Renu; If you have any keralites near; it will accelerate your learning process... do that as well.. Ths year; I have resolved to speak properly in Tamil (My DH family settled in Chennai)
Thank you Nitha J...my main problem here is we are not staying in desi community area..so i can see americans around me ...so I have to rely on this thread...I tried networking site LiveMocha too...somehow i was not comfortable... this one I found best ...
Hi Renutn Can I add something, your efforts seem to be mocking at me! I am ashamed to say that I am a true blood malayalee, who doesn't know malayalam well whereas I'm fluent with Hindi, Konkani etc.....You have motivated me to make a serious effort in learning malayalam to more depths. Cheers Mega
