No? I am an Indian living in India, and if a Pakistani person were to live next door I wouldn't be able to make it out unless he told me himself.


Im neither but I can tell a Pakistani accent from an Indian one. Is that not the case there?

And you would certainly know if you were working with someone, at least here.

I suppose I have spent a lot of time with Indian Americans but not as much with Indians in India (just zoom calls) so that’s interesting.


Pakistani accents often perfectly coincide with Punjabi and UP (Indian states) accents.
