Hi friends .. Blogging after a long time !!

bserved a few things ... felt like sharing them !!

Here are some rules on how to communicate in Hyderabad:

• If you want to clarify a thought, state it and then ask "No?". eg: "Today is Monday. No?".
• If you want to present a thought, state it and then add "only". eg: "Today is Monday only".
• If you want to agree to an idea, say "it is like that only".
• If you want to agree hesitantly to an idea, it follows from previous rules that you say "it is like that only, no?".
• If you know one thing and you think there are additional things, say "and all". Eg. "This US and all are in Iraq"; implies US, UK and their coalition are fighting in Iraq. You can say "and all" to fill in the gaps too.
• If you want to talk about things that are not known to the audience, prefix each sentence with "actually", "basically" or "generally". For example, "My name is Babu. I am from Kerala. I go there every weekend." translates to "Actually my name is Babu. Basically I am from Kerala only. Generally I go there every weekend."
