The sounds [w] and [v] may not be distinguished phonemically.
Aspirated and unaspirated stops are different phonemes.
Indian English may be syllable-timed rather than stress- timed like British and American, resulting in creating a staccato effect.http://youtu.be/vw6RgIf6epQ(0:47)

Served as the route of introduction for many native American words. e.g. Mississippi, Roanoke, Iowa
Spanish also had an influence on English language.e.g. canyon, ranch, stampede, vigilante
