Confusion

I am confused.....I do not know the equivalent word for 'Confusion' in Hindi? Nor do I know the equivalent word for it in Malayalam or Tamil. Called my dad and asked he too could not think of any word exactly equivalent... then asked my Telgu friends if they knew the telgu word... they too did not know... asked some tamil friends, they too did not know.

Recollected those Hindi dialogues where Amitabh says 'Mere dictionary mein nahin hein' . My mentality says that if I do not know/understand something thing, then it does not exist. So, may be there is not word called 'confusion' in any Indian language at all.... or is it that people are slowly forgetting their mother-tongue??? I was talking to my friend earlier on how we no longer say 'I Love you' in our mother-tongue. Same with 'I hate you'. Using such lines in our mother-tongue will make us feel out of place - 'Where are you from? What language are you talking? Is that pure Malayalam? Are you being poetic? '

I am really confused!!!
