Strange statement below. Typical stereotyping. If you are Catholic one speaks Portuguese and Hindu has to speak in Concani? Before 61 the upper echelons of Hindus were very good exponents of the Portuguese language. BC
What's more, the fact that Sardessai was a Hindu writing in Portuguese, rather than a Catholic, was unusual. All of these elements, taken together, brought me to the conclusion that the entirety of Sardessai's poetic work was worthy of translation.
