My Mother Tongue...
My Mom can't speak English, so can't my grandfather, unluckily they were not born in the age when education especially in English was common. My mother like to watch sports sometimes too, especially when national teams are playing.
Now what makes me feel odd about those sports shown on the television is that commentary English is spoken such that 100 percent of the nation speaks English, which by the way is not true, only 10% to 15 % people can speak and understand it....then why are these channels not translating them to the national language....why are they taking away the real entertainment from people by imposing language barriers between them......
How can a nation grow if they don't respect for their language...I wonder.
