Thanks to my several years of teaching experience, I am usually pretty good at error analysis, to figure out where an error stems from, what is its cause, etc., whether it's a literal translation from one language to another or due to concepts that re still being processed and not quite there yet, and so on and so forth but in Rubina's case, I am completely foxed I must admit. After a lot of thought, I have come to the conclusion that it's some kind of transfer from Hindi lol but am not so sure.🤣


Someone just put up a video of husband wife fighting/bickering over unsolicited advice from Rubina madam given without tameez that hubby was pissed off with. Now Abhinav kept trying to speak in Hindi but Rubina would have none of it and wanted to mostly retort in the queen's language interspersed with smatterings of Hindi. And every word uttered by the queen held pearls from the Ruby stable and I just couldn't resist making a post on it.


I wonder why she insists on speaking in English on a Hindi show where English is forbidden and moreover why she considers herself above others because she speaks English because she has no command over the language. How can one be so blissfully unaware of one's shortcomings I wonder because the first step to improving is to admit one has flaws which is quite normal. Everyone has flaws but then Rubina the so-called queen is not known to ever admit to her flaws or to apologize because she was wrong isn't it? Don't we know that by now?


So in that very short video, the following are the pearls that dropped from the horse's mouth:


1. Upon being asked by Abhinav to not give her advice in a badtameez manner, she retorts and I quote "Dungi hi nahi because everything is just itching you a lot". Like seriously?? Itching?

2. I think now you're talking extra!! 🤣

3. And you're being a rude.

4. Now, her parting shot as she escapes into the bathroom because Ruby mam surely believes in having the last word and I quote "Yeah right, observe your mind''. 🤣


Can anyone help me in figuring out these pearls?


Disclaimer: I do this ONLY in Rubina's case. And as explained many times already, it's only because she thinks she is superior to other lesser mortals who can't converse in English. She questions people's backgrounds, etc. etc.

She literally translates a Hindi sentence to English in her mind and then speaks out.😆

I’m sure with ur experience in linguistics, you might have recognised it.

Dungi hi nahi kyunki tumhe har cheez mein khujli hoti hain

Tum ab zyaada bol rahe ho

Tum hi rude ho (dont know what shuddh word she will use for rude 😆)

haan sahi hain, tum apne mann mein jhaanko or tum apne mann ko dekho, apne mann ko jaancho

I do the same. I translate german sentences into bengali and sometimes my mum looks at me like I am making no sense 🙈

she needs to stick to hindi, she'll gain more respect! I will just keep typing this multiple times until someone slyly tells her so in her house. Every time she speaks even a couple of random conversational lines, I cringe! The ridiculous aspect of it all? she uses this to prove her higher social standing, mostly to herself. Rv came close to pointing it out but checked himself :P. I watched a video where she used 'prolific' to bitch about someone and Abhinav had to literally spell out the meaning and its positive connotation. Facepalm!!
