The last couple of days I've come to realize that there are a lot people who are having a real problem understanding what I'm saying. Given that Indians are soon going to be the most populous (and likely most powerful) group of people in the world I think it is my duty to educate people who don't understand my accent.
1) First, for an Indian, V or W really doesn't matter. For all we care, we could get rid of one of them, and the 1 billion of us wouldn't lose a second of sleep.
2) When I (or we or "ve") say “I'm giving a test,” I actually mean “I'm taking a test.” I could argue about it but it really doesn't matter because in the end majority wins, right?
3) I say “my ears are paining” when it’s cold outside, and I have been too cheap (I prefer lazy) to invest in some 180s. Come on you get the message. Saying “my ears are hurting” doesn't convey it any better.
That's all for today, although your education is by no means complete.

The punctuation and grammar in this post were outstanding. Who's your editor?
I don't understand what you are saying.
