Reply #120: Kerala's language is Malayalam

[IronLionZion]

Your daughter must be in Maharashtra if the language is Marathi. I'm sure it's tough in the villages and in talking with uneducated people, but most people will know English in the big city of Mumbai if she goes there.

In Kerala, they have universal public education, 100% literacy, and everyone speaks English, the problem is many refuse to speak it kind of like the French. I asked someone for directions in English one time when I was visiting, and he said I should learn my mother tongue (my ancestral language) first, only then do I deserve to go there! LOL

You're daughter should get a pass on that since she would be a foreign visitor. And of course she will be most welcome to go anywhere and no one would care about her period.
