Thanks sandhya... Today i have learned something with your help. :)
Can anyone explain is there any story behind the name change of banglore into bangaluru?
Ooru....in Tamil means place. Isn't it Kannan? I think, it has same meaning in Karanataka also, so they changed to local name.....Bangl'ooru'.
But I don't know what this 'bang' is. Is there anyone from Karanataka?
No, this is the real one. Very soon, I will be adding you too.
Just 1 week acquaintance is not enough for me to make a person so close. It may take some time. So wait for it. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Never mind I have some other friends in Kerala, especially in Trivendrum and Kochchi. They are always willing to invite me to their places.
Trivandrum has changed to Thiruvananthapuram 20 years before, I think in 1990 or 91. But even now, most people prefer to say Trivandrum, Trichur, Calicut and Cochin. i don't know why :whistle:
Can anyone tell me?
Don't you assume the people calling these name could belong to that era. Besides I still like Bombay, Delhi and Bangalore more than their new names. And did you mention illiterate, I am proud to have cleared my class 4 exams with 37% marks. :lol:
