Always in sadness, more than anger

 

There was perhaps no greater champion of the English language than

Douglas Marshall, of the Toronto Star paper’s former entertainment editor. He

had a habit of sending writers memos about mistakes in their copy, no matter

how small. They always started the same way – “Always in sadness, more than

anger.” English language, which is considered world language and to whom

most of Bharatiya media people, industrial and commercial people are mentally

slave. Even English language, which is considered a world language, needs a

protector and propagator like Douglas Marshall.

No matter how highly educated the Bharatiya media person is, he / she considers

its honour by putting filth and garbage in Hindi in the form of Urdu and

English words. What to say of the management, who are supposed to use correct

and pure Hindi, they themselves use very impure and defective Hindi. It is a

case where fence, which is supposed to protect produce or cattle, fence itself

becomes destroyer. If management of Hindi world is not able to maintain the

purity of Hindi language, then who can protect the purity and survival of Hindi

language? Hindi media people are very poorly qualified; they are not able to

distinguish between Hindi and Urdu words. If they are told the difference

between Hindi and Urdu words, even then they have so much love or affinity for

Urdu and English words, even then most of the media people prefer to use Urdu

and English words than Hindi words. It

is doubtful it is due to poor knowledge of Hindi that they prefer to use Urdu

words in Hindi. The other reason could be craze of simplifying Hindi and the

only way of simplifying Hindi is to use Urdu words instead of proper available

Hindi words.

In the film industry, media people rather than giving the cast of Hindi film in

Hindi, give cast in English language. Sometimes even Hindi film producers do

not bother to give the name of Hindi film in Hindi. In Hindi film Insaan, even

the name of film is not written in Hindi. Hindi Film Bullet producer has not

bothered to give the name of Hindi film in Hindi. About 50% Hindi film

producers do not bother to give the name of Hindi film in Hindi.

Mental slavery is not only in the blood of Hindi media people but has gone even

into the bones of Hindi media people. In such a case what should be done to

decolonise the mind of Bharatiya media people.

Like Douglas Marshall Hindi media people should have language expert

persons in their departments or in their organisations, who should correct the

language of reporters and journalists. Like Douglas Marshall these expert

people should send a memo to other media persons pointing out what mistake has

been made in the use of Hindi and what is the proper Hindi word. Only then pure

Hindi can come out from impoverished media people.

In late 60s or early 70s, a Hindi daily "Sandesh" was started in

Delhi with lot of fun fare and lots of advertisement. This paper did

exceptionally well. After some time, a communist person became the editor of

that Hindi paper. He said to the whole staff that Hindi used in Sandesh was

difficult and must be simplified by using Urdu words. He instructed the whole

staff that lots of Urdu words like Mulk, Thahat, Matahat, Azaadi, Iazzazat,

Shurkhiya, Shukria etc. be used instead of proper Hindi words. After the

arrival of that editor, the paper closed down in one year. It is the same

situation of most of the present Hindi media. BBC. VOA, Radio German use lots,

lots of Urdu words in Hindi, but public is unable to raise voice against the

unworthy staff of these media organizations.

Sanskrit is considered as dead language. It must be revived and must be taught to all media people:
