That moment when an author dots the last period to his manuscript, and then rises up from the study-chair to shake its many and bulky pages together is almost as exciting an occasion as -when he takes a quire or so of foolscap and sits down to write the first line of it. Many and mingled feelings pervade his mind, and hope and fear vie with one another and alternately overcome one another, until at length the author finds some slight relief for his feelings and a kind of excuse for his book, by writing a preface, in which he states briefly the nature and character of the work, and begs the pardon of the reader for his presumption in undertaking it. A winter in Kashmir must be experienced to be realised.

In TESL Program In the Feinstein School of Education and Human Development Language Group: Kashmiri (Koshur) Author: Micaela Folan Program Contact Person: Nancy Cloud ([email protected]) By Micaela Folan TESL 539 Fall 2011 Kashmiri is spoken by 5,420,000 people in India. Most speakers are in the northern most state, Jammu and Kasmir. The language spreads through the Himalayas and plains across country boundaries outlined below in blue. There are 5,640,940 speakers in the world including India, Pakistan, China, the United Kingdon and United Sates. This land was historically settled by Indian inhabitants. Over the years Muslim rulers have forced religious conversions. Pakistan has raged war on this land for the past 70 years to gain control. The UN has established the borders colored here. They were not agreed upon by Pakistan, shown in the green, or China, shown in the yellow. (Wikipedia) “Nameste” is “Hello” Men shake hands and link arms as a sign of friendship. Women avoid touching and eye contact which is seen as flirting. Hugging and Kissing is not appropriate outside of a marriage in a private home. Their ears are sacred and should be treated nicely. Ruff touches are seen as an insult. Indians run late for appointments, but this is their social normalcy and not considered rude. They remove their shoes when entering most indoor locations (places of worship, homes, some shops and businesses). Indirect eye contact is best.

It is also widely spoken in India with the influence of different ‘variety’ of Indian languages which ultimately results a variety known as ‘Indian English’. Indian English is serried phrase that refers to variety (various forms) of English used in different states of India. The term ‘variety’ is used to refer to any variant of a language which can be sufficiently delimited from another variant.

Kachru PREFACE In writing a pedagogically-oriented manual for learning a language, it is claimed that an author generally has a specific type of consumer in mind. These consumers are defined, for example, according to their age group or first language identification, or in terms of their goals for specialization in a particular second language. If one is guided by the latter category in planning a textbook, such a textbook is termed a “register-oriented” textbook. However, the producer of pedagogically-oriented materials soon learns that a pedagogue’s partiality for particular types of language learning materials is a very personal matter.

  • Azad Kashmir
    Azad Kashmir The home of British Kashmiris Waving flags of their countries of origin by some members of diaspora (overseas) communities in public space is one of the most common and visible expressions of their ‘other’ or ‘homeland’ identity or identities. In Britain, the South Asian diaspora communities are usually perceived as Indian, Pakistani, (since 1971) Bangladeshis and Sri Lankans. However, there is another flag that is sometimes sighted on such public gatherings as Eid festivals, Pakistani/Indian Cricket Matches or political protests across Britain. 1 This is the official flag of the government of Azad Jammu and Kashmir. 'Azad Kashmir' is a part of the divided state of Jammu Kashmir. Its future is yet to be determined along with rest of the state. As explained below in detail, Azad Kashmir is administered by Pakistan but it is not part of Pakistan like Punjab, Sindh, Pakhtoon Khuwa and Baluchistan. However, as a result of the invasion of India and Pakistan to capture Kashmir in October 1947 and the subsequent involvement of United Nations, Pakistan is responsible for the development and service provision including passports for the people of Azad Kashmir and Gilgit Baltistan, another part of Kashmir that is not part of, but is controlled by, Pakistan. Under the same UN resolutions India is responsible for the Indian controlled part of Kashmir. In all parts of the divided Kashmir there are political movements of different intensity striving for greater rights and autonomy, self-rule and/or independence. The focus of this chapter, however, is primarily on Azad Kashmir, the home of nearly a million strong British Kashmiri community.

It is a great translation because the originals have given way to new meanings’—Hindustan Times ‘With its fine balance between scholarship and creative rigour, Hoskote’s book is a persuasive reminder that critical intelligence is not incompatible with the quest for the sacred. This connectedness, Lalla—as ecstatic mystic and discerning guide—reminds us, finds ways to endure, through historical adversity and human amnesia’—Tehelka ‘Meticulously researched and beautifully written, the book starts with a 69-page introduction which explains the social, historical and philosophical context of Lalla’s poems.
