Yeah, it is kind of cool to note the regional differences. Thanks to Islamica, I feel comfortable communicating with Memons everywhere.

The word is "mukhe." Whenever you say "mkay" it reminds me of mr mackay from south park, mmkay.

the better word for our language is memoni. cuz kutchi is spoken by some non memons too.

memoni is the word that karachi memons use to refer to our language. so that all the non memons know it refers to actual memons speaking the language..not like ismailis or whatever..

did you know the first migration leader for this memon group/tribe was named adam? talk about cool.
