IT IS A STATE ! BUT NOT A STATE !!

Posted by Manas in Writing | 1:40pm


Upto SSC, I studied in telugu medium, and I took MPC branch in  inter-mediate.  There is english medium only. I thougt, "O.K. we can learn english slowly....." and joined the college.  But I faced many problems  and confusions with that medium change.......one of them is below...........

     While our physics and chemistry lecturers were saying lessons, some times they said the following sentence, "The particle moves from one state to another state.........".  When they were saying so, I confused !!!.  I thought, "How can I particle move from one state to another state??".  I thought this state is a state like states in our country.  But later I found the another meaning of state.  The state in that sentence is the state of a particular material, liquid state, solid state, gas state etc.,  Until, I found that meainng of  state in english - telugu dictionary, I was in confusion.......That was the confusion I faced in my Junior college.....So ITS A STATE NOT A STATE !! :-)   Have you ever faced such problem in your college life with the words with more than one meaning???????
