What was THAT, Senhor Bernado? Come again ... were you
referring to the *cheddiwallah,* like one who dons the RSS

or to one who belongs to the world's oldest profession?
And who says Konkani is not a rich language, whether written
in Devanagari or Roman lipi? Same spelling, what a world of
difference does intonation make!
