Germany, Inter Nationes, International Institutes, dignitaries of various embassies and
newspapers

1. Dear Mr. Kapoor,

Thank you very much for your letter of June 19, 2003 and the enclosed copy of publication "Ajanta
German in two Months". This book is - with no doubts - a very worthy initiative in promoting not only
the German language among Indian students but also the traditionally close ties between India and
Germany.
With best wishes,
June 24, 2003 Hans-Joachim Kiderlen
The Charge D'Affaires a.i.
Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany
Chanakyapuri, New Delhi.

2. Dear Mr. Kapoor,

We are in receipt of the latest edition of your book entitled "Ajanta German in Two Months".
I looked it through thoroughly and appreciate the great effort you have invested into it. Particularly the
second part of the book seems to me helpful for those, who wish to basically get acquainted with the
German language within a very short time.. .............................................................
Sincerely
08-07-2003 Dr. Manfried Wüst
German Cultural Centre, Max Mueller Bhavan, Pune.

3. Thank you for sending us the book 'Ajanta Italian in two months'. The book has been added to the
reference collection of our library. Your efforts to promote Italian language are appreciated. With best
wishes,

Sincerely
04-12-2002 Dr. Mrs. Leonilde Callocchia
Acting Director
Italian Embassy Cultural Centre, New Delhi.

N.B : There are two words for Saturday. Samstag is used in most of Germany, in Austria and in German
Switzerland. Sonnabend ("Sunday eve") is used in eastern Germany and roughly north of the city of Münster in
northern Germany. So, in Hamburg, Rostock, Leipzig or Berlin, it's Sonnabend; in Cologne, Frankfurt, Munich
or Vienna "Saturday" is Samstag. Both words for "Saturday" are understood all over the German-speaking
world, but the readers of this German book should use the one most common in the region they are living.
