I’ve spent long enough in the industry that I am relatively comfortable with many of the accents, I would love a class to exist that teaches non-Indians the dialect.



Welcome to my ted talk:

Prepone

Do the needful

Kindly

You are now well-versed.

I'm joking though. That would be a fun class to take!


I think after about a year in tech consulting I developed a pretty robust ability to understand accents that most Americans have trouble with. Chinese, Russian, Indian, Nigerian, you name it. I guess if someone wants to practice they could listen to Kitboga or something.


Right, everyone else needs to adjust to the Indian dialect of English.


Need or else, your career may improve if you can work with a wider group of talented people.
