Happy birthday Nish! :-) :jig: Hope you have a great one!

:confused:Why do male Indians use terms of endearment, like 'dear'?

I think in this case, the idea is that it's from the song -happy birthday, dear Nish, with the last word in the message and not the subject. But, overall, I believe a term that's commonly used in India, translates to 'dear'.
