Sinhala and International Mother Language Day

International Mother Language Day, observed annually on 21 February, celebrates linguistic and cultural diversity while promoting the preservation and promotion of mother tongues worldwide. This day, proclaimed by UNESCO in 1999 and commemorated since 2000, serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made to protect native languages, notably the Bengali language movement in Bangladesh on 21 February 1952.

The significance of International Mother Language Day lies in its recognition of the importance of linguistic diversity and multilingualism. It honors those who fought for their mother tongues, highlighting the Bengali movement's impact on Sri Lanka's political landscape.

The introduction of the Sinhala Only Act (Official Language Act No. 33 of 1956) on 5 June 1956 replaced English with Sinhala as Sri Lanka's sole official language. Spearheaded by Prime Minister S.W.R.D. Bandaranaike, this policy aimed to promote Sinhala and assert Sinhala cultural dominance. However, it marginalized the Tamil-speaking minority, contributing to ethnic tensions and the Sri Lankan Civil War.

While globalization challenges narrow socio-political attitudes like "Sinhala only," it does not diminish the imperative to preserve mother tongues. UNESCO's list of endangered languages underscores the importance of safeguarding linguistic diversity, including Sinhala.

Sinhala, spoken by approximately 16 million worldwide, holds deep cultural and historical significance. Its evolution, influenced by various factors, has yielded a rich literary tradition. The Sinhala script, comprising 58 basic letters, represents consonant-vowel combinations, with additional diacritics altering pronunciation.

Education in one's mother tongue, such as Sinhala, fosters effective learning and cultural preservation. Language also plays a pivotal role in communication, identity formation, and access to opportunities. Promoting multilingualism and linguistic tolerance enhances cultural exchange and mutual understanding.

Efforts to save Sinhala require collective action, including language education, bilingualism promotion, cultural festivals, media support, community engagement, and digital initiatives. Advocacy for language rights and documentation of linguistic heritage are essential steps toward preserving Sinhala for future generations.

By embracing these strategies, individuals and communities can ensure the vitality and relevance of the Sinhala language in Sri Lanka and beyond.

THOUGHTS FROM THE PAST- THE SATANIC VERSES

 Chandra Khanduri (Guest Writer) The Satanic Verses create controversy In the 1980s if the clerics were on their mission in Pakistan, it was their Shiite brethren in Tehran who were defending their interpretation of Islam in a bigger way. The fuse this time got ignited by the Iranian clerics who were campaigning for ‘banning and burning’ Salman Rushdie’s book The Satanic Verses. The book, a fictional work of satire, alludes indirectly to Prophet Mohammed.

  They put a price – a fatwa- on Rushdie’s head and made him go into hiding. In India in a bid to win Muslims, the Rajiv Gandhi government at the Centre had banned the book - the way Nehru had banned Aubrey Menon’s ‘Rama Retold’. Rushdie pleaded to RG as he wrote in an open letter, “Mr. Gandhi, it looks as if your government becomes unable or unwilling to resist pressure from more or less an extremist religious grouping that now controls the political agenda in India…the real issue is Muslim vote”. Nevertheless, the ban remained even after RG demitted his offices.

  The reality is that no holy war has got fought for God. Instead and sadly, they have been political wars- wars for power and hegemony, for resources, for colonies and kingdoms, or for purely controversial and outright evil ideas, such as those of Hitler. Centuries of religious obfuscation have indeed disabled us. I managed to get a copy of The Satanic Verses through a lawyer friend and found it worth all adjectives- hilarious, populous, and even loquacious, garrulous. Yet, it prompted me to read the Holy Quran for the second time and see if had Prophet Mohammed, that great visionary and reformer, read the book, would he not have burst laughing at the phantasmagoria narratives, presumably at him and angel Gabriel-all in humor.

Open discussion of such thoughts, and the diehard, albeit ignorant would have a fatwa on my head too. So, they remained just that. Thoughts in my mind. Terrorism was then an Asian pastime, not sparing women of substances too. Sirimavo Bandaranaike and Master Tara Singh’s daughter had recently become targets. Sirimavo got saved, but Rajinder Kaur got the bullet.

 Meanwhile, the book’s sales kept rising, making it an international bestseller.

  (Ah yes! On August 14/15, 2022, a Muslim fanatic tried to kill Rushdie in a suburb of New York, but Salman survived by the grace of Allah. In the meantime, the book has again become a bestseller following the attack.)

The Bus

I land bleary-eyed at Bandaranaike International Airport after almost 24 hours of travel. The local time is 5:30 AM.

Immediately, my senses are confronted with a milieu of humidity, incense, and something typically invisible that one usually associates with this part of the world. It is a frenetic energy compressed with the sense that time also stands still.

Except right now, it is very clear that I’m standing at the intersection of two opposing forces. Around me, a screaming shack of tuk-tuk drivers offers a trip into Colombo proper. Our bundle of recent arrivers divides into two camps: those who either fall under their spell and tumble into the back of what amounts to a glorified golf cart, or others who have pre-arranged pickups and let their drivers take them away from the chaos.

And then there’s me.

On a quest to find the mythical 30-minute express bus I’ve heard about, I leave the last remnants of my safety bubble that popped the second I got off the plane, and waddle down the sidewalk towards…I’m not sure exactly.

A quick chat with a friendly police officer with a rifle in full regalia reveals the bus to Colombo is “that way” (finger point).

Righto.

I keep walking. Streets pass, temperatures rise, and it’s only getting louder. Road vehicles beep to the tune of “Oh When The Saints Go Marching In”. With my day-old travel clothes and two backpacks, I stick out like a sore thumb. There isn’t another foreigner in sight. I’m starting to regret this decision.

With increasing desperation, I ask every third local I walk past for “Bus? Colombo?” with each one saying the same thing: “That way”. One woman helpfully tells me, “100 metres more”, which quickly turns into 500 metres and then some.

I walk for at least 25 minutes into the suburbs of Negombo. A wave of panic that I, unfortunately, recognise all too well starts to take over until, lo and behold, a dilapidated station that has seen better days comes into view.

Well done, you. The first hurdle is overcome.

Now, which of the 50 buses parked here is going in my direction?

After a quick congress with the loitering group of drivers waiting for their shifts to begin, I get put on a bus positioned to leave the lot. When precisely that might be is anyone’s guess, as I never got a response to the “Express?” part of my initial query, but I’m too tired to make a run for it. Plus, I’ve got no Plan B.

To my surprise, my driver gets on soon after that and starts descending the congested main road. Along the way, a wingman-esque conductor shouts the route out the door in Sinhalese and collects other passengers. My segment costs 300 LKR and I hand over a 500 bill.

I rapidly realise that I am not, in fact, on the express bus from the airport to town. Somehow, I have found myself on a normal bus for normal people because they’re normal (bonus points, dear reader, if you spot the reference). Forty Sri Lankans and I are participants in this party. As each new person gets on, they shoot a curious look at the pale, nervous-looking tourist sitting in the first row.

Two hours later, the conductor gestures that it’s my stop. Against the odds, I have made it to my final destination for the day. The journey there is not at all what I expected. But it is the wake-up call I need that this trip will be anything but ordinary.

I never did get change for my fare in the end.
