Dear Joe,

Good to see genuine pride in one's mother and mother tongue. There are few
of us left.

Maink azilant galpi toh put o doo nuim, Goenkar nuim, munis nuim.......toh
ek doidhiro!
Teka lahn aslo tenna 'orphanatan' gatlo'lo tor toh kitem mhunpacho? Poishe
aslear munis zaina; budh aslear'rui munis zaina: kaliz aspak zai.

One cannot say that one is a son or daughter , if one parent is in a "Home
for the aged"... a purgatory on Earth. Neglecting one's parents is no way to
show gratitude to them for having cared for you as an infant,changing
diapers or washing soiled nappies. They could have put you in a posh
orphanage!

Viva Goa. Viva Konkani.

Miguel
