pickThis was a good one to listen to because I never would have known the proper pronunciation of many of the words myself. The author really dove headfirst into the culture and experiences of the country. I really enjoyed this one and learned a lot.
aartichapati I have a feeling the person reading the audiobook did not pronounce the words correctly, either, judging by her name :) 5y
bookishbitch @aartichapati I would think someone getting paid to read a book then does research on the pronunciation of any words contained within. Otherwise people would complain. Plus she sounded comfortable with the words to my ear. Names don't really tell you a person's background. 5y
CarolynM I really enjoyed this when I read it a few years ago. You may be interested in the book her partner wrote about this period in their lives![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)

bookishbitch @CarolynM I will have to check that out. Thanks! 5y
aartichapati @bookishbitch yes, it‘s very possible! I have listened to multiple books with narrators who mispronounce Indian words and names all the time, that‘s all. 5y
bookishbitch @aartichapati Gotcha! 5y
