ASIF CURRIMBHOY’S USE OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE Adapting language to suit situation and character in a play is a peculiar problem that the Indian dramatist in English invariably faces. And this problem could be tackled successfully if the dramatist adapts the English language to reflect the idiom of the language of the characters or, as K.R.
