Just a suggestion, sometimes the updates are in hindi and english which makes it really difficult for people who are not fluent in hindi. Could the updates be clearly in english, instead of a mixture of hindi and english? Thanks!

I agree it was very difficult for me to read it. I can understand hindi however to read hindi which is written with english alphabets just gives me head ache.

There are a LOT of people who come onto this forum who either speak a different language and still watch Indian shows and cannot read or understand Hindi, or people who live in other countries who otherwise, do speak Hindi but maybe cannot read it. I speak Urdu, not Hindi, so while they may be similar in the language we watch, I have no clue what a lot of Hindi words mean. I would greatly appreciate if the updaters would also write in English. English is universal and people do understand that more. Plus the video updates we get are basically in Hindi anyway so why not leave it at that? I am not attacking anyone or anything - I love the updaters work and I am glad they are taking out their time to write out the updates for us. Please updaters, do take this consideration. There are many people in the forum who are from all around the world that speak different languages but all love Indian shows. I have many persian friends who love Hindi films and shows but they don't understand anything. English is the best way to go....

Thanks!

it's not the problem of updaters if you dont undertstand hindi. Sometimes it's hard to find words in english. Whatever they write in hindi appericiate their work rather than complaining.i dont mean to hurt anybody but still have patience with updaters,i think this is the way of irritating the updaters so they stop writting updates.

THANKS Aeny for undertanding.

First its a HINDI serial right. Now every person incld updater has his/her style and comfort of writing. Everyone has a unique flair of expressing. Its unfair to impose our comfort.

The serials are in Hindi and at times its tough for me to translate certain words or one-liners which I type out in English alphabets. OF course my adroitness in translating has exponentially increased. 😆

[quote=priya55]i can understand that there are some typical lines ' e.g. Dheer comes up with his one liners or Manno Bhabhi's famous ' your mother must have had karela' etc. which loose there essence when translated into english. [/quote]

As Priya has rightly pointed out there are one-liners which cannot be translated and not only loose their essence but are ruined. Try translating "Izzat ki Dhaggiya uda di". or "sadiyo se jo dhara prajvalit hue hai"

The majority of the update is in English for those who didnt comprehend the comments letting you know the comments are not significant to the storyline, they are extraneous to the subject so dont worry.

And some good friend can translate a particular sentence for those wishing. So is it fair now.

The forum is for having fun for everybody incld the updater, isnt it?. These complains only discourage the updaters which is not your intention, right. So lets have fun together.
