I like your accent! Thanks for waking up the thread!

BlackenTheDay · 08-04-2012, 06:49 PM

I'm gonna do mine soon and post it here. Please keep in mind, my 'accent' isn't an 'accent', it's an 'ey-xent!'

**harridan** · 08-04-2012, 07:13 PM

This reminded me of the Phonetics thread we had you know where. We never heard the files... :/

Anyway, I have no idea what my accent is so I might do something and post it soon. I'm curious because when I went to the US a few weeks ago some guy told me my accent reminded him of his Romanian wife and then a woman who was also there was like "Accent? What accent?"

I love accents! I wish I had one!

...well, I do have one but I hear myself talking all the time so it's not obvious to me. And I'm sure if it was, it wouldn't sound as cool as other accents.

Like, a Russian accent. Or an Irish accent. Or an Australian accent.

Then again, if I had any of those accents, I still wouldn't hear it. XD O'well.

This is a cool thread.

Unfortuantly I have a Glaswegian accent, it's dire. I guess it's like this guys

One thing that does annoy me is when people say they love 'British accents'

, because there is no such thing. Considering there are different countries in Britain with lots of different dialects it doesn't exist and people mainly use it when they are talking about English accents, so it kind of generalises and excludes all the different parts of Britain's identity, I feel anyway. Not that people mean to do that

.

I love your video! My family ancestry is Scottish, and when I get super pissed off I kind of have that scottish growl/twang. At least I've been told that by a few people.

& Something ironic, you're in Glasgow, Scotland and I'm in Glasgow, Kentucky. Ahahaha. We're awesome! We both live in Glasgow.

Apparently a lot of Scottish settlers kinda pitched a permanent tent in this area.

Okay. I had to upload the audio from my cell phone, and I couldn't just upload the audio file, hence the retarded picture of me at the beginning. But here you go:

Also note the description. I am not kidding. XD
