India has a diverse range of languages and accents. Moreover, people from different parts of the country have different accents of speaking the same language as well. For example, a person from Gujarat state tends to speak English in an altogether different accent than a person from Karnataka state. The accents add the local flavor when heard/spoken and I want to create the same flavor in writing. Instead of simply writing: "...._in typical Gujarati acccent_...", I want to add something more that gives _that_ flavor to a conversation, but I am stuck here. How to do a fair description of accent? And Is it even possible to describe an accent instead of just mentioning so much so that even the person who is unaware of that accent get to know it?
