More than what different disciplines are taught in, my more immediate concern has always beeen with unnecessary mixing of languages which I see as the death knell of Telugu, when I see people unable to form a single sentence in speech without English mixed in that tells me a lot about the state of the language and it's not like you need English either, I used to be like that until a few months ago but once I started I can now manage 85-90% in pure Telugu and only use English terms when it's unavoidable or if the Telugu term is no longer understood by the common people. I see people who aren't even able to retain basic vocabulary for mother and father, it's a sad state of affairs when that happens.
