The word punor-ut.than may be used for Revivalism  Nobo-protist.han may be another Assamese word.
 
Regarding usage of any Indian language words, all Indians now a days use about 50% English words in their day to day conversation. If one open any Hindi or Bengali magazine, all report in regional language are full of English words.  Watch a Hindi movie dialog. Probably every third word is an English word.
 
Assamese are fast following like a loyal litikai. Smart boys in Guwahati now a days like to speak in Hindi.  In the literary circle, Assamese I think still use many Assamese words in short stories and novels compared to the Bengalis. Even short stories in popular Bengali 'Desh' are now a days full of English words.
This is the state of affairs of the poor Indians.

Out of pure curiosity and considering the interest it has generated: how often have any of you actually used the word  "porhuoixokol" and  "porhuoi" to refer to readers in your writings?
Another question (just struck me): what is the Assamese word for "revivalism"?

  What does " porhuoixokol " mean? Are ' porhuoixokol' and ' pathok/pathika' synonymous?
