Well India is divided into 29 states , and each state has it's own local language , and each local language has many sub-dialects , as you go deeper into the state.

And this is not even counting the languages which are not very much in common use(i.e "dying out" languages used by certain communities) , languages formed by mixture of other languages (eg : A mixture of hindi and urdu) , and languages imbibed from other countries ( English , urdu etc).

While hindi is spoken across the nation , one also has a grip over his local language , and the language spoken by his parents (i.e "mother tongue").

Well that's too vague a description man , I may be no food expert - but maybe if you describei t better ( colour , ingredients etc) I could help you out.
But what comes to mind right now is this dish called haleem , traditionally a non-veg curry but recently they made a vegetarian version of it.

What is the difference between Pakistani Punjabis and Indian Punjabis also what is it like where you live locally?

Well , since you ARE a south asian , you would know that when India attained independence , India and Pakistan were one. But thanks to the crappy leadership we had at the time , it made sense that Indian Muslims could no longer continue in India , and needed a saperate state. This ridiculous notion actually went all the way to be implemented , and Pakistan was born.

The unfortunate and bloody partition dealt a great damage to life and property , giving rise to communal tensions etc.A good portion of the migrants from india into present-day Pakistan were from the indian state of Punjab , and thus Indian and Pakistani Punjabis not only share cultural , but in some cases blood relations as well.

As a South Indian , My family was not affected by the partition , but I do have friends from north India , Whose families had moved from present day Pakistan into India during the partition , leaving their whole estates behind.

What language(s) do you speak?

Well , I speak and write in English , HIndi and Telugu.

I can also somewhat understand Bihari , Punjabi , Tamil and malayalam , and I finished my level 1 of german recently.

Well , i'm very comfortable with Indian food.My basic diet at home everyday consists of Rice and curry , and sometimes Roti too.

But then I do love pizza ( Domino's cheese burst ,Yum!) ,McDonalds , Subway sometimes.

But I prefer homemade Indian food.I love my mom's cooking .

And I'm vegetarian btw , so I guess my diet is a bit restricted.

My school could have easily had around 1200 - 1400 students in total ( from kindergarten to 12 grade).

The university i'm studying in could easily have around 10,000 students .

If you are driving an ice cream and curry truck that has a statue of Bishnu on top, and see a dead cow on the side of the road, do you stop to bless said cow?

Also could you end your sentences here on out with "Thank you, come again." It'll show your wisdom.

No "I'm new threads" and enough of these lame "ask an uninteresting person something" threads.
