Who says English is easy?

Who says English is easy?I honestly did not know how to pronounce Freud-it was confusing,until one day one of my schoolmates corrected me,indirectly and since then I know that I need to pronounce it as FROYED and not FREEEEEUD.Lets take an easy example-COW;a person not knowing the English alphabets may pronounce it as CO,because the W in itself is a two syllabic word(if we consider it's spelling),so people can be mistaken and they can pronounce it as Co and then W but it's real pronunciation is CAUU.Another simple example can be the word MORE.Judged from the spelling,it should sound as MOR-E,with a clear emphasis on E,but in English we don't do that because the E becomes silent.The same goes for the word LATE because we don't pronounce it as LATE-E.Confusion persists in the pronounciation of A as well.It becomes difficult for us to contemplate if we should pronounce A as we normally do,when we follow the English alphabetical chart or should we pronounce it as Aaaaa.So w...

Varanasi : Vibrancy In Spirituality

I will try not to romanticize my stay and travel experience in Varanasi. I will keep it real. And here we start.  Last week of December 2024: So the train left the station at around 11am and we reached Varanasi at 6pm (same day). Nothing worthwhile happened other than me reading 'Harry Potter And The Prisoner of Azkaban' again.Also the man sitting right opposite to me, gave his Laddu Gopal to me for sometime. By sometime, I mean an hour or maybe a little more than that. Gopal Ji sat on my lap and enjoyed the scenic view outside while I tried to do the same.  After arriving at the station: Faced dirty, horrendous traffic. I booked a hotel via the Agoda app but couldn't reach the hotel via road or phone. This information is to communicate to my readers that I settled for far less than what I had hoped for. Let's not overlook the fact that I was already feeling very frustrated and angry at this particular moment. Mumma, as usual, was very poised and calm, outwardly. Got a ...

Kadambari Devi's Suicide note

-
A few days back i finished reading 'Kadambari Devi's Suicide note',by Ranjan Banerjee and though it struck odd notes in many places(my opinion),it definitely falls into the category of the must read books,especially if you want to explore Tagore's world.Most intellectuals or want to be intellectuals, appreciate Tagore for his modern outlook,but appreciating the modern aspects of a character or mind is vastly different from experiencing it first hand,and the process can be painful,like a morbid pleasure,it can be so addictive,that one does not want to come out of it, rather can't come out of it.This is exactly what happened with Kadambari Devi.A dilemma she was in because she was sapiosexual and was in love with her husband's brother,ROBI(Rabindranath Tagore).She was an exceptional talent but failed to realize it not just because of the environment that surrounded her but also because she loved Tagore with all her dreams and not just her life.An exceptionally unc...
