Common english words that most desis pronounce incorrectly

Well there are many but some surface alot. Add on any that you think are worth correcting and hopefully get people to fix their words and avoid embarassing their kids infront of our white masters.

Bear (bhaloo). How desis say it: beer. errr

Quebec (the province). How desis say it: kiu-bec. Remember, its kwi-bec not kiu.

Lion. How desis say it: loy-un. Again, its lai-un, not loy-un.

Thankyou

Sincerely,
Captain Lota

language is just a tool of communication, where their rhetorical devices just another way to showoff.
