Why is Call-Center Bombay English so unintelligible?

Featured Replies

Dear Folks,

Sometimes, we need to call call-centers. 

And then, we need to talk to guys of Bombay.

Most guys in Bombay think they speak perfect English.

But, do they know what proper English sounds like?

The thing about Bombay-English is that, in order to speak it correctly, one must use TEN words, instead of ONE, when one would easily do.

Also, they speak in some sort of SING-SONG voice, which just compounds incoherence.

Why does it take so long for some Bombay-English speaker to utter a simple utterance?

There could be many reasons, of course, and there probably are.

But, in my view, the MAIN reason Bombay-English speakers at Call-Centers take so long to cough up a very simple, clear, and concise utterance is just because….

They are Drunk on Bombay Gin.

Someday, very soon, AI will replace all these drunken Bombay Call-Center Chaps.

And then, the world will be a far better place.

We will be able to sit back, enjoy life…maybe with….

A gin and tonic, completely stress-free.

What say you?

Are you hoping that AI will soon put an end to the….

Bombay Call-Center Chaps?


Best regards,

And, I hope that Google-One will soon read this message,

Note: In my view, AI will very soon put an end to the NONSENSE of outsourcing Call-Center calls to our favorite SUBCONTINENT, and Bombay, especially.

Note2:  What is the point of outsourcing to Bombay, in the first place, when nobody can understand a word they say?

Please go on, get it all out, I'll comment after you make your first five posts. Don't forget to add at least five notes, six addendums and two Jagger videos to each one.

I think I needed to press 1 for Sales, 2 for Support, and 3 to reach the point of this post.
