apparently you come from a place in India where they speak only Queens English. (Queen here is probably Mamta-Di)

What is the meaning of "Avishek"? First you cannot write your name properly....commenting south Indians? try to reach out to nearest south Indian...they can teach you how to pronounce a word starts with "V".

Hey Avishek, you know? 'Virus' is often pronounced 'bhaidus' in Kolkata. What do we call that? Kolkataism?

English has too many problems of its own, it is not a 100% grammatical language. spellings are often inconsistent. they have followed it blindly, why we too need to follow it similar way ? whatever travels to new area, it has to get adjusted to the surroundings, similarly english language has travelled to the corners of India and it has to bare the local modifications. nothing wrong in HINGLISH, everything evolves in it's own way. languages are just a tool to understand and communicate with others.
