That's very true. I'm from the North eastern, and I got influenced by Hollywood movies at a very young age and my accent got polished and different throughout the years.
Agree What is indian accents particularly. The accents differ with regions in India U may find some so called high class accents but the way by which u could pronounce word more clearly and easy are the best one for u If u go in deep then u would know the diction thing Even in my school , I was taught that english is not hindi which u can prounounce same as alphabets . One has to follow the diction recird behind it Even these are deliberately cleared in Oxford English Hindi dictionary. Many indians prounounce many words incorrectly acc to it By the way english doesn't has -ar sound Water can't prounounce like she prounounced We can promote wrong things by just taking pride over that it's indian accents
Indian languages have more and accurate sounds than English and that's the reason you feel Indian accent different. In our languages, we write what we speak. We don't do silent things 😂.
101% true, for example they pronounce "tell" as "thel " and we pronounce "tell" as "tell" our barakhadi gives us proper pronunciation. They use ट as ठ.
The problem with us is we dont want to accept that our accent sucks..... The correct way of language is how the natives speak..... If english person speaks hindi it sounds wierd same with indians speaking english.....
@@navdeeprahiya9159 well. I always accept because I know I will always make sound Indian which is nothing to shame. Language is language. I have talked to so many people outside of the country. Only very few don't like ( mostly UK people ) but rest don't face any issue. American easily accept accents because in their country they have a lot of people form different part of world so they are accustomed of it.
@@devphotography1238 No, not even americans like our accent...... The basic thing is i know many indians who believe indian accent is the best which is understood by everyone, which is not the case... I'm just saying it. We don't have to copy others or anything but never assume indian accent is the best. You must have like hindi, sanskrit such languages are more phonetic, so indian thinks that we are pronouncing every word correct which is not the case.

Indians have a kind of bold and hard pronunciations especially with A because of 'आ' And also it depends on region whether it's south or north or east or west or north - east Accent of every single person is unique in India. Our accents is different because of hindi alphabet influences.
India has a vast amount of languages, you will find a different language every 30 km. So indian english accent will also differ from one region to another depending on their mother tongue.
@@ruhiraj2935 actually south Indians english accent sounds a little different TBH. Speaking of which you cannot neglect a part of India just for the fact that majority of Indian people talk in that way. India is so diverse bro

Ofcourse she's talking in indian accent but then when he says her to say a certain word or sentence it's easier to compare which u can't pick up in normal conversation ☺️
The video was fun but just wanted to highlight, there is no generalized Indian English accent. The accent changes across India based on their region of origin and regional languages they speak. We all don't sound the same 🙏
@@wheeloftime2908 I think you are being too harsh. More often than not it's because not everyone outside of India is that well aware of these differences. We can just bring them to light. But labelling them for this, is not something we as Indians stand for 🙏🙏🙏💜💜💜

“Ta”and “Tha” are two different sounds in many indian languages and are represented as different characters. There is no “Ta” sound in west. It’s difficult to describe in English as there are no alphabets or combination of alphabets to describe the spoken form correctly
The English (British, American) 'T' sound is not present in any Indian languages. Don't confuse western English 'T' sound with Indian 'थ'. Both are pronounced slightly different.
@@Saurabh.P they add “h” after “T“ sound and after “k” sound. It’s like “thaik” instead of indian “take” or “khaik” instead of indian “cake” sound. It’s just difficult to describe sounds in written form

india is technically more like an European union so india has different kind of accents according to the states for example south indian when they pronounce thirty(th) little different than the north indians and northeastern people will have more like Burmese accent it can be more close to east asian accent than to mainland indian accents So indian subcontinent have huge diversity but technically Africa continent has the most diversity in the world
@@wilsons2882 media is just showing what is on the ground ,Bharat is not a country of immigrants like US, it has its own culture which is native to this land and it's own indic identity .
the truth is we Indians read as it is written without gaping or missing any alphabets we just have much clearer vocabulary since in Hindi there is a specific pronunciation for certain words and there is no mixing of pronunciation and alphabets.
WTF does that even mean? Native speakers get to decide how their own language is spoken. Your way of speaking only seems natural to you because you were born with that accent, to others, your accent would not sound that way.
@@周瀚鑫-f7n No. becouse sometimes the script gives idea how a language used to be spoken or how it should be many times difference arises due to consecutively fading of certain syllabus in ths speach becouse language is constantly evolving. Many English words are from an ancient Indian language Sanskrit. I don't think anyone country has a right to say that this is the correct way to pronounce any language as many countries influence each other and adapt languages and each of them have own correct versions.
@@miss_purple5090 I agree with you. I am not Indian. I am from Bangladesh. We also have variations of same alphabet as Piyuchino said at 2:21. We Bangladeshis also read/speak English as it is written in the script.
Here it is, her accent is like a proper Indian accent but where I learned my first alphabets and got primary education, people use to have an accent that was almost identical to the British one. So the way she is speaking and the way I speak is totally different. I have a accent closer to British one 😉 For example: She pronounces the, letter R if present in last and I ignore it like the British one. Well that makes me different 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️

Yup. Piyusha is marathi & a lot of us marathi people speak English that way. Even my own professors speak that way Imao (they're even clearer than her)
I think that depends. I and my friends have never pronounced the 'r' in 'work'. Many Indians are non rhotic especially if they studied in English medium schools. Basically Indian English is too diverse to generalise.
@@baghyasrib6929 it is true that indian english is diverse... I was bought up in mumbai n likewise even i wouldn't stress on r.....but then this is just restricted to city residents...i mean in mumbai itself i have seen people struggle with english let alone the pronunciation of it....what you r talking abt is just 5 or 10% of population of india....rest all talk the way she did...when 90% of the population speak in a specific manner its hard to not generalize... 🤷
Yeah, india is diverse as well as its languages and accents. I am from the northeast india and speak Assamese and deuri as well as basic Hindi. And I have heard a pretty much different accent of English. Since I speak a different language than her, I can point out the difference such as three and try, we don't pronounce it the same.
well NE indian use lang which is sino -tibeto so the english is kinda similar to East asian and mix of the local lang accent .While some NE indians are pretty good at american accent too
They expect you to speak in Hollyweird's stereotypical accent of Indian people which is true in many regions but when you ONLY expect people to have a particular accent what you consider as an 'Indian accent', then this is where you should consider checking your deeply embedded biased assumptions & plain ignorant generalisation of Indian people. This Korean guy was giving me sort of same ignorant vibe and her Kpop Internet-cult conditioned mind was desperately waiting for it!
The devnagri language writing system used in many Indian languages has different alphabet based on various sounds maybe that's why most knew our words have clear pronunciations
In India we have more than thousands languages and 22 official languages,so every Indian accent is different. I want you to compare South Indian English accent to North Indian English accent it will be fun to see diversity.
To be honest, I think each individual in India has their own accent that they pick up depending on their mother tongue and the kind of english accents they get exposed to. So it doesn't just differ from state to state but also from individual to individual~
2:05 No we don't usually say the R but it just comes at times😂 2:25 it is there in malayalam 3:04 we don't usually say butteR necessarily, we say butt'eh' but British people say butt'ah' Wait... I'm not being rude... I think south Indians have a different accent...? cuz i don't stress on the R like she does most of the times... like for example... 'Learn', 'tire', 'thermal' - we don't say leaRRn, we say lea'eh'n, tieh, thehmal. Idk your name, but yeah, I think every state has a different accent especially south Indians cuz a malayalam speaking person's accent is way different from a kannada speaking person etc... every state has a different accent.
I think the letter 'റ്റ' in the Malayalam script, which can also be written as 'ററ', representing the ligature 'tta' is somewhat similar to the British pronunciation of 't'.
Well in tamil ,the combination of a constonant rr(ற்) and a vowel with rr (ற) in a formal aka medivial and ancient tamil. We usually mention this combination as (tr )in english. For eg:we say katr-uh meaning is wind that tr sound combination sounds more like a english "t". However in modern tamil pronouncuation that tr is replaced by th(த). Note that that rra is more sound like retroflex rra like in Russian not soft rolling ra in Spanish.
@@randomdude4258 In Tamil also, ற்ற is "British English TTA" and ன்ற is "British English NDA" only. Srilankan Tamils, Kanyakumari & some Thoothukudi Tamils, (elite educated) Thondaimandalam Tamils still retain this pronunciation. Even in Madurai slang, in some words you can see this like "Kondepoduven= i will kill you", ""Kandu kutti =calf". Here, it's just "Alveolar nda" got changed into "Retroflex nda", a dialectical variation. Recent mispronunciation of "ற்ற (Alveolar tta)" as "ட்ற(Retroflex tra)" and "ன்ற(Alveolar nda)" as "ண்ட்ற(Retroflex ndra)" is all due to the fact that (a section of/ regional) Tamil spoken in cinemas influenced the entire Tamilnadu to think and mispronounce these two clusters. Sad truth is even the people who correctly pronounce them are diminishing due to visual media and cinema influence. Just like how we write "Zha" for ழ , we write "tra" and "ndra" for "ற்ற" & "ன்ற". So what we write dosent matter here. It's just a convention to transliterate in English. But the current generation people are learning the pronunciation from English. That is also a reason for mispronounciation. This convention of writing "காற்று=katru" is used to avoid the confusion when writting காட்டு (kattu) காற்று (Kattu). Because there's no Retroflex sound in English.
@@randomdude4258 ற is not at all Retroflex. It's Alveolar trill. If you know Tamil well you can easily figure that out. Because Tamil grammar is designed in such a way so. ல changes into ன and ற due to புணர்ச்சி (sandhi) which means they share a common place of articulation. They are all Alveolar. Similarly, ள changes into ண and ட due to புணர்ச்சி (sandhi) which means they share a common place of articulation. They are all Retroflex.
@@santhoshrider7348 whatever retroflex or Alveolar trill I don't know that abt linguistics however what u said is my point that rr sound in tamil sounds similar to english etc.. I jus share my point of hearing
Let's appreciate Piyusha for not having that inferiority complex that we most Indians have 👏 She's very clear about our alphabets and their pronounciation (which is ofcourse more detailed than English)
Philippines and India almost have the same pronunciation. We make it simplier. The difference is that they are more speedy in talking. Hehe. Sometimes we do need subtitles when we’re watching movies with british accent.
I can figure out if he's Telugu Kannada Tamil or Malayali just by listening his English. I may even say which district he's from Karnataka as well by listening to his English. That's how English accent varies from person to person.
From Mumbai! Yay! Yes agree to what she says😝 I could see she tried her best to do the Indian accent haha.. cuz when she spoke in the end that's the city accent..
This actually demonstrated quite nicely, the actual characteristics of Indian English accent. It showed some of the common distinctive features of Indian accent. ________ The Indian English is primarily based on British English as British vocabulary, spellings and pronounciation rules were taught in schools predominantly. However, due to pop culture, TV shows, movies, American pronounciations and vocabulary has also creeped into Indian English making it a mixture of both, with additional influence from the mother tongue of the speaker. I would like to chart out as much as I can about Indian English accent in a broad manner: Common distinctive features of Indian accent -Like the simplification of sounds while pronouncing a word (to the extent where the meaning is conveyed and the word is distinct enough and it's uniqueness is not lost). Like simplifying unnecessary cosmetic features of foreign accent like dipthongs on case of simpler words. Example: "care" that's pronounced /kheia/ or /kheir/ in UK or US is pronounced as /ke-r/ (Replacing complicated dipthong /ei/ with simpler equivalent /e-/ and pronouncing the consonant sound /k/ cleaner and simpler without any stress or intonation). However, we retain the dipthong in the words where, that specific dipthong is required in that word, for it to be equivalent to the other pronounciations and simplifying it might make it sound totally like a different word, in which case, the dipthong is pronounced. Example: the word "pair" is pronounced as /pair/ and the dipthong /ai/ is retained as if it is simplified, it becomes a totally different sounding word like "pare" which is pronounced in India as "pe-r". This selective simplification of dipthongs Indian English actually eliminates many homophones, by alloting them distinctive pronounciation (yet familiar enough to a foreign English speaker, without alienating them). ----------------------------------------- --> the main reason for this, can be understood by the following exercise: As almost all the English words can be transliterated in respective Indian languages, and the in the process, when the transliterated English words in Indian languages are pronounced by an Indian native speaker (without making those words ambiguous or homophones), Naturally it simplifies the complicated sounds wherever they are unnecessary, and to convey the actual word distinctively. *If that specific sound is not present in the particular local language, then equivalent sound from that language is used often or even the exact sound from the British/American accent will be used. And the different dialects of Indian English arise from this similar transliteration process from respective languages and the nuances of pronounciation in those specific languages and pronounciation rules of those languages dictate the way in which those English words will be pronounced by that particular speaker having that particular regional language as their mother tongue, giving rise to different dialects of Indian English all across the states and the country. Since even local languages also have their own dialects in those respective states that is varying from region to region, based on the background of those people i.e., demographics and education, that additionally adds more complexity to the nuanced Variations of Indian accent everywhere in India. Also, it is common in many indian languages to pronounce every syllable of the words (when written) distinctively in pure form without any accent (of course following that specific pronounciation rules and intonations of that language). The Indian languages are syllable based where vowels are the base of the sounds and they are pronounced by themselves or when attached to the consonants (simple or mixed). Importance is given to the simplest syllable sound itself (in the written form of the sounds in those languages), but not the random pronounciation rules like in English where spelling and pronunciation can be miles apart sometimes. Hence transliterating English words, retaining their unique sound to the equivalent simpler version of those sounds is what is the fundamental make up of the pronounciation in Indian accent. Best way to understand Indian accent pronounciation is: It's very simple, as we'll just be pronouncing syllable by syllable in local language when written in its script, without any crazy arbitrary rules like in English, while speaking Indian Accent of English. ________________________ Coming back to the examples: Even in case of 'r' sound, we don't pronounce the "wr" sound as pronounced in many foreign English speakers, and keep it simple 'r' sound but clearer by rolling the 'r' sound twice may be (which is not so simple to the extent of the soft 'r' sound (without rolling it) as a Japanese person speaks, which might be misheard as /l/ or /r/ by different people). This type of usage of 'r' sound is also attributed to characteristics of that specific Indian language. Also, in some Indian languages, there are 2 types of "r" sounds, (twice rolling the 'r' and other with rolling the 'r' multiple times). Anyway the second type of "r" is not common and almost never used while speaking Indian accent of English. -- ------------------------------------------------ ----------------------------------------- GENERAL SOUNDS PRESENT IN INDIAN LANGUAGES: There are 2 or 3 types of 'l' sounds in some Indian languages as well. 1. Normal version As in "like" 2. With tongue rolled and touched to the back portion of the palate and pronounced. 3. Pull the tongue backwards, curl it forward and release air while curling it backwards. This is transcribed as /zh/ generally. This is kinda similar to /r/ sound in /car/ in American accent but prominantly sounds like 'l' sound. _______ Having so many sounds natively in most of the Indian languages makes it easier to transliterate and pronounce most of the English words, by an Indian language native, but with their own quirks. In Indian languages, for consonants, we have each letter for all those many sounds in English like : /k/, /g/ , /ch/, /j/, /t/, /th/, /d/, /p/ , /ph/, /f/, /b/, /m/, /n/ /l/, /r/, /s/, /sh/, /y/, /v/, /w/, /h/ etc. In all Indian languages basic pattern of sounds is as follows: 1.pure hard sound 2. Stressed version of previous sound (with puff of air) 3. Pure soft sound 4. Stressed version of previous sound (with puff of air) 5. Same mouth movement but resonance in throat. The alphabets or letters are sorted in such a way that, each row contains 5 versions of sounds (as mentioned before) that can be produced from same mouth-toungue movement, where the resonance point starts at the tip of the lips and progressively goes towards the throat near the fifth one. FOLLOWING ARE THE EXAMPLES: k - row: 1. /k/ as in flick 2. /kh/ as in kind (British) 3. /g/ as in gas 4. /gh/ ('g' sound with a puff of air) 5. Fifth sound not present in English. --- Ch - row: 1. /Ch/ as in church (American) Without releasing any puff of air 2. /Cch/ (stressed) as in Church (British) 3. /j/ as in jam 4. /jh/ (stressed) 5. Fifth sound not present in English. _____ T - row: 1. /t/ as in tank ( American) Without releasing any puff of air 2. /Th/ as in tank (British) 3. /d/ as in dark 4. /dh/(stressed) 5. /N/ similar to that if "know (British)" --- Th - row: 1. /t/ in thanks (American) Without releasing any puff of air 2. /th/ in thousand (British) 3. /d/ in Mother 4. /dh/ (above mentioned 'd' sound with a puff of air) 5. /n/ as in nine (American) ----- P - row: 1. /p/ as in pen (American) Without releasing any puff of air 2. /ph/ as in /pen/ (British) Different version /f/ as in /fan/ 3. /b/ as in bank 4. /bh/as in abhor 5. /m/ as in microphone ________________________________________ Apart from these, there are sounds for /y/ in yat /r/ , /l/, /v/ /s/ as in Sam /sh/ as in shock /s/ as in sir /h/ ____________________________________ ------------------------------------------------------- Another important characteristic is that: In Indian English accent, We just silent those letters in those specific words that are silenced universally, like "honest" where 'h' sound is silent almost in every English world wide. But we keep it simple and don't care to silence other letter like 'r' s or 't' s which are silent in some English accents but not all across the world like but, car etc , which vary between UK and US, and we just pronounce every letter. -------------------------------------------------------- Anyway the video was quite accurate, and I liked there is a video which portrays Indian English as it is with minimal confusion. And ofc it's nice that she touched upon the dialects of Indian English depending on the mother tongue or city of the speaker.

English was never our language 😂, but still we ace like pro in having highest number of accents of English you know 😎 Well accent also depends upon your school English teacher to be honest.
Let me tell u an amazing thing about our English accent: there is difference even in pronunciation of 'A' Like In north , we say it as अ In Bengal, it is pronounced as 'o' Like if we say Arjun , we will use अ in north india and say it 'Urjun' But in Bengal, it is pronounced as Orjunn

Well it was *the* indian accent ... Really better then most of the others mixed one!! We have strong t sound and the way he has divided the sound was very well arranged!! Nice work both of you ^^
The way she is putting so much emphasis on the letter 'r' many Indians don't do that. So she should have mentioned that English in india differs from region to region.
The prblm with indian english is we use hinglish in our daily lifestyle. Because we write hindi words using english alphabets too. But the pronunciation remains of pure hindi consonants because it offers more variety with same sound for eg hindi has 33 consonant whereas english only has 22 . So we can differentiate between t with e is sound as taa and teh.
At 2:25 - 'ட்' sound is available in south indian accent, she said i don't think so it is available, Indian accent differs with different parts of India, Several south Indian accents challenges many ppl to pronounce than native speakers... but otherwise it was very nice to watch the entire session
Honestly, I didn't pronounce any of the words the way she did. I don't have my pure Indian accent anymore. I have a great influence of American and British accent thanks to the movies and sitcoms. It's a mixture of all the accents! 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Thank you so much for this video. It's very descriptive for those who want to know more about the Indian accent. I daresay that the Indian girl speaks like many Latin American speakers of English. Monica from Argentina
Tbh Every Indian and different part of India has different accent... as she said that we also includes our mother tongue with English so it's gives different accent and thats how we can differentiate "oh he sounds more like a Mumbaikar" "oh she might be from south india" But what I think is like if we exclude our mother tounge dialect we have more like a American accent or Maybe like we try to get that because it's easier to have that accent for me I speak with an American accent and British is kinda Hard for me 😂 lol
India has linguistic diversity hence there is so much diversity in Indian accent...there is generally MTI (mother tongue influence) in the second/other language spoken by Indians. People tend to carry the phonetics and intonation while speaking non native language... Piyu said it right that sometimes we can identify the person's regional identity if he/she has influence of mother tongue (Ex. Marathi,Gujarati,Bengali,Punjabi,Tamil, Malayalam,etc.)...Accents also vary within the monolingual countries due to class, dialect, culture, region, etc. Even in UK there is so much difference in English accent such as cockey, RP, Yorkshire accent,etc...
Most people of NE Indian states donot have this accent. They resembles more of the American accent as far I have seen. Foreigners probably think North Indian accent to be the only Indian one but it's different like in every region.
Absolutely not . I am from Assam and we don't have American accent , we just say A for orange and B for Vegetables and others all North words . And don't know why you feel other tribal accents sounds American. Please stop bluffing. Thanks
Indian English accents change as per one's mother tongue (regional languages. E.g.: Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, Gujarati, Punjabi, etc.). Just like she said, we also have metro accents that have more foreign influence along with his/her regional language, if a person is more into books then he/she is more influenced by British accent because British English is an official standard or if he/she is more into Hollywood movies then by an American accent. It sometimes doesn't matter and both are used interchangeably. In Towns and rural areas, regional languages have a huge influence as English is less spoken. Therefore, there is no standard Indian English accent.
Very fun video!! I'm a Brit who has been working on and off in India for many years, I love the differences in accents and pronunciation, especially 'Hinglishisms', which I think are quite endearing.
hehe, there's a reason why Writing in Indian English is a subject in itself! You should research more in this genre. Indian Writing in English: Poetry and Prose is amazingly authentic! DO TRY !
Such a fun channel! I very often I understand where is someone coming from based on their accent! I love that! In my case, given that I lived in various countries, people are not sure of my origins and I like that! So fun to have them all guessing and almost never get it right :) Hugs from Italy (for now)
British "T" is combination of "ट्" and "ह्". Because it is a combination of 2 sounds, in Sanskrit, it can be considered a consonant. But it will not be added to the Sanskrit alphabet because "ट्" and "अ" combination is already there. All the consonants end with an "अ" sound because its 'the most basic sound'. It can be replaced with any of the Sanskrit vowel/consonant sound like "आ", इ, ई, र्, ह्, etc. All the combinations can't be in the Alphabet because than the number of alphabet will easily cross 200. Sanskrit is a very 'thought through' language. It aims to do include every sound, best writing systems for all these sounds, logical and regular patterns with least efforts. It has no dialects, accents for the same and changes to the language were only done by Scholars and learned people.
I'm from Northeast India,as many people said in this comment section that accent varies from place to place. Even in my family we have different English accents. My grandma has a bold and strong accent,my brother has a little less bold accent,I speak with an American accent idk I just grew talking in that accent,but my accent changes when I speak with different people lol.
I am sorry to say that some Indians themselves spread the wrong stereotypes around the world. The blatant ignorance about the rest of the country by a typical North Indian is shocking (and disheartening) sometimes..... and I am speaking as one.
His British accent is great 🔥 and India is a country where there are 20+ official languages and I just do wonder does we even have a common accent 😂 however "I am telling you..." this was amazinggg
There is a "THHH" sound in our languages. From my perspective in Hindi language of India we have the letter ठ in it. I don't know about other vernacular
the accents definetely vary all over india.....north indians have a different accent while the south indians have a different accent same goes with the east and west but its somewhat same with the north
I am from india and i am proud of being one.. But it's sad that i can't speak proper hindi as i am from North East.. 😀 Here in NE, we use English as a common language.. ❤️
This was fun. I love it. 😂💜 Maybe the presence or absence of particular set of sounds in Indian language affects the accent of the person. I want to know if the accent will differ based on communities or regions in India.
As an Indian, this is the best video I've seen, done by a foreigner, about the Indian accent. It was really fun to watch the different ways of pronounciation and speaking. And it also demonstrated perfectly how a person's mother tongue influences the way of speaking English.
I don't think I have ever said Breakfast, break and fast differently. It always switches between breakfast as American or as British. India doesn't have its own accent, we have mix of different accents due to colonization and modernization. You will find someone talking in English with hint of American accent and next person would be talking with a hint of British accent. And some other person would be mixing all of these together.
This was very indeed fun to film! 😂 I got reminded of my homeland so much.

Indian languages have more and accurate sounds than English and that's the reason you feel Indian accent different. In our languages, we write what we speak. We don't do silent things 😂.

“Ta”and “Tha” are two different sounds in many indian languages and are represented as different characters. There is no “Ta” sound in west. It’s difficult to describe in English as there are no alphabets or combination of alphabets to describe the spoken form correctly
And there are few sounds that.... North India doesn't have too.... What u said is So true....
True the "Thee" in English is equivalent to "ठ". We do not use it commonly though..
The English (British, American) 'T' sound is not present in any Indian languages.
Don't confuse western English 'T' sound with Indian 'थ'. Both are pronounced slightly different.
@@Saurabh.P they add “h” after “T“ sound and after “k” sound. It’s like “thaik” instead of indian “take” or “khaik” instead of indian “cake” sound. It’s just difficult to describe sounds in written form

They don't add H, infant T and D are independent sounds and we pronounce them incorrectly as they don't exists in Indian languages.
The थ sound in english is present and written as Th example 'Thanks'. Similarly V and W are two different sounds which exists in Hindi as well but there is no character to write 'W' in Devanagari. Example Diwali vs Deepavali. Watch this ruclips.net/video/M9O0QibVDjk/видео.html

india is technically more like an European union so india has different kind of accents according to the states for example south indian when they pronounce thirty(th) little different than the north indians and northeastern people will have more like Burmese accent it can be more close to east asian accent than to mainland indian accents

I live in North India and I also pronounce thirty(th)/(थ)

the truth is
we Indians read as it is written without gaping or missing any alphabets

since in Hindi there is a specific pronunciation for certain words and there is no mixing of pronunciation and alphabets.
WTF does that even mean? Native speakers get to decide how their own language is spoken. Your way of speaking only seems natural to you because you were born with that accent, to others, your accent would not sound that way.

In India we have more than thousands languages and 22 official languages,so every Indian accent is different. I want you to compare South Indian English accent to North Indian English accent it will be fun to see diversity.
To be honest, I think each individual in India has their own accent that they pick up depending on their mother tongue and the kind of english accents they get exposed to. So it doesn't just differ from state to state but also from individual to individual~
2:05 No we don't usually say the R but it just comes at times😂
2:25 it is there in malayalam
3:04 we don't usually say butteR necessarily, we say butt'eh' but British people say butt'ah'
Wait... I'm not being rude... I think south Indians have a different accent...? cuz i don't stress on the R like she does most of the times...
like for example...
'Learn', 'tire', 'thermal' - we don't say leaRRn, we say lea'eh'n, tieh, thehmal. Idk your name, but yeah, I think every state has a different accent especially south Indians cuz a malayalam speaking person's accent is way different from a kannada speaking person etc... every state has a different accent.
Exactly 😇😇 . 2:25 . Yes we do have that 't 'sound and if it's changed to 'T', the entire word meaning can change 😂😂. (patti Vs paTTi) 🤣🤣
4:02 we don't try to complicated 🇮🇳😌❤️
I think the letter 'റ്റ' in the Malayalam script, which can also be written as 'ററ', representing the ligature 'tta' is somewhat similar to the British pronunciation of 't'.
Yes
Well in tamil ,the combination of a constonant rr(ற்) and a vowel with rr (ற) in a formal aka medivial and ancient tamil. We usually mention this combination as (tr )in english. For eg:we say katr-uh meaning is wind that tr sound combination sounds more like a english "t". However in modern tamil pronouncuation that tr is replaced by th(த). Note that that rra is more sound like retroflex rra like in Russian not soft rolling ra in Spanish.
@@randomdude4258 In Tamil also, ற்ற is "British English TTA" and ன்ற is "British English NDA" only.
Srilankan Tamils, Kanyakumari & some Thoothukudi Tamils, (elite educated) Thondaimandalam Tamils still retain this pronunciation. Even in Madurai slang, in some words you can see this like "Kondepoduven= i will kill you", ""Kandu kutti =calf". Here, it's just "Alveolar nda" got changed into "Retroflex nda", a dialectical variation.
Recent mispronunciation of "ற்ற (Alveolar tta)" as "ட்ற(Retroflex tra)" and "ன்ற(Alveolar nda)" as "ண்ட்ற(Retroflex ndra)" is all due to the fact that (a section of/ regional) Tamil spoken in cinemas influenced the entire Tamilnadu to think and mispronounce these two clusters.
Sad truth is even the people who correctly pronounce them are diminishing due to visual media and cinema influence.
Just like how we write "Zha" for ழ , we write "tra" and "ndra" for "ற்ற" & "ன்ற". So what we write dosent matter here. It's just a convention to transliterate in English. But the current generation people are learning the pronunciation from English. That is also a reason for mispronounciation.
This convention of writing "காற்று=katru" is used to avoid the confusion when writting காட்டு (kattu) காற்று (Kattu). Because there's no Retroflex sound in English.
@@randomdude4258 ற is not at all Retroflex. It's Alveolar trill.
If you know Tamil well you can easily figure that out. Because Tamil grammar is designed in such a way so.
ல changes into ன and ற due to புணர்ச்சி (sandhi) which means they share a common place of articulation. They are all Alveolar.
Similarly, ள changes into ண and ட due to புணர்ச்சி (sandhi) which means they share a common place of articulation. They are all Retroflex.

I could see she tried her best to do the Indian accent haha.. cuz when she spoke in the end that's the city accent..
This actually demonstrated quite nicely, the actual characteristics of Indian English accent. It showed some of the common distinctive features of Indian accent.
________
The Indian English is primarily based on British English as British vocabulary, spellings and pronounciation rules were taught in schools predominantly.
However, due to pop culture, TV shows, movies, American pronounciations and vocabulary has also creeped into Indian English making it a mixture of both, with additional influence from the mother tongue of the speaker.
I would like to chart out as much as I can about Indian English accent in a broad manner:
Common distinctive features of Indian accent
-Like the simplification of sounds while pronouncing a word (to the extent where the meaning is conveyed and the word is distinct enough and it's uniqueness is not lost).
Like simplifying unnecessary cosmetic features of foreign accent like dipthongs on case of simpler words.
Example: "care" that's pronounced /kheia/ or /kheir/ in UK or US is pronounced as /ke-r/
(Replacing complicated dipthong /ei/ with simpler equivalent /e-/ and pronouncing the consonant sound /k/ cleaner and simpler without any stress or intonation).
However, we retain the dipthong in the words where, that specific dipthong is required in that word, for it to be equivalent to the other pronounciations and simplifying it might make it sound totally like a different word, in which case, the dipthong is pronounced.
Example: the word "pair" is pronounced as /pair/ and the dipthong /ai/ is retained as if it is simplified, it becomes a totally different sounding word like "pare" which is pronounced in India as "pe-r".
This selective simplification of dipthongs Indian English actually eliminates many homophones, by alloting them distinctive pronounciation (yet familiar enough to a foreign English speaker, without alienating them).
-----------------------------------------
--> the main reason for this, can be understood by the following exercise:
As almost all the English words can be transliterated in respective Indian languages, and the in the process, when the transliterated English words in Indian languages are pronounced by an Indian native speaker (without making those words ambiguous or homophones), Naturally it simplifies the complicated sounds wherever they are unnecessary, and to convey the actual word distinctively.
*If that specific sound is not present in the particular local language, then equivalent sound from that language is used often or even the exact sound from the British/American accent will be used.
And the different dialects of Indian English arise from this similar transliteration process from respective languages and the nuances of pronounciation in those specific languages and pronounciation rules of those languages dictate the way in which those English words will be pronounced by that particular speaker having that particular regional language as their mother tongue, giving rise to different dialects of Indian English all across the states and the country.
Since even local languages also have their own dialects in those respective states that is varying from region to region, based on the background of those people i.e., demographics and education, that additionally adds more complexity to the nuanced Variations of Indian accent everywhere in India.
Also, it is common in many indian languages to pronounce every syllable of the words (when written) distinctively in pure form without any accent (of course following that specific pronounciation rules and intonations of that language). The Indian languages are syllable based where vowels are the base of the sounds and they are pronounced by themselves or when attached to the consonants (simple or mixed).
Importance is given to the simplest syllable sound itself (in the written form of the sounds in those languages), but not the random pronounciation rules like in English where spelling and pronunciation can be miles apart sometimes.
Hence transliterating English words, retaining their unique sound to the equivalent simpler version of those sounds is what is the fundamental make up of the pronounciation in Indian accent.
Best way to understand Indian accent pronounciation is:
It's very simple, as we'll just be pronouncing syllable by syllable in local language when written in its script, without any crazy arbitrary rules like in English, while speaking Indian Accent of English.
________________________
Coming back to the examples:
Even in case of 'r' sound, we don't pronounce the "wr" sound as pronounced in many foreign English speakers, and keep it simple 'r' sound but clearer by rolling the 'r' sound twice may be (which is not so simple to the extent of the soft 'r' sound (without rolling it) as a Japanese person speaks, which might be misheard as /l/ or /r/ by different people).
This type of usage of 'r' sound is also attributed to characteristics of that specific Indian language.
Also, in some Indian languages, there are 2 types of "r" sounds, (twice rolling the 'r' and other with rolling the 'r' multiple times). Anyway the second type of "r" is not common and almost never used while speaking Indian accent of English.
-- ------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------
GENERAL SOUNDS PRESENT IN INDIAN LANGUAGES:
There are 2 or 3 types of 'l' sounds in some Indian languages as well.
1. Normal version
As in "like"
2. With tongue rolled and touched to the back portion of the palate and pronounced.
3. Pull the tongue backwards, curl it forward and release air while curling it backwards. This is transcribed as /zh/ generally. This is kinda similar to /r/ sound in /car/ in American accent but prominantly sounds like 'l' sound.
_______
Having so many sounds natively in most of the Indian languages makes it easier to transliterate and pronounce most of the English words, by an Indian language native, but with their own quirks.
In Indian languages, for consonants,
we have each letter for all those many sounds in English like :
/k/, /g/ , /ch/, /j/, /t/, /th/, /d/, /p/ , /ph/, /f/, /b/, /m/, /n/ /l/, /r/, /s/, /sh/, /y/, /v/, /w/, /h/ etc.
In all Indian languages basic pattern of sounds is as follows:
1.pure hard sound
2. Stressed version of previous sound (with puff of air)
3. Pure soft sound
4. Stressed version of previous sound (with puff of air)
5. Same mouth movement but resonance in throat.
The alphabets or letters are sorted in such a way that, each row contains 5 versions of sounds (as mentioned before) that can be produced from same mouth-toungue movement, where the resonance point starts at the tip of the lips and progressively goes towards the throat near the fifth one.
FOLLOWING ARE THE EXAMPLES:
k - row:
1. /k/ as in flick
2. /kh/ as in kind (British)
3. /g/ as in gas
4. /gh/ ('g' sound with a puff of air)
5. Fifth sound not present in English.
---
Ch - row:
1. /Ch/ as in church (American) Without releasing any puff of air
2. /Cch/ (stressed) as in Church (British)
3. /j/ as in jam
4. /jh/ (stressed)
5. Fifth sound not present in English.
_____
T - row:
1. /t/ as in tank ( American) Without releasing any puff of air
2. /Th/ as in tank (British)
3. /d/ as in dark
4. /dh/(stressed)
5. /N/ similar to that if "know (British)"
---
Th - row:
1. /t/ in thanks (American) Without releasing any puff of air
2. /th/ in thousand (British)
3. /d/ in Mother
4. /dh/ (above mentioned 'd' sound with a puff of air)
5. /n/ as in nine (American)
-----
P - row:
1. /p/ as in pen (American) Without releasing any puff of air
2. /ph/ as in /pen/ (British)
Different version /f/ as in /fan/
3. /b/ as in bank
4. /bh/as in abhor
5. /m/ as in microphone
________________________________________
Apart from these, there are sounds for
/y/ in yat
/r/ , /l/, /v/
/s/ as in Sam
/sh/ as in shock
/s/ as in sir
/h/
____________________________________
-------------------------------------------------------
Another important characteristic is that:
In Indian English accent, We just silent those letters in those specific words that are silenced universally, like "honest" where 'h' sound is silent almost in every English world wide.
But we keep it simple and don't care to silence other letter like 'r' s or 't' s which are silent in some English accents but not all across the world like but, car etc , which vary between UK and US, and we just pronounce every letter.
--------------------------------------------------------
Anyway the video was quite accurate, and I liked there is a video which portrays Indian English as it is with minimal confusion.
And ofc it's nice that she touched upon the dialects of Indian English depending on the mother tongue or city of the speaker.

I love Goa ♡ just recently visited there ♡
English was never our language 😂, but still we ace like pro in having highest number of accents of English you know 😎
Well accent also depends upon your school English teacher to be honest.
No It wasn't
Let me tell u an amazing thing about our English accent:
there is difference even in pronunciation of 'A'
Like In north , we say it as अ
In Bengal, it is pronounced as 'o'
Like if we say Arjun , we will use अ in north india and say it 'Urjun' But in Bengal, it is pronounced as Orjunn
As a assamese speaker I can related to it.
That applies to every state. Basically we Indians have our own English accent lol
The accents differ with regions in India
U may find some so called high class accents but the way by which u could pronounce word more clearly and easy are the best one for u
If u go in deep then u would know the diction thing
Even in my school , I was taught that english is not hindi which u can prounounce same as alphabets .
One has to follow the diction recird behind it
Even these are deliberately cleared in Oxford English Hindi dictionary.
Many indians prounounce many words incorrectly acc to it
By the way english doesn't has -ar
sound
Water can't prounounce like she prounounced
We can promote wrong things by just taking pride over that it's indian accents
I say A(aa) rr joon
Yess
Well it was *the* indian accent ... Really better then most of the others mixed one!!
We have strong t sound and the way he has divided the sound was very well arranged!! Nice work both of you ^^
The way she is putting so much emphasis on the letter 'r' many Indians don't do that. So she should have mentioned that English in india differs from region to region.
Yes it makes me feel like I'm from different region lol
She did mention that.
But almost every Indian puts more emphasis on r sound than that UK guy.
India is a diverse country, that's it😌😊🇮🇳
The prblm with indian english is we use hinglish in our daily lifestyle. Because we write hindi words using english alphabets too. But the pronunciation remains of pure hindi consonants because it offers more variety with same sound for eg hindi has 33 consonant whereas english only has 22 . So we can differentiate between t with e is sound as taa and teh.
At 2:25 - 'ட்' sound is available in south indian accent, she said i don't think so it is available, Indian accent differs with different parts of India, Several south Indian accents challenges many ppl to pronounce than native speakers... but otherwise it was very nice to watch the entire session
Her english has mild korean accent to it. Very noticeable in her videos on instagram and facebook.
Honestly, I didn't pronounce any of the words the way she did. I don't have my pure Indian accent anymore. I have a great influence of American and British accent thanks to the movies and sitcoms. It's a mixture of all the accents! 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
XD same
FRR-
There is no Indian English accent, it's a colloquial group.
I really love her saying it, if there is a R sound then just make it don't skip it.
자동으로 한국어 자막 켜지길래 쭉 봤는데
자막보면서 새삼 한글이 대단하다고 느껴짐... 저 발음을 전부 다 표현한다는게 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
세종대왕님 감사합니다
2:23 We do have a half-T sound and its "त्"
Loved the video ❤️
Thank you so much for this video. It's very descriptive for those who want to know more about the Indian accent. I daresay that the Indian girl speaks like many Latin American speakers of English.
Monica from Argentina
Tbh Every Indian and different part of India has different accent... as she said that we also includes our mother tongue with English so it's gives different accent and thats how we can differentiate "oh he sounds more like a Mumbaikar" "oh she might be from south india"
But what I think is like if we exclude our mother tounge dialect we have more like a American accent or Maybe like we try to get that because it's easier to have that accent for me I speak with an American accent and British is kinda Hard for me 😂 lol
"I am telling you"🤣🤣🤣 the best one,,,, really you say soo well 💞❤️
India has linguistic diversity hence there is so much diversity in Indian accent...there is generally MTI (mother tongue influence) in the second/other language spoken by Indians. People tend to carry the phonetics and intonation while speaking non native language... Piyu said it right that sometimes we can identify the person's regional identity if he/she has influence of mother tongue (Ex. Marathi,Gujarati,Bengali,Punjabi,Tamil, Malayalam,etc.)...Accents also vary within the monolingual countries due to class, dialect, culture, region, etc. Even in UK there is so much difference in English accent such as cockey, RP, Yorkshire accent,etc...
Most people of NE Indian states donot have this accent. They resembles more of the American accent as far I have seen. Foreigners probably think North Indian accent to be the only Indian one but it's different like in every region.
American accent ye Kuch zyada nhi hogya 🤔 accent changes with location
Absolutely not . I am from Assam and we don't have American accent , we just say A for orange and B for Vegetables and others all North words . And don't know why you feel other tribal accents sounds American. Please stop bluffing. Thanks
Everyone has a unique accent
Indian English accents change as per one's mother tongue (regional languages. E.g.: Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, Gujarati, Punjabi, etc.). Just like she said, we also have metro accents that have more foreign influence along with his/her regional language, if a person is more into books then he/she is more influenced by British accent because British English is an official standard or if he/she is more into Hollywood movies then by an American accent. It sometimes doesn't matter and both are used interchangeably. In Towns and rural areas, regional languages have a huge influence as English is less spoken. Therefore, there is no standard Indian English accent.
Very fun video!! I'm a Brit who has been working on and off in India for many years, I love the differences in accents and pronunciation, especially 'Hinglishisms', which I think are quite endearing.
Really fun watching this.
she's so comfortable in her own skin its actually charming!!!
hehe, there's a reason why Writing in Indian English is a subject in itself! You should research more in this genre. Indian Writing in English: Poetry and Prose is amazingly authentic! DO TRY !
3:42 only people who speak Hindi do that Rrrrrrrrr sound, I, being from Calcutta City, can't pronounce that 😂
@Tanumoy Mondal আরে, আমরা উচ্চারণ করি Pronounce, ওরা করে Prrrrrronounce
Such a fun channel! I very often I understand where is someone coming from based on their accent! I love that! In my case, given that I lived in various countries, people are not sure of my origins and I like that! So fun to have them all guessing and almost never get it right :) Hugs from Italy (for now)
British "T" is combination of "ट्" and "ह्". Because it is a combination of 2 sounds, in Sanskrit, it can be considered a consonant. But it will not be added to the Sanskrit alphabet because "ट्" and "अ" combination is already there.
All the consonants end with an "अ" sound because its 'the most basic sound'. It can be replaced with any of the Sanskrit vowel/consonant sound like "आ", इ, ई, र्, ह्, etc.
All the combinations can't be in the Alphabet because than the number of alphabet will easily cross 200.
Sanskrit is a very 'thought through' language. It aims to do include every sound, best writing systems for all these sounds, logical and regular patterns with least efforts. It has no dialects, accents for the same and changes to the language were only done by Scholars and learned people.
She is speaking in marathi english accent more than hindi english accent so that's why her words are crystal clear like marathi...😍
The "T" and "D" sound is called a retroflex. It's unique to the Indian subcontinent.
I like your channel. The pronounciation is really different. This video is really helpful. Thank you so much.💖💕❤
Her accent is so attractive the way she speaks it's just nice too listen.
I'm from Northeast India,as many people said in this comment section that accent varies from place to place. Even in my family we have different English accents. My grandma has a bold and strong accent,my brother has a little less bold accent,I speak with an American accent idk I just grew talking in that accent,but my accent changes when I speak with different people lol.
As an south Indian..I can totally relate to your same story!! Exactly true
I am sorry to say that some Indians themselves spread the wrong stereotypes around the world. The blatant ignorance about the rest of the country by a typical North Indian is shocking (and disheartening) sometimes..... and I am speaking as one.
This is a very respectful breakdown of a language I'm not too much of a fan of the sounds. But I'm gaining more respect. Thanks!
His British accent is great 🔥 and India is a country where there are 20+ official languages and I just do wonder does we even have a common accent 😂 however "I am telling you..." this was amazinggg
Yeah I am from Maharashtra and living in South India sis, so happy to see you 🤩
In india everyone has his own accent🤣😎
In India we have 12 vowels and 36 consonants each with theri own 12 sub categories . So ofcourse you will get a better clearly in speech as well
I like Indian accent..😍😍😍😍
There is a "THHH" sound in our languages. From my perspective in Hindi language of India we have the letter ठ in it. I don't know about other vernacular
the accents definetely vary all over india.....north indians have a different accent while the south indians have a different accent same goes with the east and west but its somewhat same with the north
I am from india and i am proud of being one..
But it's sad that i can't speak proper hindi as i am from North East.. 😀
Here in NE, we use English as a common language.. ❤️
This was fun. I love it. 😂💜 Maybe the presence or absence of particular set of sounds in Indian language affects the accent of the person. I want to know if the accent will differ based on communities or regions in India.
💯💯
We indian sound all alohabrts in a word feel proud to be an Indian😍
Billy is cute af
As an Indian, this is the best video I've seen, done by a foreigner, about the Indian accent. It was really fun to watch the different ways of pronounciation and speaking. And it also demonstrated perfectly how a person's mother tongue influences the way of speaking English.
Honesty it varies from person to person.It usually depends on what you're exposed to hearing.
I don't think I have ever said Breakfast, break and fast differently. It always switches between breakfast as American or as British. India doesn't have its own accent, we have mix of different accents due to colonization and modernization. You will find someone talking in English with hint of American accent and next person would be talking with a hint of British accent. And some other person would be mixing all of these together.
That mix accent became our own Indian accent
Yo Ackerman, many girls are ur fan..... U should sometimes do a fan signing event
We actually have 135 million accent..one accent per person . Still we can understand each other..😂
I am an Indian keralite and we have the british `t´ in our mallu language..accent changes in every regions in India.
