I have a thing for accents. accents are my downfall

'tis why I love James Spader so much

eh, I love the idea of a post yer accent thread (think there's one here already, but it's a bit out of date and a lot of the files don;t work)

but, it's a bit like meeting your heroes (ie: it can lead to disappointment), so I'm not sure I'm willing to cross that rubicon. if Shambles talks in a southwest accent I'm not sure what my reaction would be. if knockando speaks in a Scottish accent, I think I'll need to change my pants promptly after listening

I heart Sottish accents loads

PTCH's voice sample is still in my foobar playlist :o

That's a very good idea! I can't remember there being one in EADD while I've been here...
Maybe you should start one. Apparently I've a lovely accent and voice, despite being a Yorkshire-ist! ;)

Get on it like Shakespeare upon a sonnet Marmz mate!

Youve got a really gentle, soothing voice Noodle.

I have a retired teacher neighbour whos rather posh and insists on correcting my accent. Fucking insulting! Shes done it to my daughter too..

Having a London accent I would say 'winda' instead of 'window' or 'pillar' instead of 'pillow'. for example.

Cheeky mare!:sus:

Awww you're too kind Yellow <3 **blushes** {^_^}
I love your voice too :) It is slightly thick in Landanesque tones but yea it's lush :)
 
I said 'can I have a glass of warter* please?' and she went 'May I have a glass of waTer please'

fucking hell!


*without the t

London accents uniquely really are considered 'common'... and clearly just wrong to some apparently.


Thankyou Monsta aww.. I feel better now. :D
 
Haha I moved from Swindon to Shropshire when I was 11 and got the piss taken out of my accent all through school, apparently I talked posh.. just because I said "b-ar-th" and "c-ar-stle" not "b-ah-th" and "c-ah-stle".. hated it! Picked up a slight Sheffield twang after going to Uni there but now I'm back down south it's reverted back to it's former self.. I don't think I have an accent at all, think it's pretty neutral haha, wish it was more exciting..

Does anyone else find it weird hearing their own voice? Horrible!!
 
Only everyone Effie! My faux Londoner accent has rather worn off after uni. I don't know why people who live around London regularly have stronger London accents, especially in Essex. It's still there in the background, and I still insert Rs in all the right places, but I am probably a bit more well spoken since uni. I always like to ask northerners who take the piss to say banana and water, because more often than not they say banaRna or waRter. Plus their vowels are all over the shop and generally too bass-ey. "I don't nOOOU".

My wife informs me that I sounded a bit like a street urchin from Oliver Twist when we met.
 
Haha yeah it's pretty common isn't it, silly question..

I love the Bristolian accent. Might make an effort to pick it up :D gert lush!

Imo Their is no general Bristolian accent it depends what part of the city you were brought up people from Knowle west don't generally speak the same as folk from Clifton although i know what your saying.

Even in Bath which is much smaller people from Twerton have a distinctive accent which is different to folk from other parts of the city.
I've got a proper job WEst Country accent.
 
Not a fan of the west country accent (even though ive always lived here and have quite an accent,) is like the british version of american red neck yokels or something, sounds a bit shite

Woooooooooo friday =D
 
You're right, it's Friday. Not that anybody could tell, given the shocking absence of a Friday thread. What a disgrace.

Regarding accents, I appreciate most accents throughout Britain and Ireland on some level. Most people's voices are more distinct than they perhaps realise - you don't have to have a strong, broad regional accent to sound like you're from a particular region, and often people's ethnic backgrounds play a part, even a couple of generations down the line. It's interesting stuff. There's massive variation around here, some of which can be traced back to territorial skirmishes between Danes and Saxons, or even further in such cases.

I even ended up finding the Hull accent charming due to one particular woman, and that's something that I thought I'd never do. I tend to find (mostly) northern regional accents sexier these days (inasmuch as any accent could be described as intrinsically 'sexy'), whereas most of my girlfriends when I was younger were either posh or southern. Ultimately it depends on the person and what they're saying, however.
 
ha ha ! Goodmorning crew, hope everyone is doing ok! have a fantastic day, whatever you may be up to :)
