Seems a daft idea to me. If English is your first language and you want to communicate with Hindi speakers, learn Hindi. And vice versa. To deliberately muddle the two languages doesn't help anyone.

It will probably go the same way as Esperanto.
As it's so widely used in the Business World it makes sense for the future of whatever careers these students choose.
I may have a use for this, trying to sort out what the thieving article who phones me most mornings is saying.

Bloody nonsensical.
Only in Portsmouth!!

For a minute I thought it might have been Portsmouth Uni but it is just a sixth form collage. Can you actually take Hinglish as a proper subject or something?
Seems it's simply a follow on to 'Company Raj'.

But can you take it as a proper subject like you can French or German?
I've worked in banks and life companies most of my life and I've never heard of it. I met a lot of Indians and normally their English is excellent, they tend to talk to each other in English when they have different Indian Languages.
Heaven forbid the British should learn a foreign language. Just shout at them louder.
WHAT????
I don't know Cassa.
//widely spoken in the business community.//

Which business community? Certainly not the international business community. I've never heard of it. Yes, it is just pandering. While they're learning this they might as well be learning English - which really is widely spoken in the business community.
Question Author
does seem like pandering to be honest, don't know why it's necessary
Pandering? Aye in the same way as learning Klingon is pandering to Klingons
Bit of a red herring there steg since we all know that Klingons have no business sector, relying instead on the Ferengi for matters transactional.

Then there's the universal translator. :-)
Aye, Quark, strangeness and charm
Ridiculous. Either learn a language, or don't. If one wishes to adopt the odd foreign word into your own language then that's a different matter. Umpteen erroneous versions of an established language (all pretending to be legitimate variants) is unhelpful; it merely devalues the original.
I am sure there are many classes that 'we' don't need, but this one will probably be of more use to those in it than most.
I don't see how this affects anyone other than the students taking this course.What's the problem?
//What's the problem?//

Are you new on here, Danny?
India has no end of languages which is why English is used by so many. Similarly to TTT I have spent 30 years in Banking with much of it working with Indians bother here and in India. They pretty much all speak impeccable English. Apparently many schools teach the classes in English.

But, if you are to learn another language then why not learn actual Hindi?
