Well this mail has inspired me to come with our own lingo ... the lingo of BE-3. It's vocabulary rivals that of the Bombaiyya lingo. I'm proud to present some of the BE-3 Lingo.
Dedicated to all the Crazy BE3 Americans and lunatic guys in Bahrain
1) Gopi ->
a guy always surrounded by girls. Mythologically speaking, it doesn't make sense at all since the guy should be called kanhaiyya but what the heck, this is BE-3 in your face lingo. Totally original term hai.
Eg: Kuljit (former Gopi), Sourabh, Ketan
2) Gopa ->
the gender opposite of a gopi. a gopa is a girl constantly surrounded by guys. again an original term.
Eg: kanan (former queen gopa), swati (current gopa)
3) Kalti ->
is to leave someone high and dry waiting for you while you fun and frolic elsewhere. well this is not an original term but is frequently used to describe the behaviour of many a good friend (so-called) of ketan and sourabh.
Eg: Hum Lonavala mein chouda dost log ke liye chaar ghanta ruka, lekin woh log ne kalti diya aur mauj masti karke aaya.
Translation : We waited in Lonavala for our 14 friends for 4 hours but they left us high and dry as they indulged themselves in a waterfall.
4) AnnaConda ->
Again an original invention. This later led to the creation of Anaconda. Annaconda meant Mr. Menon who in the First Year seemed like a vicious South Indian Anaconda. And so nicked Anna-Conda. This days this term has disappeared into oblivion as Mucchad a lingo used for years has prevailed for Mr. Menon.
Eg: Run ... Anna-conda is coming.
5) Anaconda ->
Anaconda refers to a multi-purpose utility tool that the Emperor Rohit, Lord of the Land of Bananas uses. For further information on this please contact Rohit Kelapure or read the story me and ketan have written : Mohabbatein.
Note : Rohit please forgive me for using this term here. I had to mention this as it's one of the most commonly used lingos in our conversation. Please spare me.
Eg: No need for examples ... read the stories on Lagaan and Mohabbatein
6) Cheapu ->
Cheapu is a person who continuously makes vulgar references, cracks naughty jokes and remarks or behaves in a vulgar manner. This lingo was actually created to describe the behaviour of a certain individual langoor in the class who would stop at no lengths to prove he's the best. (or the worst) Initially limited to a few male monkey members of the class, this term now emphatically describes the behaviour of a majority of people of the class.
Eg: The 4 monkeys.
7) Despo ->
Despo is a guy/gal desperate for the opposite sex (in some cases it might be the same sex too) and would stop at no limits to get what he/she wants. Again a term specifically created to explain the behaviour of a certain individual bhand from comps.
Eg : Nitin
8) Shiner ->
A guy/gal who tries to impress (woo) the opposite sex for long durations of time ignoring friends of the same sex.
Actually shiners are now classified into 3 types
1) Successful Shiners
2) Unsuccessful Shiners (called Triers or at times Becharas)
3) Reclusive Shiners
This classification was made to divide the large number of shiners in the class according to their performance. Those who managed to impress the opposite sex were called as Successful Shiners while those who tried pathetically were referred to as Triers or Becharas. The third category was for those who tried to impress only a specific person or group of persons.
The Successful Shiners were the sauve, funny, charismatic, confident, cool shiners who had the opposite sex drooling over them Eg: Sourabh and Ketan
The Triers were the ones who made a fool out of themselves as they strived for creating an impression. Eg: Saad
The reclusive shiners were either successful or just triers. We shall not go into deep research for this type of shiners. Eg :
1 - Kaushik who shined for all the teachers.
2 - Laukik who shined only for Bairry.
3 - Hemen who shined only for someone we know.
9) Lagaan ->
Lagaan refers to a tax. In fact a very different kind of tax. It's quite similar to the entertainment tax that is levied on movies. Please refer to the features of Lagaan in the story Lagaan. Those who do not understand, contact any of the 4 bandars.
10) Java ->
Please refer to the features of Java in the story Mohabbatein. Again ... if you do not understand .. contact the 4 bandars.
11) Bhai urf Badaa Admi urf Shanaa ->
It was tagged on to poor Rohit Kelapure in the 2nd year. It's stuck on ever since. Rohit's greatest regret has been that even the girls have called him Bhai for 3 years. Bada admi stuck to him because of his decision to migrate to foreign lands. Shanaa too was for similar reasons.
Well I would like to dedicate this paragraph to a person who was derided, teased, humiliated, molested, tormented, suffered IN-OUT torture .... the list goes on. But he still managed to forgive us time and again. He laughed sportingly at all the jokes we cracked on him. But for him, life in Shah and Anchor would not have been the same. Thanks Rohit. We are really going to miss you out here.
12) Bobby Ji Ni Vaadi
Bobby's house in Santa Cruz was a place everybody loved to hang out. Vishu made it his home while the 4 monkeys satiated all their hunger(Bobby's fridge), desires (computer), passions (computer), greed (fridge raids), internet hours, thirst (Tang), phone (conversations with lopa, asmita etc) ..... Also a famous place for parties. Used by Chandru for tap-dancing.
We all miss his house very much. Bobby please come back .. we need your house.
13) Kt, Bunny, Sobby, Bobby, Harry, Swats, Monty, Kullu, Mamu .......
Nicknames created uniquely at BE comps referring to you know who all.
Eg: " Hail Bunny. "
14) Kovali ->
Kovali in true sense of the term means fresh. Taken from a marathi word. Used specifically for Amit because of a discussion that went on for 5 hours at Bobby Ji Ni Vaadi till the early hours of dawn. It refers to Amit.
15) Tutorials ->
A term used to describe the theorotical tuitons that Kt took for certain guys and I took for certain girls to make them more aware of the realities in life.
Well there are a lot of terms which have been used again and again. These are all the ones I could come up with. Hoping you like my mail. Replies are welcomed and expected. Please contribute with the terms that you recall.
