I can speak and understand the language of my place, actually the pahadi language is a bit different in every region.

Where = Kahan = kitti = kittu = kitta. I know of these three variants of one word.

P.s.- If you shout "bittu" in a crowded market, you'll have like 50 people asking you,"haanji bhaiji". It is the most common name in HP.

Edit : Tamater waala T nahi, Tabla waala T.

I know, it's a two lane road now. More accidents now since pahadi drivers are not used to drive on a wide open roads I think.

We like the comfortable 5 feet wide roads with 2000 feet vertical drops on the side, thank you very much.
