Good one on English by non-English speaking population and a very apt finishing line. Thanks for sharing the best tip for someone who wants to acquire a neutral accent. Another tip would be to focus on developing listening skills and mirroring skills. Learn this from children who speak an alien language within a short time!

Here's a post on which we had an excellent discussion on correcting a few of these negative patterns. [How to build an impressive vocab](https://www.citehr.com/448499-top-ways-build-impressive-vocabulary.html)

Dear All,
This is really a thought-provoking write-up and a radical thinking. In Sanskrit, it is said, 'he is wise who travels and learns other languages'. Why have a phobia of English? One can as well learn many Indian languages. That will increase confidence and also promote unity. However proud one is about his mother tongue, he will not progress unless he learns other languages.
