Paper short abstract:

India is the most linguistically diverse country in the world. In terms of social complexities and cultural diversities, India is more than a state, larger than a nation and bigger than a country.In this context we have studied 'Hinglish', mixture of Hindi-English language.

Paper long abstract:

India is racially, culturally, linguistically, ethnically and religiously the most diverse country in the world. Language is more than just a means of communication. It influences our culture and even our thought processes. Culture is an integral part of society and it decides, in most of the cases, behavior of a man. It also determines man's attitude towards world, nature and God.

Language, Culture and Society are closely related. "Culture" means a complex collection of knowledge, language, rules, rituals, habits, beliefs, and customs that link and give a common identity to a particular group of people which is reflected in the language. Cultures change over time, though the change is sometime very slow and imperceptible. But the changes can be seen. A common way to greet people was Ram-Ram or Namaste, which later changed to Hello and Hi. Similarly one can see change in society too. "ATHITI DEVO BHAV" [guest is God] was written on the entrance of every Indian house, which later became "WELCOME" and now we can see a board " Be aware of dogs". In India a new kind of language is emerging which is neither Hindi nor English but we can call it Hinglish .i.e. Hindi-English mixed language. Let us see how much Hinglish is acceptable in our society. But the youth is Loving it.
