To mark the inclusion of an Indian English pronunciation model for the
first time in the OED, accompanied by several hundred audio
recordings, the team involved in the project have produced a video to
talk about it.

Dr Catherine Sangster, Oxford University Press, Divyanshi Shaktawat,
University of Glasgow, and Dr Matthew Moreland, University of East
Anglia, discuss:

- Why Indian English pronunciations were added
- The project’s journey and considerations along the way: what was
needed for the model
- The approach to naturalization and code-switching
- What the core model (and its extensions for languages spoken in
India) looks like, with examples
- The implications for other English varieties
