Feel like we don’t call each other by nickname

“बॉम्बे डक” एक बतख नहीं है। यह मुंबई, भारत के पास पानी में पकड़ी गई मछली है।

Recently, I feel like we don’t call each other by nickname. It is the mainstream to call each other safely by name. I wonder if our presence has faded so much. Did we lose our personality? Are we becoming invisible?

In the first place, walking in the city, we don’t know the name of the person approaching from the front. Of course, no one knows your name.
In that regard, nicknames are interesting. It expresses the attributes, personalities, and positions of people.
What should I do to avoid becoming a transparent person? Do you attach a nameplate? Do you have a uniform number? Is it effective to do so?

A long time ago, in a local area, some children had an accident

Side holes were dug in the slopes of the open space, where the soil collapsed while they were playing. The side hole seems to have been there for a long time.

It was a residential area near it, but it was not closed, despite the dangerous ditch

The time was unknown, but it was a playground for children.
I am a nature that never forgets what I care about. I am still worried about the news.
Even if we are settled in a certain area, we do not know the situation around our home unexpectedly because we go away every day for commuting or going to school. Life is made up of dots and lines, which are not planes. So, I don’t know the name of each scene I always see. If you don’t associate with your neighbor, you’ll be more careless.

June in western India is dark and sultry due to the monsoon. June is when Bombay Duck appears on the dining table of Persian families. This is a monsoon specialty.
“Bombay Duck” is not a duck. It is a fish caught in the waters near Mumbai, India. It is ugly, has a bad smell, is slimy, pink, and has chins. And that name is a mystery.

An accident occurred in a town. People were submerged in the pond. A subsequent investigation did not reveal the name of the pond. People in the vicinity knew there was a pond, but no one knows the name. Even people who have lived in the local area for decades did not know the name of the pond they always saw. What is this thing?
Because adults travel back and forth between home and work every day, they probably didn’t know much about their homes or their children’s playgrounds. People who lived nearby for a long time did not seem to know the dangerous places.

When exchanging information, everything should necessarily have nouns and pronouns. There is no value discussion just by “that” and “it”. Farmers have given climates various names, and fishermen have given clouds various names.
Conversely, occupations that do not depend on the weather do not give detailed names to natural phenomena.

Yes, the connection between Persians and Bombay Duck?

Indian Persians are Zoroastrians from Iran in the 8th century

It flourished during the colonial era of the 19th century. Persians embraced Western culture under British influence and entered society. They donated their commercial and trade interests to poor schools and hospitals. Persian cuisine has absorbed that of India.

Then, in the 19th century, a second Zoroastrian immigrant came to Bombay

These leading entrepreneurs ran traditional Iranian eateries and served the people equally.
Fish were deeply involved in Persian culture because the Persian settlement was on the coast of Gujarat. There is Bombay Duck among various fish.

Look to humans. We are calling each other by name. If you stand in a less important position in your relationships, fewer people will know your name. Even if you are anonymous, your surroundings may not be particularly troublesome. I’m a little sad.
Conversely, there is no need for a name for something that has no meaning or value.

In India, Bombay Duck is historically and culturally loved. For hundreds of years, Koli fishermen have skewered Bombay duck and sprinkled salt on dried bamboo shelves. Dried fish smells less. The British believed that the smell was harmful but eventually preferred it. The dried fish that can be eaten during the monsoon season is used for curry and fried foods and goes well with rice. Koli people eat raw.
Bombay duck is also preferred in eastern India. People add vinegar to it, bake it or fry it. Marathi people fry it.
Obviously, Bombay Duck is not only belonging to the Persians but is symbolic of Persian culture. It is included in Persian dining tables, songs, books, and even names.
The name may relate to Marathi, which the Englishman cannot pronounce. Another prevailing theory is that it comes from the word “Dak” (letter) in Bombay.
