Dear mm,
 
I would rather love to see a prosperous ASSAM (where everyone is educated, where corruption is a tabboo, where everyone has a livelihood, where we chat in a website run in assamese scripts where we will not have a pointless argument about what letters to use to spell the name of the state  in roman script) than a poor, backward, uneducated or half educated and corrupt OXOM. Inferiority is the last word in mind to describe myself (to be an akhomia). that is why i have decided serve in assam. I want assam to flourish not oxom to survive. if we flourish we can probably take the name
xazwhgtiyas also.
untill then an argument about assam or oxom is a waste of time.

Dear Mr Boruah,

(Boxonto)?

Even if we spell our name as xazwhgtiyas from the land of xazwhgti ,the world will have to learn and spell and say that way! They have no choice-because I call myself that!

Oxom is so  sweet and simple--simpler than  Xarkov-Ukraine's 2nd City ,or a hundred place names in Dutch,German,Scottish,Irish . And can you spell any of one lakh Chinese place names?

It boils down to how inferior you feel youself calling Oxomiyas of Oxom. I feel excellent and on top of the world -doing that.

First of all I believe that assam and assamese are the most popular and established english versions of okhom/oxom and okhomia/oxomia.Like wise we use India not Bharat in english text, I think it is more appropriate to use assam/assamese if we write in english.
Moreover it will never be possible to make outsiders pronounce oxom/oxomia (using roman alphabets) the way the native speakers pronounce these two words. Anyway thats a controversial isssue
 
thanks for your suggestions otherwise.
 
regards

<constructive discussion regarding assam and assamese.> MaybeOxom/Oxomiyas

Why don't you list out say 10 different subjects-nearest to your heart-and you begin with a short essay- on the first subject of that list -then others will comment/cut/modify/negate/vilify/ecstatize..... You can  put a stop at 100 postings  and do net summary--won't that be good?

Maybe another form of blogging-show how!

Them you have all yourQ's/A's+ fun!
