Someone asks if "Shuddha Hindi is possible and / What is it that constitutes "shuddhataa" if this notion is at all possible and if "English and foreign words" do intrude into a language, what quantifiable level would this unwelcome presence need to reach when the said language is no longer "shuddh"? /
I think you would be knowing some other languages apart from Hindi. Can you "quantify" at what level those languages can be called "pure"? Then why target only Hindi to attempt and ask for such quantification?
IMO, such "quantification" is impossible for any language. It is something which one would understand about his own native languages.
But for practical purposes, try to hear (1) Amitabh Bachchan speak Hindi. And some more names:
(1) Arun Jaitley
(2) Lal Krishna Advani
Of much I have heard them on TV, I have thought their Hindi are pure Hindi.
