on a marathon translation
On a massive marathon of translating a huge questionnaire from English to Telugu.
Huge because the no of pages could be more than 200 pages!
Now I understand my difficulty with my native/mother tongue as well as professional tongue!
Luckily Google Translate is coming to my aid for word to word translation if not sentence to sentence translation!
Mumbling the - Hum honge Kaamyab- silently and to the extent I remember. The song was later part of the first movie of N Chandra and Nana Patekar- "Ankush"- if I am not wrong!
Reminded of the reciting of the same by most/many of our IRMA batch mates in the lawns of the campus- may be just after the convocation! Repenting why I did not sing properly at that time itself!
The above mentioned huge questionnaire is part of an intensive research project of about 10 months implemented by University of Berkely, World Bank, Innovations for Poverty Actions, BMGF, Westat, DRS etc for SERP/IKP.
