 The author interestingly points out that like Indians, Americans also drove the British out of their country but allowed English to stay back. The Americans made the usage of English easier by giving up Passive Voice. For example, instead of, Trespassing Prohibited‘ they say, Newly planted, don‘t walk‘ on the notice-board. This process of modifying the English language is called toasting. Americans have created certain basic key words which may be used anywhere, anyhow- words which have universal multipurpose use. O.K, Yeah, are more commonly used expressions. Finally he concludes by adopting English to suit our purposes, developing a Bharat brand of English‘. He clearly mentions that he is not advocating mongrelisation‘ i.e. hybridization of 11 English. The author asserts that Indian English should have its own identity, its Swadeshi Stamp‘. The author wishes that Indians should develop their own English which would be more unique and distinct than the present English.
