After hearing their name, dialect and seeing their mannerisms, yes, I can tell. Several other comments mentioned there is an overrepresentation of specific groups from India, within the US, so I am attuned to recognize that group as "Indian heritage".
These things are rarely as simple as looking at someone visually from afar or in a lineup and making a complete decision.

- vmception 5y ago> overrepresentation of specific groups from India, within the US, so I am attuned to recognize that group as "Indian heritage" the ambiguity is practically nonexistent in the US so the circumstance wouldn't come up I acknowledged that You’re not going to get more than that (unless I’m wrong about how represented those other groups are, that could be an insightful conversation I’m willing to have)
