English read in an Indian Accent for Hotels.com
Case Study
Arthi-I recorded the voice-over in English with an Indian accent after an exhaustive selection process as the client was very particular about the timbre of the voice required.
Accents from further afield
So if you are trying to communicate with a certain region within a foreign country, it is vital to first identify the accent or dialect spoken in that region.
At Matinée Multilingual we have a vast database of translators and voice talent built up over 30 years working in the industry. We can solve almost any accent or dialect challenge.
Can a foreign accent be learnt or mimicked?
This problem gets worse if we are being asked to produce recordings in a foreign language, but in a regional accent. We don’t speak the language, and we definitely can’t differentiate between different regional accents within that language. Not many people can.
So our advice is always to use a trusted voice talent through a reputable voice-over agency, who has a track record of producing voice recordings in their own language. They can then be trusted to produce recordings in English but with the accent of their country, with very little possibility of offending the listener.

I use Matinee a lot for subtitling projects
I use Matinee for a lot of subtitling projects and they never fail to meet the deadlines. Great customer service and fast responses. Well done to the entire team.
Jade Burnell
Friendly and efficient service
The speed of response, and friendly, efficient service from all staff was quite exceptional. Matinee particularly stands out by putting the customer’s needs first, even when the job is relatively small and a bit of a technical challenge. I would strongly recommend Matinee for any subtitling work.
