For the past few days, both ammamma and thatha have been fervidly trying to make me answer all sorts of simple questions they would ask in the three different languages I am learning.
One such question was, What is your name ? "Noo peru emmi ? " in Telugu and " Unnoda Peru enna ? " in Tamil. I refer myself as Nanu ( Vickram is quite a long name to say yet ;) ) so I was saying Naonu when they shooted one of the above questions at me. My ammamma was so very proud of my accomplishment and she keeps saying that nobody pronounces " Nanu " better than me. PS., I say " Naonu " It is more of a Nonu :D
Thus the game began, I was answering so very politely whenever I heard the name question, be it any language, the answer was the same..so it was fun playing the name game. " Naonu..Naonu..naonu " I kept saying it over and over as they were not getting tired of the same question...But I got too tired calling myself Naonu.. One time Amma called out, Vickram noo peru emmi ?? I said with the best cutest airs - " Chapaatheeeeeeeeeee "
So there you go guys, my mom is calling me as Chapathi now.. I am what she says I am ;) , so my name is Chapaatheeeeeee !!!! How do you like my new name ? pass on your comments.
