Guys,

I am pretty sure some of you may have already been in this situation. My parents are coming for a short visit to US this summer. But, the problem is they don't speak/understand english. How does it work when they need help like in transits ?

Hoping for your valuable suggestions and I appreciate your answers..

Thanks,
GOOD JOB

Daky,

You have a brilliant idea; hope you will implement it in your life someday even if others do not follow it.

Gogl,
They finally made it. I asked them to take Flight from Delhi since they were able to understand hindi. And, I informed air india by calling their 1-800 number and giving their flight details. They helped them by guiding them to the connecting flight. I had also made small papers which hadll commonly used english sentences and on the back of which I had translated that onto Nepali so that whenever they need to ask anything they can show that small paper to them and they can look at the back of the paper to clarify themselves (in nepali).

Thanks for your suggestions.

good job GOODJOB. Thank you for your suggestion... we are planning to use "meet-and-assist" and the idea you wrote in your last post... writing common english questions on one side and nepali translation on the other... thank you very much.

Thanks GoodJob.,

Remember, you can always do things in a practical manner.

You could have saved thousands of dollors, and time, if you just have listened to me.

Anyways, you have fun now.
