    Kumail has pretty much lost the accent. On a scale of 1-10, with 1 being a strong South Asian accent, and 10 being a strong American accent (standard register), I think Kumail is at about a 7.5 or an 8.

      @@BuildinWings Oh no, I'm sure that's the case. But I grew up in India, and moved to the US very late in my life, so I don't have the first clue about what young South Asian-Americans sound like. I still speak with an Indian accent, when I'm around South Asians. And I'm 27 now, so I don't think I'll ever completely lose the accent. I'm not even trying to lose it.

      You know, I never would have thought this as a person born in America (and weirdly enough in an area where the accent is considered to be very localized and strong), but now that you mention it I can actually see what you mean. His accent is noticeable enough that I detect it as “foreign,” but when I actually think about it, it’s really not very strong. Than you Mr. Singh, you gave me an interesting thing to think about today.

    Can accents be funny?
    Pete Holmes holds his breath for the answer.
    Kumail: Yes.
    Pete: Oh thank God.

    • @StevenKilpatrick
      @StevenKilpatrick 5 років тому +6

      That's a totally different take away than I had from this. Not only did he let Kumail answer, but when Kumail turned things around and started asking Anthony questions, Anthony rolled with it and put the segment aside for a minute and a half to keep the organic conversation going. This reminds me of the way Pete Holmes used to interview comedians on his Team Coco late-night show.

    nothing wrong with an accent, don't like it when people "force" an accent or try to sound like something or someone else hoping to fit in.
