would like to add some but am unsure if my spelling does justice to the

pronunciation, "chittee chamrhee", where chittee is white and chamrhee is skin

in punjabi

the Komagatu Maru incident (the turning back of a ship of Indian immigrant farm

workers from Vancouver, BC in 1914). She needs to know what slurs, slang, or

derogatory words the Indians involved would have applied to the British or to

the employees of the Immigration offices. I already suggested Ferenghi and

Gora (log), but does anyone know any others?

 

Thanks,
