Aizawl, Aug 17: Contrary to media reports, Zioni Renthlei today strongly denied that she figured in the nude picture. Talking to Newslink from USA over phone today, the singer said, “Khatiang thlalak ka neih ka hre lo (I don’t have such photograph).”

This is a two days old news, by the way. Many are now curious to know how is the singer. Here are some music videos:

Say when you’re alone
It’s better ’cause nobody knows you
When no one’s your friend
It’s better ’cause nobody leaves you
So you turned your back
On a world that you could never have
‘Cause your heart’s been cracked
And everyone else’s is goin’ mad

And I know you believe that you and me don’t belong here
And the worst we could do
Is keep trying to pretend we care

According to Wikipedia, “originally a Hindi word meaning ‘closed’, is a form of protest used by political activists in some countries in South Asia like India and Nepal.” Chuvangin a vai tawng ang taka “Bandh” with an “a” (as in a, aw, b…), tia lam rik mai hi a dik ber.

Sure – Mi tam takin “swer”, ti in emaw “suar” ti in kan lam ri thin. A nuihzathlak lek lek thin hei hi chu. “Shore” tia lam rik tur a ni. And let’s keep in mind the “sh”.

Eg: colle(J), messa(j). “Village” phei hi chu “g” lam rik mai bakah, “a” lai tak khi “i” tia lam rik tur a ni daih thung. Eg: “Vill(i)j”. (mahse “coll(i)j” chu tih awih loh ). (“message” pawh hi kan lam thiam thlawt lo anih chuan SMS tih mai tur, LOL.)

Maryland – Hei hi “Mary(lind)” tia lam rik hian a dik ber. “Mary(land)” tih hi a dik lem lo. American ho tak phei hi chuan “y” pawh hi an lam ri mang lo. Mahse chu chu “accent” lam daih ania. Tuna kan buaipui hi chu pronunciation hrim hrim anih kha.
