The video, which was originally uploaded on Twitter by one Syed Sleet Shah, has found its way to other platforms such as Whatsapp and Facebook as well.
A 36-second video of an elderly Kashmiri woman flaunting her newly acquired English skills has taken the internet by storm. The circle of life ! 💜They taught us how to talk when we were babies and how the turntables ! What is even more wholesome is that learning is a consistent process in life ! 💫 pic.twitter.com/NxQ7EHjAwZ
The video, which was originally uploaded on Twitter by one Syed Sleet Shah, has found its way to other platforms such as Whatsapp and Facebook as well.
The young man names certain fruit, vegetables and animals in Kashmiri and asks the woman, clad in traditional attire and easily looks to be in her 80s, to identify them in English.
Though she falters the first time while identifying 'cat', she then makes up for it by pronouncing the animal as 'kyaet', and her overbearing Kashmiri pronunciation seems to have won over the people.
