Darling, whoever you are, your english is just about average...at least what i can gather from your posts in this thread...your grammer leaves a lot to be desired! To cite an example, you wrote "It's definitely a stupid word to be using" ..to be using!!! Thats bad grammer. The correct sentence is "Its definitely a stupid word to use." . Your tenses are all wrong.
I am not surprised your relatives back home find you and your children snobbish. Thats because you are the worst kind of diaspora...the ones that think just because you live in a developed country you know better English... If you lived in the UK, I would still give you the benefit of the doubt. Just so you know, Indians are acknowledged to speak better English than the English themselves because we are taught text book language and because there is an avid culture of reading english Classics in this country. Also, because the English today have a lot of parochial influences that dilute the pureness of their language. What the English think of the Americans and their accent is best left unsaid. And how badly spoken are American celebs...that too the less said the better!
The word "senti"... Given your alleged superior knowledge of English, ever heard of something called a "slang"? If not, allow me to educate you. Its used to describe words like aint, chillin, juiced, gonna, wanna, gal, etc" ( all common phrases found in the american pop culture) which just like "senti" arent part of the English language...At least senti is an abbreviation of sentimental...
Now coming to Drashti Dhami. The girl has no airs or attitude...but you sure do-a ridiculous narrow minded, petty one! What you think of her doesnt really matter coz I as a fan, wouldnt want her to have intolerant silly fans like you who think no end of themselves.
