Now here's something i love about Goa, my native place.
Have a look at this conversation.
A: Kaso aaasa ? baro maare? (How you doing? doing good?)
B:hay. hau baro aasa ... sushegaat... ( yeah, i 'm fine. relaxed....)
blah blah blah about everything else and they come to main topic.
A: Niste kite haadle ? maka aaj kaiichh miluna mare.. :(
( any fish u've got? I've got absolutely nothing, in a sad tone)
B:hay. Makaibi maatshi sungta milli. saamki baarik. ( I've got just little prawns and nothing else)
Now the best part - this conversation took place between a Pujari ( Hindu priest) and my uncle while we were doing abhishek to Bhagwaan Shiv in a temple.
You might think this is blasphemy or hypocrisy. But it's not... It's just how we Goans live....
Eating fish - drinking fish and living with fish.....
