Hindi is my mother tongue. Even though I do not get to use it as often, it's still a part of me.

I can speak English. I can speak Hindi. I can understand one or two other languages.

I can speak a little bit of Hindi but understand every word.

I grew up, as many Indians do, in an archipelago of tongues. My maternal grandfather, who was a surgeon in the city of Madras, was fluent in at least four languages and used each of them daily.

My Hindi is OK. I think I am better with Tamil. I remember the Tamil words.

If I have to do something, I feel I should do it perfectly, and ofcourse, Hindi language is a problem.

I speak, Hindi, English, and American. I'm trilingual.

I have stayed in south India all my life. English comes more naturally to me than Hindi.
