Ashu, There is NO any direct relation/correlation between LANGUAGE and NATIONALISM. LANGUAGE is a medium to exchange ideas and views among the actors of the society which are very important for the development of any socioeconomic sectors. Language is not for only Ashus but for majority of countrymen--- How many Ashus are in Nepal now? (Less than 0.005%?). Callow judgments over the MOST SPOKEN language is the result of OVER SMARTNESS and BIG SHOW OFF-- as Kathmaduties had some one/two decades ago. Nepali language has a very standard grammar as better as English. There is NO any serious problem for direct translation between English and Nepali, for those who do not hesitate to learn Nepali Grammar. Of course, the people who do not want to study or feel shy while studying it must have such problem---similar to all other language. YES, Nepali Language has many slang. That's why it is very pleasant and friendly and easily understandable. We have very clear formal counterparts of these slang---so, there is no problem in formal writings. Sanskrit is the origin of South/East Asian languages---starting from Nepal to Thailand, Cambodia and even Japan. Sanskrit/Nepali has plenty of vocabularies and there is ZERO chance of falling in the voids to express any views or ideas except for those who do not study it. Most of the Nepalese fail in ENGLISH, not in NEPALI. Get real please !!! Ashu, you have a profit-oriented mind. Language is not for direct profit. NONE of the languages gives the JOB. BUT, it has a countless impact in the socioeconomic development. Compulsory Nepali in 11th Grade does not bar any students to make progresses in JOB-oriented disciplines. It is for the better communication with Nepalese communities. If a Nepali can not communicate in sufficient detail and exchange views and ideas, there is hardly any contributions from him or her for the cummunity development. If you are really serious and, not making fun here to show your English proficiency, please go through standard Nepali Grammars and Sabdakosh. Reading books just for finishing does not help you to improve your Nepali Language. You have to be serious to learn and give some time for it. ------ OK
