Wow. I haven't been back to L.A. in 12 years and everything changes! First the San Fernando Valley changed from Jewish to Korean, and now the Iranians are all Persians?I used to agree with that statement until I started running into Iranians and Iranian-Americans who wanted to be called Persian. It seems that most of the Iranians and Iranian-Americans living in Los Angeles prefer to be called Persian and I think that is switching everybody in Southern California back towards calling Iranians Persians.
I had a bunch of friends, neighbors and co-workers from Iran and they all called themselves Iranians. And they were Fars, not ethnic minorities.I am guessing that the Iranians Expats from minority groups would prefer being called "Iranian" to being called "Persian".
Most educated Indians are fluent in English. Indian English is recognized as a distinct dialect but it's modeled after the British English they were taught during the occupation. Much faster than American English, the way the Brits speak, but it also has a more compressed tonal range, a substratum from the Indian languages. And they've figured out that prepositions have virtually no meaning, so some Indians pick them somewhat randomly just to fulfill their primary purpose of parsing the sentence.Normally Indians fluent in English don't have American accents.
You'd be surprised which American TV programs are broadcast in other countries. For a few years there was a stunningly good soap opera called "Santa Barbara." The doctors and lawyers actually spoke like college graduates and the plotlines were a cut above the usual melodrama. Naturally it couldn't get an audience here, competing with "General Hospital" and "The Young and the Restless" with their recycled stories and their dead characters coming back to town with their heads sewn back on. Its male star, A. Martinez, took a trip to Europe and every time he walked down the street he was mobbed by fans yelling, "Look! It's Cruz Castillo from 'Santa Barbara'!"When I found out he had never been to the USA I asked him how he came to be so fluent and why did he have an American accent. He told me it was because he watched every episode of the American television show "Friends". I guess he got the "friends" show on DVDs.
He must be the only one. She drives the rest of us bonkers.What caused the fallout between you and Sandy? You kept telling me she was an intelligent lady...
