Insulted for being an NRI..

[QUOTE=DesBhakt;683757]There are a lot of people whose accents are very hard to understand. Better to at least neutralize accents.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=ILuvHyd;683746]I don't agree with this. People have lot of biases subconsciously that play out.

[QUOTE=wd40;683734].......... I wonder why Indians can't be cool with our accent. [/QUOTE] I think they have taken it quite literally "[I]when in Rome be a Roman[/I]". Whites know that we are struggling and will have a hearty laugh behind us. It is self-delusional thinking that we keep cheating ...

Insulted for being an NRI..

[QUOTE=wd40;683729]No they don't. The call center industry has already brought a bad name to the accent. I personally think the Indian accent of English is pretty cool and I always stick to it when I speak with foreigners. I don't try to fake an accent. They know we are Indians and they can ...

Insulted for being an NRI..

I am surprised this thread is still active. All these innuendos and insults aren't part of 'India' and 'NRI'. It happens in our lives one way or other in any part of the world, although the subtelties may differ. I don't think somebody would be ready to claim they walked on golden sand with a floral ...
