India has many languages. Same words have different meaning in other languages.
for example:-

தமிழ் பனியில் தெலுங்கு பனி செய்தால் மலையாள பனி வரும்

பனி in tamil it is snowfall, in telugu it is work, in malayalam it is fever.

a tamil fanatic in our office spelled his name as thatchinamurthy. we appreciated his enthusiasm till a foreigner came to visit us.
He asked for a man named that china murthy, we could not fathom his query as no one named thus is available.
Till some one said he is none other than our thatchinamurthy
