Mind your spellings please !

In this SMS age....so often we come across words we have to read twice...even thrice to understand their meanings.....suddenly every1 is "SMS"ing.....messaging...Spelling mistakes are bound to happen...."Sweetheart" becomes "Sweatheart"...."Husband" becomes....."Hasbaind"......"Friendship" becomes......"Frandship"....."College" becomes..."Collage"...and well the list goes on..

If you are writing "Hindi" in "English"....then the situation gets even worse !My "kyun" is people's "kuin".....my "hota hai" is people's "hota hay"....my "bohat" is people's "buhat"....my "mere" is people's "meray".....I got a similar sms from a friend which actually made me laugh out loud !

Hmmm.....so the story goes like...Me and a friend of mine live nearby...and we go to the same coaching...so we go together......sometimes we take my scooty...and sometimes hers.Now yesterday I got an SmS from her which read like.....

"Saniya yar teri gadhi se chalen coaching?Aaj papa ko kaam hai wo meri gadhi le jaarahe hain."

Hahahaha....ofcourse what she meant was a "gaadi" and not a "gadhi" but i couldnt help laughing imagining me and her...riding a "gadhi" to the coaching :D
