Hindi Translation

Hello Koryakov, I was quite surprised on seeing your message and am intrigued as to why you chose me. Anyway, I am honored and here is the translation of the words you asked in Hindi. I am releasing this work under Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike 2.5 license. I had not written anything in Hindi since my sophomore year in high school but doing the translations obviously came natural to me. These translations are presented in Khariboli, which is also the standard Hindi. I was born in Lucknow and subsequently spent most of my life there, which is why Khariboli is the dialect i am used to. I have been living in Philadelphia for the past seven years but my Hindi has not been influenced in any way. I do like to point out one thing about the translations for verbs, I have given the translations in action verb form. For instance, the Hindi translation of hear is given as सुनना, which is actually the translation of the act of hearing. Hindi has different representation of verbs depending on the context so this was a necessity. But for most of the verbs, you can just remove the last character to get the exact translation. So hear in I can hear you would be मै तुम्हे सुन सकता हूँ in Hindi. I hope I am clear enough. Please do let me know what project you need these translations for.

Ilois creole

There isn't much on Chagos Creole, what I've heard or read is that it was similar to Seychellois.. The big thing is though people from Chagos have adapted(language shift) to Mauritian and Seychellois Creole..it's a fairly small jump from what I think Ilois creole would sound like.. there are several things we can discern about the creoles from the Indian Ocean, excluding Reunionnais, as a comparison to Mauritian Creole.. mainly a: vocabulary..Mauritian Creole has taken numerous words from Hindi, Tamil, Chinese(some dialects), all the words from basic vocab are derived from French you know: mwa=me twa=you li=he/she zot=them.. if you look at SC you wouldn't see that slight influence on vocabulary.. I believe (not certain)that Seychellois or Chagos has taken some words from African languages that Mauritian hasn't..well several words are still in use by older people in African-descended communities, but they're being taken out of use... that's the main thing I can see the use of words of Bantu-Malagasy origin and the use of a more basilectal(if you looked at it but not technically basilectal) creole as a comparison to MC..Domsta333 11:09, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
