[edit]Dear Juxtapozbliss,
Nice to see the dialect, especially in Indian accent. However, I am affraid, there isn't unique accent covering the whole of India. To ellaborate a little further I should give the following list to make the Indian accents clear.
- They : Southern part Dey Central and Western parts Dhe Eastern part Dhey
- Their: South Deir Central Western Dher Eastern Dhe-ar
- Their: South Der Central Western Dher Eastern Dhere North: Dhere(the e like a is extended)
- Indeed is indid al most everywhere, (now changing)
- In Maharashtra (part of southern India where Bombay is located) V is pronounced like VHEE; In Eastern part V becomes B
- Actually: Actully
- the: In western part Dhee In central and eastern part dee and in southern part da.
- perceive : pershiv
- Metro is relatively a new-commer to India. We used city as sheety
- demn --indicating a sort of superlative degree -- is relatively a new-commer to India. We used city as more and much
Looking at the History, the English Language first entered into India from Western and Eastern India, prominently from Eastern Part. Thus the conversation could be.
“Saahib…ho-ehmo is funny. Yes, indid. Dhey eat dhe-ar own child’s foochure. Actully like bairus. But actully lookin-gh ona you now—pleaze!—I pershive rain is slow dee homochrome espect ona your bio-elogicle (like kil) pro-spec-tius. Which iza vhery goot, becaaz…I bein-gh ho-ehmo hunter-walla, is what my nem is called.” [Mister. Homo (sapiens) are strange. They eat their own children’s future. Like a virus. Looking at you, now, I can clearly see the rain has slowed the homochrome aspect of your biological prospectus. Which is good for you, because I’m a homo hunter.]
“You’re a what?!?!” Raised my voice.
“Yes, dee same is true. I wood hunt ho-ehmos ona time to time.” [Yes, it’s true. I hunt homos from time to time.]
“What…where do you do that?”
“Just I wood drive to dis thhing, dee sheety. Ho-em of deh ho-ehmo, right? Not too much far. You goa withh me?” [I would drive to the city. Home of the homos, right? It’s not far. Why don’t you go with me?]
“I’m…not sure.”
“Metro-shmetro, do no be in tenshion. Is boring-boring. Free of cost! Where you are going anyway?” [The City - don't be stressed. It’s boring there. No charge to go. What else do you have to do anyway?]
I hope this helps. Please let me know.
Love and Best regards,
