The good intentions are still there and my vocabulary is inching slowly forward but this amongst some staggering statistics from this country which are worth noting.
English speakers in India outnumber those in Europe. More Indians speak English than any other language with the exception of Hindi and most Indians are bilingual if not trilingual.That is quite an impressive statistic.
Last night on the train back from Jaipur I listened to a lovely young man speaking to his group in fluent German while over the weekend we found groups of Koreans and Dutch all being briefed about the beauties of Jaipur, the Pink City in the language of their choice. More about that in the next few days.
Multilingual, multitalented and multifaceted.A winning combination.
