I was jk. I'm not a hat person. I'm not a sunglasses person either. Actually, I wear no accessories whatsoever now that I think about it.

I always thought that Urdu and Hindi were the same language... Just written differently.

Yes, you are correct but they are now considered 2 separate languages & nobody has a problem with it.
So if someone can speak Urdu then they can speak Hindi automatically & vice versa.

Yeah? Well I just leaned South African, Irish and West Indian English mhm

And throw in South Asian English to boot.

South Asian English is very hard to master because every word has a hand or head signal to go with it.
So if your gonna do it, then do it right because you might end up with a slipper thrown at you if you f*ck up the timing of your words & head/hand signals.

Me: Not interested.

It's why we love our dear majid86.

To all the Bilingual People:

What accent do you have when you speak the other language?

When I speak English, I speak with a Chicano accent (Mexican-American talk). But when I speak Spanish, I speak with a Norteño accent (a person from Northwestern Mexico), which sounds very different from Castillian Spanish, as well as other kinds of regional Mexican Spanish.

So what about you?
