@saliltripathi @KhakiLab @DGALitAgents @AlephBookCo Hello @saliltripathi I really enjoyed your talk on the Seen and the Unseen. Really makes me want to connect with Gujarati literature here in the US. Are there any magazines that I could subscribe to here or any other suggestions you might have, thank you!

@arr4yoflight @avtansa might be able to help?

[Sumil Desai @sumild]

@avtansa Great explainer, thanks!

[Sumil Desai @sumild]

@avtansa question for you - how/why did Hindi lose the ‘ળ’ sound (as in Gujarati ઢોકળા)? And the ‘ણ’ seems to be less common as well

[Sumil Desai @sumild]

@avtansa @CheriChe I also think it’s because of a lack of a ‘fa’ in Gujarati. Hence, whenever trying to sound proper you simply switch from ph to fa. For ex, fataakada (fire crackers)

@krishashok @ninjatalli @thoughtsum Oh I thought it was smuggled out of China by the British to break their monopoly, or is that too fantastical?

@avtansa Thank you 🙂

@Rajyasree Riz Ahmed was great in this one. Although I also just learned that the American version was based on the English version 🙄

@Rajyasree I don't know if you knew but this is what the show Criminal Justice was "inspired" from. The Night Of Season 1 Official Trailer (2016) | HBO https://t.co/ga5fRQDPuZ
