Sometimes im reminded that Malaysian tend to have like the habit of switching up languages with no big issues and forgot that not everyone can do that

I went to the local food market, the type that is out in the open with several stalls all placed together closely and its crowded and stuff right

So I talk to my brother and sister in English, Mandarin + Cantonese to my mom and dad. If we're ordering food from the aunty uncle, we either use hokkien / fujian or Malay (depending the race of the seller)

There was a neighbouring customer who were white(think they were from America judging from the bag and general mannerism) that started talking to my dad and he was just saying how insane we sounded switching languages around HAHA

How do you say “milkshake duck” in Marathi? Both literal and idiomatic translations would be helpful. Thanks!

Uhhhh I can't think of any idiomatic translations for this phenomenon.

Literally, milkshake would be loaned from English as मिल्कशेक [milkśek] and duck would be बदक [badak].

Therefore we get मिल्कशेक बदक [milkśek badak].

(Given the original milkshake duck tweet context however, I would probably use it as मिल्कशेक वाला बदक [milkśek vālā badak] for additional nuance. This implies the duck has something to do with milkshake, which the listener is familiar with).

I'm dying to know what this is for.

XLI

The Boatman is out crossing the wild sea at night.

The mast is aching because of its full sails filled with the violent wind.Stung with the night's fang the sky falls upon the sea, poisoned with black fear.The waves dash their heads against the dark unseen, and the Boatman is out crossing the wild sea.

The Boatman is out, I know not for what tryst, startling the night with the sudden white of his sails.I know not at what shore, at last, he lands to reach the silent courtyard where the lamp is burning and to find her who sits in the dust and waits.

What is the quest that makes his boat care not for storm nor darkness?Is it heavy with gems and pearls?Ah, no, the Boatman brings with him no treasure, but only a white rose in his hand and a song on his lips.It is for her who watches alone at night with her lamp burning.

She dwells in the wayside hut. Her loose hair flies in the wind and hides her eyes.The storm shrieks through her broken doors, the light flickers in her earthen lamp flinging shadows on the walls.Through the howl of the winds she hears him call her name, she whose name is unknown.

It is long since the Boatman sailed. It will be long before the day breaks and he knocks at the door.The drums will not be beaten and none will know.Only light shall fill the house, blessed shall be the dust, and the heart glad.

All doubts shall vanish in silence when the Boatman comes to the shore.

(Rabindranath TAGORE. Fruit-gathering)

नमस्कार! मी आता तीन महिन्यांपासून मराठी शिकत आहे (तुमच्या langblrने मला खूप मदत केलं आहे). मला मराठी वाचायचं practice करून नवा शब्द शिकायचा आहे, पण मला वाटतं की योग्य पुस्तकं मिळणं अवघड आहे. तुम्ही नवीन मराठी शिकणारांसाठी काही पुस्तकं suggest करू शकता का?

In the likely case my Marathi was confusing, I’m looking for book suggestions (or any literature) to practice reading Devanagari and grow my vocabulary. Thanks!

हा निरोप वाचून मला खूप खूप आनंद झाला. तीन महिन्यांत तुम्ही इतकी प्रगती केली! कौतुकाची गोष्ट झाली ती तर.

मराठी साहित्य जगाची माहिती माझ्याकडे कमी�� आहे. 😓 पण मी जितकी पुस्तके वाचली आहेत (सर्व २.२५ पुस्तके 😅) , त्यांच्यातून मला रत्नाकर मतकरी यांच्या गोष्टी सर्वात सोप्या वाटल्या.

तुमच्यासाठी त्या योग्य आहेत की नाही हे मी सांगू शकत नाही, पण मी "Read With STR" प्रकल्पात त्या गोष्टी वाचल्या होत्या. येथे पाहा:

मला हा निरोप पाठवला याचे खूप खूप आभार. असले निरोप पाहून मला प्रोत्साहन मिळतं.

वाचत राहा आणि वाचत राहा!
