Lingua Franca of India version America 2.0

Lingua franca of Urban India is changing (and already changed much). Now a days, if you happen to fix your hearing senses over some college going guys n gals, you can easily notice the blatant use of words used in western countries like "don't piss me off", "f**k off", "take your f*****g ass away from here", "shit" or "bullshit" etc etc etc.
what problem can i have over their use ? absolutely none. But what i am worried about is that there is lot of hue and cry over our Hindi being dying out. And the hindi lovers (mainly govt.) are trying hard to translate every word of English into Hindi. What if these words are translated and spoken off in Hindi ? Now, if somebody speaks these words in hindi in public, then all those who are simply blurting out these words would pass a smirk and slid away as something sick, dangerous transmitable language has been used in their lofty presence. There comes the army of Prince Charles.

I won't write much now but would end this piece by saying that obscenity, in any language, remains obscene only.
