Life with the Locals
... pronounce the words the best. I'll credit it that to not having any particularly strong accent and speaking Gujarati regularly at home. It was quite funny hearing people with thick British, Australian, German, etc. accents trying to pronounce the words. She made them repeat the words continuously until she was satisfied too.
