Researching Characters so you don't have to Part 2: Pavitr Prabhakar & His Dialect
Tumblr media
NOT MY ART! Click on it for the link! <3
Pavitr Prabhakar's accent is basically non-existent in writing. Its not like Hobie's where you make some letters silent and enunciate specific parts of the words. Indian accents, especially Pav's aren't shown through writing, which is perfectly fine. The difficult part of trying to write Pavitr Prabhakar is his dialect, not his accent.
Like I explained in my last post, dialect and accents aren't the same thing. An accent is the way someone pronounces things while the dialect is an accent along with vocabulary and grammar. Pavitr's dialect would be heavily influenced by Mumbai dialect, considering the fact that he lives in Mumbattan.
First off, Indians speak English. Like if you go to India, I guarantee that 90% of the people there under the age of 40 will speak fairly fluent English. Schools in India teach multiple languages, one of them usually being English, and Indian children are almost fluent in English by the age of 10-13. Its basically a necessity.
So if you're going to write Pav, don't butcher his English and make him sound like he doesn't speak it well, because thats not true. Most Indians speak English really well, and you shouldn't feed into the stereotypes with your writing.
However, he would speak a mixture of languages together. Think of it like Spanglish, where you use English grammar for Spanish words. Its the same thing with Indians. They often toss a couple of English words into a sentence using the grammar of whatever language they're speaking, whether its Hindi, Marathi, Tamil, Telugu, etc. They would also do it the other way around, tossing Hindi/Marathi/etc phrases into English sentences. So if you're going to write Pav, writing him tossing in Hindi phrases is going to be a lot more accurate than writing broken English or even full English, Especially if you're going to be writing him with his aunt, uncle or Gayatri, because they are all going to be speaking the same, if not a similar language, even if you're going to write them in English.
There's not much else to say, besides the fact that Indians tend to use some English words much more than they do in the west. For example Indians say the word "bro" a lot. Its seen in movies and just in general as well. Teenage boys and young adult men say "bro" almost all the time, usually referring to their friends, classmates, cousins, etc. But, they wouldn't say it to someone older to them or someone they need to be respectful towards, like a boss etc.
Some other phrases (Hindi) that Indians tend to use a lot are:
Bhaiyya (older brother - used to refer to boys older than you)
Achha? (really? - often used sarcastically but can also be used normally)
Arre! (Hey, hey you! - used to call someone, used to get someone's attention)
Yaar (friend - light/friendly slang term for a friend)
Like always, research is going to be your best friend, so if you want to find more of these phrases you can search them up on Google. Hopefully this helped <3

/r/ is usually flapped or trilled.[30] In intervocalic position, it may have a single contact and be described as a flap [ɾ],[31] but it may also be a clear trill, especially in word-initial and syllable-final positions, and geminate /rː/ is always a trill in Arabic and Persian loanwords, e.g. zarā [zəɾaː] (ज़रा – ذرا 'little') versus well-trilled zarrā [zəraː] (ज़र्रा – ذرّہ 'particle'). [...]
Loanwords from Persian (including some words which Persian itself borrowed from Arabic or Turkish) introduced six consonants, /f, z, ʒ, q, x, ɣ/. Being Persian in origin, these are seen as a defining feature of Urdu, although these sounds officially exist in Hindi and modified Devanagari characters are available to represent them.[35][36] Among these, /f, z/, also found in English and Portuguese loanwords, are now considered well-established in Hindi; indeed, /f/ appears to be encroaching upon and replacing /pʰ/ even in native (non-Persian, non-English, non-Portuguese) Hindi words as well as many other Indian languages such as Bengali, Gujarati and Marathi, as happened in Greek with phi.[21] This /pʰ/ to /f/ shift also occasionally occurs in Urdu.[37] While [z] is a foreign sound, it is also natively found as an allophone of /s/ beside voiced consonants.
The other three Persian loans, /q, x, ɣ/, are still considered to fall under the domain of Urdu, and are also used by some Hindi speakers; however, other Hindi speakers may assimilate these sounds to /k, kʰ, g/ respectively.[25][35][38] The sibilant /ʃ/ is found in loanwords from all sources (Arabic, English, Portuguese, Persian, Sanskrit) and is well-established.[10] Some Hindi speakers (especially those from rural areas) pronounce the /f, z, ʃ/ sounds as /pʰ, dʒ, s/), though these same speakers, having a Sanskritic education, may hyperformally uphold /ɳ/ and [ʂ].[39][24] In contrast, for native speakers of Urdu, the maintenance of /f, z, ʃ/ is not commensurate with education and sophistication, but is characteristic of all social levels.[38] The sibilant /ʒ/ is very rare and is found in loanwords from Persian, Portuguese, and English and is considered to fall under the domain of Urdu and although it is officially present in Hindi, many speakers of Hindi assimilate it to /z/ or /dʒ/.[27][24]
Being the main sources from which Hindustani draws its higher, learned terms– English, Sanskrit, Arabic, and to a lesser extent Persian provide loanwords with a rich array of consonant clusters. The introduction of these clusters into the language contravenes a historical tendency within its native core vocabulary to eliminate clusters through processes such as cluster reduction and epenthesis.
what fascinates me about linguistics is that i have known all of this, intuitively, i know which sounds are urdu sounds, which are the upper and lower registers in hindi, i have also heard the complaints of elders about the loss of the proper /ph/ and i have never ever systematised this knowledge but continue retain it through sheer practice.

A thread on Hindi imposition debate. #HindiDiwas
At the time of India’s Independence, Hindi was still a language in the making. The geographical reach of Hindi was not bigger than that of Telugu or Bengali. Hindi was not the mother tongue of people in Awadh, Braj, Mithila, Magadh, Bundelkhand, Ahirwal, Nimad, Marwar or Mewar.
In these areas, each language is unique and it is not easy for a Maithil person to understand Bundelkhandi or Brajbhasa.
As Hindi was not standardised in 1947, the government tasked the Central Hindi Directorate to do so.
After much deliberation, it was decided to use roman numerical. It is still not settled whether to use Persian/Arabic/Turkic words in Hindi or not and what is better, Sanskritised Hindi or Hindustani.
Echoing this sentiment, former CM of Madras Presidency and Rajya Sabha member P. Subbarayan presented a dissent note to the 1st Official Language Commission.
Subbarayan said “People who possess as their mother tongues well formed languages with a continuous literary history of over thousand years and more like Bengali, Assamese, Oriya, Marathi, Gujarati, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada and Punjabi feel very difficult about accepting this new policy about official language, particularly when by direct and indirect means, it is attempted to be forced upon them.”
Hindi was given priority over other languages in the Constitution.
Article 351 says, “It shall be the duty of the Union to promote the spread of the Hindi language, to develop it so that it may serve as a medium of expression for all the elements of the composite culture of India and to secure its enrichment by assimilating without interfering with its genius, the forms, style and expressions used in Hindustani and in the other languages of India specified in the Eighth Schedule, and by drawing, wherever necessary or desirable, for its vocabulary, primarily on Sanskrit and secondarily on other languages.”
This idea of making Hindi “a medium of expression for all the elements of the composite cultures of India” is flawed and deeply contested. Hindi was accorded this coveted position by the Constituent Assembly and not by Parliament consisting of elected representatives.
North Indian Hindi-speaking members of the Congress party in the Constituent Assembly insisted that Hindi was accepted as the Official Language of the Indian Union.
In the post-Independence era, Hindi grew but the growth was not organic. The Union government spent money to promote Hindi especially in non-Hindi-speaking areas so that it may be accepted as the link language nationally.
The Department of Official language was given specific task that involved “co-ordination in all matters relating to the progressive use of Hindi as the Official Language of the Union, including administrative terminology, syllabi, textbooks, training courses and equipments.
There is a Hindi training programme in place for central government employees since 1955.
The presidential order dated 27 April 1960 said “in-service training in Hindi may be made obligatory for Central Government employees who are aged less than 45 years.
The Union government is running these programmes across the country. In government departments across India, Hindi Day is celebrated and essay and typing competitions are held. Government rewards good performers in these competitions.
There is an Official Language Wing in the law ministry, which translates all government bills in Hindi. At the same time, no incentive is given to Hindi-speaking employees for learning other Indian languages.
In the field of education, the 1st Official Language Commission had put much emphasis on introduction of Hindi as compulsory subject in secondary schools in all non-Hindi areas, so that the next generation of Indians may be Hindi-knowing, It brushed aside the suggestion that students in Hindi-speaking areas in secondary schools should compulsorily learn another Indian language.
The Commission instead suggested that options for these students should include languages like Sanskrit, French, German, and Russian.
This was the mainstream idea related to the language policy just after the Independence that non-Hindi students must learn Hindi, but Hindi students should study Sanskrit or some foreign language.
Mass media also played a crucial role in the proliferation of Hindi. Until the 1990s, the Union government was in sole control of radio and television. Television broadcasting started in 1965 and till the mid-1990s, most of the programming was in Hindi.
Only after regional stations were established that things started to change. But by that time, the foundation had already been laid. During 1983-1991, many popular programmes and serials were launched in Hindi.
Mythological serials like Ramayana and Mahabharata became powerful vehicles to carry Hindi with the religious massaging.

Mumbai Preschool Language Development: Going Beyond ABCs
Preschool is a pivotal phase in a child's development where they don't just learn their ABCs; they lay the foundation for language skills that will serve them throughout life. In the vibrant city of Mumbai, preschools play a pivotal role in nurturing linguistic abilities in young learners. This article explores the multifaceted approach to language development in Mumbai preschools. Whether you're searching for "preschools in Mumbai" or "preschools near me in Mumbai," this guide will empower you to make informed decisions and ensure that your child receives the comprehensive language education they need. We'll also delve into the role of technology, including school parent apps, in enhancing the language learning journey.
Tumblr media
The Power of Language Development
Language development is a multifaceted process encompassing listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. It's not just about memorizing the alphabet; it's about fostering effective communication, critical thinking, and the ability to express ideas and emotions. In Mumbai's preschools, language development is taken seriously for several compelling reasons:
1. Multilingual Environment
Mumbai is a melting pot of cultures and languages, with residents hailing from various linguistic backgrounds. Preschools in the city recognize the importance of multilingualism and strive to create an inclusive environment where children can learn and appreciate different languages, including regional ones.
2. Communication Skills
Effective communication is a life skill that opens doors to success in school and beyond. Preschools focus on building a strong communication foundation, ensuring that children can express themselves with clarity and confidence. It's not just about what they say but also how effectively they convey their thoughts.
3. Cognitive Growth
Language development is closely linked to cognitive growth. It enhances problem-solving abilities, critical thinking, and memory retention. A strong linguistic foundation positively impacts academic performance and prepares children for the challenges of the modern world.
4. Social Interaction
Language skills are vital for social interaction and forming relationships. Children who can articulate their thoughts and emotions are better equipped to navigate social situations and build positive connections with peers. Effective communication fosters empathy and understanding.
Approaches to Language Development
In Mumbai preschools, language development goes beyond rote learning. Educators employ various approaches to foster language skills in young learners:
1. Multilingual Exposure
Preschools in Mumbai often expose children to multiple languages, including the regional language, Hindi, English, and sometimes even additional languages like Marathi or Gujarati. This exposure helps children become more proficient in various languages and appreciate linguistic diversity from an early age.
2. Storytelling and Reading
Storytelling sessions and reading corners are common features in Mumbai preschools. They introduce children to the world of books and stories, sparking their imagination and language skills. Preschool teachers often use expressive storytelling techniques to engage children and make the experience enjoyable.
3. Vocabulary Building
Preschools focus on enriching vocabulary by introducing new words in context. Thematic lessons and activities help children associate words with real-life experiences, making learning more engaging and memorable. This approach lays the groundwork for effective communication and literacy.
4. Creative Expression
Artistic activities, such as drawing, painting, and drama, provide children with opportunities to express themselves creatively. These activities enhance language skills by encouraging children to describe their creations, share their thoughts, or act out stories. Creative expression nurtures both linguistic and artistic development.
Role of Technology: School Parent Apps
In the digital age, technology plays an integral role in education. Some Mumbai preschools offer school parent app, which serve as valuable tools for parents. These apps facilitate communication between parents and preschools and can be particularly beneficial for language development:
1. Language Resources
Parent apps often provide access to language resources and learning materials that parents can use at home to support their child's language development. These resources include interactive games, reading materials, and pronunciation guides.
2. Progress Updates
Parents can receive real-time updates on their child's language development progress through the app, allowing them to celebrate milestones and address any concerns promptly. This close monitoring ensures that language development remains a priority.
3. Communication with Teachers
Parent apps enable easy communication with teachers, fostering a collaborative approach to language development. Parents can discuss strategies to support their child's language skills at home and receive guidance on addressing specific linguistic challenges.
Selecting the Right Preschool in Mumbai
When selecting a preschool in Mumbai, parents should consider the following factors related to language development:
1. Multilingual Curriculum
Look for preschools in India that embrace a multilingual curriculum to provide a well-rounded linguistic education. A diverse language environment is conducive to holistic language development.
2. Literacy Resources
Inquire about the availability of reading materials and literacy resources within the school to encourage a love for reading and language exploration. A well-stocked library or reading corner can make a significant difference in fostering a reading culture.
3. Communication Channels
Check if the preschool uses a school parent app or similar technology to keep parents informed about their child's language development and overall progress. Transparent and efficient communication channels ensure that parents are actively involved in their child's linguistic journey.

Conclusion: Building Language Foundations
Language development in Mumbai preschools is a multifaceted journey that extends beyond the ABCs. It encompasses the richness of multilingualism, effective communication, cognitive growth, and social interaction. By embracing various approaches to language development and leveraging technology tools like school parent apps, preschools in Mumbai prepare children for a lifetime of linguistic success. When selecting a preschool, look for one that prioritizes multilingualism, offers a rich literary environment, and promotes effective communication between parents and teachers. With these foundations in place, young learners in Mumbai embark on a lifelong adventure of language and learning, equipped with the skills they need to thrive in a diverse and dynamic world.
