what does a telugu student want for his birthday?


What does a telugu student want for his birthay? nothing more or less than a brand new telugu-english english-telugu dictionary! the grand prize of a friday field trip to the indian book store out in the suburbs. a measly thirty-five bucks to learn such juicy tidbits as "ఉడుం, uDuM n. iguana; a lizard-like animal known for its strong grip; this animal is reported to have been used to help scale the fortifications in medieval India." Bonus.

if that were a college textbook it would have been $350.00 instead of $35.00!
