Nepali languages!

So, it's already been two months since I joined the office and I made a lot of Nepali friends, from engineers to office boys to helpers and laborers. Whenever I'm with them, they usually teach me some basic nepali phrases.

So far, these are what I've learned (these are not the proper spelling btw, but that's how to pronounce them):

1. Namaskar/Namaste - Greetings!
2. Kit cha - How are you?
3. Tik cha - I'm fine; Tik chai na - Not good
4. Khani Khano bayo? - have you eaten already?
5. Malay bog lagyo - I am hungry
6. Malay tirkha lagyo - I am thirsty
7. (name) kahaanggo? - Where is (name)?
8. Timi molai mon fardina - I don't like you
9. Timi molai mon parsa - I like you.
10. Timi rimi ramri chow. - you are beautiful

To be Continued...


...because I'm already tired. :)
