Do these questions sound familiar? If you are living away from your hometown they sure should! These are the ones we get in the land of Sun, Sand N Sea!
1. When did you come / Kenna aylo?
Well most often its the day or previous day so no point asking me this!
2. When are you going back/ Kenna challo?
As if I am staying at your house? How does it matter to you!
Alternately you could say "Oh you seem to be keeping count of the fluctuating population of Goa!"
3. Still at the same job/ Ajun tich company mare?
Lets play a quiz: Tell me the name of the company I last worked at, then we'll talk about job switches!
4. Any plans to study further/ Fude shikpak sodta?
Yes lots of plans. But why should I tell you? Wasn;t it enough that you asked me if I was placed while still in graduate school? Now that I am working, you want me to go back to studies? Come on - make up your mind for once!
5. Hows the weather over there/ Chad thandi/garmi re?
I think the met department does its job or maybe you should just Google. What the hell, not like its going to turn cold cos I come from a colder city.
6. So you are the next eligible for marriage/ tuje lagn karya nhi ata?
Exactly what you were waiting for eh? The way you are asking, I am sure you make a hefty commission on match making!
7. When are you coming back for good/ Parto kenna yevpacho?
Its the same thing again. When I was here, you would ask if I din't want to work in metros. Now that I am there, you want me back!
Well there are many more questions and alternate answers I could think of but for now this should do the trick!
