General human thing..envy, avarice, dislike, like all coded in the dna of the species..whoever rises above all these has indeed attained perfection!
Some people believe that giving compliments can invoke the evil eye, while others think that recognizing someone's strengths means they are more knowledgeable or capable than we are.
Thank you sainthavi! Good to know a different perspective. True when we compliment or greet Indians - they look at us strangely 😊, but that’s how most of us are trained from our childhood. Talking to strangers (normally) is considered bad and weird in India - here it is the reverse.
A leading complication due to our strange habit is complex family relationships. Americans are much saner and independent becoz they spend less time with family and more time with strangers whereas we spend more time with family and less time with strangers.
I am agree, upbringing matters
In my opinion, we don’t compliment even in our native tongue. Compliments do not exist in our vocabulary- whatever language we are proficient in.
I agree
True... true
No no..we have a name for karandis too, kuzhi karandi, chattukam (dosa thiruppi), thei karandi (teaspoon)..
We dont use slooted spoons as we pasta is not in out routine dietary spread...
In general the desi ethnic group is a bit in the envious side only😂
How old is Vivin ?
15
@ young boy! Very brave though 😀 and articulates well
But noticing something good about anyone ought to be a spontaneous thing, vocab, languge, dialect etc dont really matter.
25:03 - ha ha ..so true … we are used to criticism and not compliments 😂😂😂
