(A Joke on Keralites)
There is a common belief that Malayalees (Keralites) English accent is very poor and others laugh at them when they speak English. This is a joke made upon that line...
Contents
MALAYALEES/MALAYALIS OR KERALITES:
The
people of Kerala (A. southern state in India) members of the collection
of the ethnic groups defined by their native language 'Malayalam. They
are generally called- 'Malayali' or "Malayalees" this word
is derived from the word 'Malayalam.' The people who speak the language
Malayalam and are natives of Kerala are called Malayalis or Keralites
or yet another nick name added that is "Mallus".
There
is a common belief and saying that Malayali's English accent is poor
and others laugh at them when they speak English. Of course now the
trend is changed and an estimated 75 to 80% of the children are getting
convent or English medium education and they are proving or proved their
metal in many areas the world over. And among them there are a good
number of well educated and renowned professors, scientist and
business people. But still people make fun of us on our English accent.
There are a good number of created stories on this line. Just for a
change and for a lighter vein I am herewith posting some of the jokes
for the day. I am sure my Malayalee brethren (Malloos) the world over
will not get annoyed. Instead I am sure they take this lighter vein.
Here
is a sample of such stocks, received via mail from my friend, Vasanth
Kumar (A Telugu Brother). Hope my Malayali breth .
Don't
worry we are no less than anybody else. In literacy we are on the top
of the list. I congratulate and appreciate my fellow Kerala brethren
scattered all over the world.
Yet another interesting thing,
a common saying about Malayaalees are that "They are found even on the
surface of the moon" That means whereever you go you can find a
Malayaali. I am happy to note this with much proud, Keep up my dear
fellow Malloo brethren.
I am again proud to say that Kerala is the only State achieved 100% literacy rate in the world.
So Cheer up My Dear Fellow beings.
A JOKE FOR THE DAY
Q. Name the wonly part of the werld, where Malayalis don't werk hard? Ans: Kerala.
Q. Why is industrial productivity is very low in Kerala?
A:
Because 80% of the shift time is spent on lifting, folding and re-tying
the mundu or lungi (a garment worn around the waist) LOL
Q. Why did Malayali buy an air-ticket?

Another interesting part of this joke is given in the Post Script, it says:
PS:
Please don't delete this; it's not a junk mail. If you send this mail
to 10 Malayalis you will receive ½ liter cocunut oil. 20 Malayalis you
will receive 1 kg benena chips. 40 Malayalis you will receive 3Appams (a
dosa like preparation (sweet taste) prepare on festive seasons) and
mutton curry.
Yet another interesting joke I noticed is given below:
A
"Mallu" (Malayalees are called sarcastically by this word) female (from
the central part-more educated class lives in this part) of Kerala)
went for a job interview for the post of a PERSONAL SECRETARY.
When
the manager saw the Mallu's colorful attire and gold and well oiled
uncombed jet black hair, his mind was screaming "WHOW!! NOT THIS WOMAN."
Nevertheless, he still had to entertain the Mallu.
So
he told her "If you could form a sentence using the words that I give
you, and then may be I will give you a chance. The words are GREEN,
PINK, YELLOW, BLUE, WHITE, PURPLE and BLACK."
The enthusiastic Mallu lady thought for a while and said:
I
hear the phone GREEN GREEN GREEN, then I go and PINK up the phone, I
say YELLOW......BLUE's that? WHITE did you say? Aiye, Wrong number
........Don't PURPOSELY disturb people and don't call BLACK, ok? Thank
you."
Hearing this the Manager fainted.......

Hey....
Most of these jokes have become old now; also, some of them sound very much like the Gujju accents I come across in Surat--like benena instead of banana. Ungle instead of Uncle is a Mallu accent for sure.
"ISMILE" instead of smile could be either Bihari or U.P...There are countless more such examples; just observe when they speak...
The joke given below is also very interesting---I guess i should say "Bery interesting" since I am Bengali...
A Delhi Panju guy decides to buy 3 samosas from a popular road side eatery. He asks the shop guy to "rape" (wrap) 3 samosas for him. The shop guy asks "do you want them to be raped separately or together?"

Dear
Friend, Thanks for the comment, Yes, I know these are pretty old jokes
and i agree too that some other states like AP, Gujarat, Bengal and many
others too will fall into this section, but still keralites accents are
far more better than of all others, Just for the sake of some fun I
posted this, I am sure many of my Malayalee friends here and elsewhere
will not get offended and will take this lightly,
