About The Book: In this book, the "Anglo-Indian Dictionary" serves as a valuable resource for understanding the linguistic nuances of English usage in the context of interactions with India. While the term "Anglo-Indian" may have various connotations, the dictionary focuses on words and phrases that have emerged from the cultural exchange between English and Indian communities. It includes terms of Indian origin, as well as those with specific meanings in the Indian context, supplementing the English lexicon with Indian-specific vocabulary. By providing explanations and definitions for these terms, the dictionary facilitates communication and comprehension in diverse settings, catering to the needs of English speakers engaging with Indian culture, society, and language.
