Why would that be offensive?
Nigerian accent can’t be worse than Indian accent, right? Right? -
For real it's totally normal. When i got back from canada i had the french canadian accent. When i lived in france I spoke like a french person. In Belgium im speaking like a country guy. You adapt to who you talk to.
I have an irish accent in english just because i lived there for 2 years -
@Lensflare
that would've been funny, if it wasn't coming from a German (you)
Hollywood doesn't even cast actors in movies who speak proper German accent. They cast a non-German person who speaks in a British accent.
Talk about worse accents now, lol.

@SidTheITGuy u know i dont speak german at all, right?
i can say BITECHEN, DANKECHEN which is enough to buy stuff, but that's pretty much it.
I have a french accent with irish vocabulary -
Lensflare2137918h@SidTheITGuy don’t make fun of ze German accent! Zat is not funny! Learn to pronounce "o" as a short vowel, not stretched to infinity, zen we can talk!

Welp, I've got a Nigerian client now, and I'm afraid that I'll start catching their accent, the more I speak to them on calls, and soon enough it will reflect in my speech, going from Indian accent to Nigerian accent.
Would it be considered offensive if that really happened?
