages are a help, they can also be a hindrance. They are a binding and a barrier. They are bridges as well as blind spots. It is how one takes them. Everyone cannot be a linguist or a polyglot.
Knowledge of an Indian language other than one’s own mother-tongue is an additional qualification and an asset in communication in our multi-lingual country.
There is growing demand throughout the country, and even among foreign visitors to have easy, handy phrase-books for better parlance and communication between speakers of different regional language.
India has several languages! Selected sentences from 14 languages are given in this book. Meanings are given in Hindi and English. Each sentence is spelt in Devanagari and Roman Script, so that everyone may be profited. This book would be very useful for all those who know Hindi or English.
