English Words in Devnagari (Hindi) Script

Few shop signs in Jaipur are written in the Roman alphabet, even when they contain English words - all the words are transliterated into Hindi. This is not a rare phenomenon in India, but I've never seen it on this scale anywhere else. I amused myself filming a few and pronouncing the words as written. English subtitles provided for those who can't understand (or hear, given the background noise) my accent.
