Loquacious and its derivations

It’s derived from Latin loquor, to speak.
Soliloquy:
It mean a speech to oneself as its formed of solus, alone and loquor.  It makes us clear about soliloquize, soliloquist and others.
Circumlocution:
It has the same root: loquor. circum means around, so its meaning is talking around and not directly. Also be clear about next word circumlocutory.

My theory on why Muslims are cruel

Why are Muslims so cruel compared to others? Muslims got evolved in the deserts where, some decades ago, it was impossible for people to find food and other things to live with. There was no vegetation and is not today either. But there used to live some sort of animals which Muslims used to feed upon. This was the only way they got food to survive and survival is the most common desire of any person or creature in the world. This caused frequent killings of animals there for food. Continuously, doing this for years and years, they got accustomed  to it and had developed within themselves a cruel heart. Also this fact supports the abundance of oil in the deserts. The skeletons of the animals killed eventually turned out to be what we call the most important fuel today. This is just my opinion about the topic and I do not intend to hurt any Muslim person by this article.

My Nepali DNA!

ROSHAN KARKI Last Christmas, I gave away my spit but the very next month, the DNA results came back making me feel: Not-So-Special “Who am I?” This selfie question often reverberates in my head, even more so at times when my Nepali identity (ego) is questioned, challenged, or brushed aside by an Indian stamp far away from home. Over the years, this insecurity has been fueled by overtones of ethnic federalism—an idea entrenched on differences we possess as Nepalis, along the lines of caste, creed, color, and culture. The ambiguous talks on identity issues by journalists, scholars, and op-ed writers from Nepal have done little to ease my dilemma. The question resurfaced again in one of those Chiya-Chats at my Alma Mater in Connecticut among the most diverse, passionate, and intelligent Nepali students I’ve ever interacted with. Beyond the usual fervor of Mount Everest and Buddha, we seemed perplexed about our Nepali identity: whether to associate with our country, align with our eth...

Sajha Yatayat

A few days ago, I boarded the new Sajha Yatayat bus manufactured by Ashok Leyland. I am going to express my genuine feelings about the experience. I boarded the bus from Baneshwor and got off at Tripureshwor. I know that Kanak Mani Dixit is a visionary person. I also know that cycles and big buses instead of private two and four-wheelers are very important for greener tomorrow. But, this does not fit quite right here, especially in the context of Kathmandu. Getting back to that new bus ride, I have to admit it was not extraordinary. In fact, it was less ordinary than I had previously thought. The seat arrangement uses a smart technique of reducing the seat size and letting as much space as possible open for people to stand in. For a crowded city like Kathmandu, it is a really appropriate concept. But, this doesn’t end here. The seats were too small for a person of my size. And, for clarification, I am a teenager of very average size. Furthermore, the seats had absolutely no cu...
