    This one is more like it, but in this context, "I b*nged your sister" is more accurate.

    I've seen Hindi movies where the heroines call the villains "saale". That doesn't seem to be much of an insult based on your explanation. Does it have other meanings too then?

    Who do you think should be the heroine in this context - John? :laugh:

    Cheers, Vikram.

        mechanical's deleted message was a translation. obscene and incoherent is a good summary. Apparently the incoherence was in the original not the translation.

          That isn't Kyle, for sure. Because he/she/it speaks Hindi (with a whole lot of grammatical mistakes in that too). I think a non-Hindi speaking person would not be able to make up even this much of Hindi.

          actually, given that I've seen a few stray English words in it, is there an online English to Hindi translator somewhere that the kidiot could be using? Kyle seems like too much of a slacker to manually translate something, and if he did, why would he leave some words in English? I could see him not bothering to closely examine output from babelfish easily enough though.

            Looks like he copy/pasted it from some other online board.

                Yeah, but it was nonsensical. Everyone thinks Ragu is Kyle. Either way, I got to exercise my acerbic nature, so in a way, I am in his debt. :)

                  Actually, it is somewhat convoluted. In parts of India, when someone who is not related in any way to you calls you "brother-in-law", he is implying he is having sexual relations with your sister! And that is an insult.
