She picked up some flowers from school ground and we gathered around her. 

She picked up daisy and said, this is “Hirva Mungya” in Konkani. We tried to say it but failed and started laughing. I don’t know all the names she said but there were 8 or 10 flowers. And one of them was marigold  “Sundar Peth” and we had fun saying that too. After all the flower names we shared one by one which name we liked best. It was my first time when I heard this type of (कोंकणींत अद्वितीय फुलांचीं नांवां) unique flowers names in Konkani. It was really fun time for me in school.
