Default The Hindi Language

I work with a lot of people from India. Is it just me or does Hindi not even sound like a language? It's all makka bakka babba happa makka habba pabba.

my favorite spoken language is persian, by far

my friend at college, gita, talked persian for me whenever i wanted her to

it sounded like a record player being played backwards
a lot like russian and hindi mixed together, which makes sense i guess

It's actually called Farcee (I think that's how it's spelled), but yeah, my friend speaks it fluently and it's really pretty. She spoke it to her bunny and it seemed really emotive and endearing.

I've always wondered what English sounds like to someone who only ever spoke/knew Cantonese or Hindi ...
