Language at its purest best

It is always great to hear a language being spoken by its native speakers. 

This Diwali, we had guests from Allahabad, and it was a pleasure to listen to their chaste Hindi. 
Here's a sample: 

समाज में विभिन्न मान्यताएं प्रचलित रहती है और हर मनुष्यप्राणी अपने प्रकृती अनुसार उनका आचरण करता है

Compare and contrast this with mine: 

ये ताट में जो आयटम है , उसको भरलं वांगं बोलते है. इसको हिरवे किंवा जांभळ्या वांगे को रस्सा में भिजवके बनाते है.



Jokes apart, it's high time for me, living in Nagpur, to improve on my Hindi skills.
