Why do we continue to talk about Konkani in Devnagri or Romi??

As you are aware our Muslim friends in Goa and southwards write Konkani in the Urdu script -- our Mangalorean friends write Konkani in the Tulu script -- and we are all speaking KONKANI? Maybe Konkani is also written in the Malayali script in Kasaragod and south.

Why do we not accept that Konkani is such a universal language that it is written in so many different scripts and yet we are all speaking the same language, with some minor
diffences in accents??

I think there is here reason for joy rather than dissension !!!!!!!

Let us take pride that our language, Konkani, is written in Devnagiri, Romi, Urdu, Tulu and any other scripts and thus there is a very much larger section of population who call Konkani their mother tongue.
