Maybe you've seen all of these before but still worth a laugh or two eh?! These are all extracts from letters allegedly written by not-so-literate Indians.
- "Since I have to go to my village to sell my land along with my wife, please sanction me one-week leave." - this application for leave got instantly approved apparently with this somewhat puzzling post-script in the reply - Tell me how you did it!.
- "as I want to shave my son's head, please leave me for two days.." - kind of gruesome don't you think?
- "as I am marrying my daughter, please grant a week's leave.." - off - that's the word you're looking for mate - marrying off!
- "As my mother-in-law has expired and I am only one responsible for it, please grant me 10 days leave." - gotta hide the body and generally let things cool off you know.
- "Since I've to go to the cremation ground at 10 o-clock and I may not return, please grant me half day casual leave" - casual cremation is fairly rampant in these parts you see.
- "I am suffering from fever, please declare one-day holiday." - declare a 3 day nation-wide mourning too while you're at it, yeah?
- "As I am studying in this school I am suffering from headache. I request you to leave me today" - sweetly candid kind of student eh?!
- "I am enclosed herewith..." - ah, so that's what that big box I got in the mail contained.
- "Dear Sir: with reference to the above, please refer to my below.." - I am so glad I am not the addressee.
- "My wife is suffering from sickness and as I am her only husband at home I may be granted leave" - at work's a different issue altogether obviously.
- "I am well here and hope you are also in the same well." - because i've been swimming around looking for you all day man...
- "This has reference to your advertisement calling for a ' Typist and an Accountant - Male or Female'... As I am both for the past several years and I can handle both with good experience, I am applying for the post." - experience is always good, really.
