Try to type your favourite dish on your keyboard using only your elbows. The person to figure out the previous dish, must adequately type the right answer in their post and using their elbows type their favourite dish for the next person to guess. Have fun! (I'll evidently start off with my favourite dish).

That's correct. Although, I am under the impression that it's spelled "raj-ma cha-wal". No? Anywho, your turn commando.

In Hindi, "z"s often get pronounced like "j"s (hence the provincial, "jeero") :idea: . If "raazma" is taken from Urdu (and I'm not sure that it is), it's probably a "z." Another sound not had by the language is "f"; so, "fikar" becomes "phikar" (which actually looks the same to a someone who speaks just English...).

I'll try my hand at an entry in the "game" later -- :D .
