Shashi Tharoor |
Who does not know about the English knowledge of Congress leader and former Union Minister Shashi Tharoor? Tharoor often makes his scholars feel exposed by bringing out the obsolete and extremely difficult words of English. He did the same on Friday.
Senior Congress leader Shashi Tharoor used the term 'Folkinokinihilipilification' on Twitter on Friday. There was a discussion about its pronunciation and meaning.
Tharoor used this word during a Twitter dialogue with Telangana Rashtra Samithi Executive Chairman KT Rama Rao. Rao said that the names of drugs used to treat the coronavirus are very difficult, which is not easy to pronounce.
On a lighter note, any idea who comes up with this unpronounceable names for meds? 😀
