    I don’t know what’s wrong with my accent. Even when I dont stress R and D people still know I’m Indian in gaming.

      Probably because you are polite. Try trashtalking more. It seems the thing to do these days if you’re trying to pass as a white middle schooler boy.

        Nah. I don’t play in Indian servers cause they are the most toxic ones lol. White middle schooler boy is an old stereotype. Now every kid is doing it.

      Maybe the cadence? And I wouldn’t say there’s anything wrong with your accent but rather it’s apparent what your mother tongue is.

        It’s really not apparent what my mother tongue is. You can take a guess.

            Most probably. It’s amusing to me how people with different mother tongues end up with the same accent.

            Also my mother tongue is urdu.
