Indian families you see on TV are not really us! Meep. Though Goodness Gracious Me is very funny.
LOL! Gotcha!
In fact, that makes me remember an article about how in a way the most realistic American family on TV was The Simpsons. So it was a show where sometimes people from other countries were like, "Wow, an American family that seems more like mine."
I'm glad to know there is no language of "Indian," because it sounded really strange to me to say it. Guess it's the same thing with "our" Indians--Native Americans I mean. Many nations, no one language.
I frankly think LotR is a lot more realistic in some ways than some movies. The subtitled Elvish, for example. As opposed to accented English. :D
LOL! Can you imagine them coming up with an Elvish accent--I mean, other than saying, "Okay, you elves are going to speak in a very formal English accent."
