I think we should start a separate thread for practicing Dakhni. I hope we can send a message that it is absolutely honourable to speak Dakhni. Bengalis are not ashamed to speak Bengali, Kannadigans are not ashamed of talking in Kannada, Brits are not ashamed of using English then why should anybody feel awkward while conversing in Dakhni?

I have many Hyderabadi friends (it seems 90% of Indian Muslims in US are from there), and I have yet to meet one who feels awkward while speaking in Urdu. I am from UP and we (incl others who are from North) have quite a fun time with our Hyderabadi brothers. There is no malice, albeit we do have a huge laugh at how they say Qaf and Kaf etc.
