Native English speakers, what are your opinions about foreign accents? Which accents are funny, charming, sexy, ugly and so on? |
||||||||
|

Gente, quanto vorrei poter comunicare con voi in italiano.. Sarebbe sicuramente molto meglio, mi piacerebbe davvero poter capire tutti i topics e rispondere subito alla vostre domande senza impiegarci troppo tempo. Però sono davvero contento di essere migliorato nel tempo; all'inizio facevo veramente fatica a capire cosa dicevate, ora mi trovo molto meglio, riesco a comprendere quasi tutto ma ancora mi manca qualcosa per essere un perfetto English Speaker :) |

ukranian chicks ......... especially when they dont know english for shit and are trying to order a half caf cinnamon dolce from me....... |

hmm thats a good question-i like most accents. when i was in oz nobody could understand me,and also in new york. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If IDM was an accent it would propably be all distorted and glitchy |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the icelandic language and accent is possibly the greatest there is. the lancashire accent comes a close second :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha,thats good-im as lancashire as it gets:D |
||||||||
|

and your almost as old as me |

presuming we're discussing people speaking english - yeah i love dutch accents. really amusing. french accents are great. italian accents i don't like when they're speaking english, but it's a joy to listen to them speaking italian. i really like most northern english accents.. can't stand the Cork accent (like anyone else from ireland who's not from cork), and most american accents, especially girls' accents, really grate on my ears. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and speaking of the which, it's strange: we had this phonetics lecturer from Russia who spoke in a perfect BBC English accent when speaking English, and then in this completely different accent when she'd use Russian words as examples. same with our German lecturer, who apparently learned english in England. her voice would completely change once she stopped speaking german. quite startling. |

some considered dutch accents to be sexy too i highly doubt it |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
actually i find the british and irish accents the most amusing. I wanna talk like that :C |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I didn't like American accents, then I started liking them. Strange. I like to hear all accents, though. Nothing bothers me much. Actually, germans speaking english is sometimes tough to handle. I met some guys from Holland that sounded almost American. They must teach accents too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It really depends on the person speaking, though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
talking about things funny |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
The only accent I don't like is SOUTHERN accents. It just makes people sound so ignorant, but thats more of a mental thing that I have to deal with. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Getting a bit obscure, I love Jewish New Yorker Jackie Mason kinda voice :) How out of place I'd look with such an accent. Northern Irish is nice. Geordie accent is legendary... Yea Dutch accent is slightly amusing as is South African - both a tad quirky! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I used to find scottish girls saying 'crisps' a turn on. I've grown beyond that stage now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I find southern accents very soothing. Depends. A slight southern lilt to a voice is wonderful. Maybe you mean a stereo typical red neck accents. Or hillbilly accents. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
one of my neighbours is from newcastle and talks geordie. my dad has had whole conversations with him and when i ask him "what did he say?" he has often said "i have no idea". i don't know if that is because my dad is trying to be funny or if there's just no way understanding the guy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I quite like women w/ southern accents. Adorable! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And on the topic I should mention that our local Boston/Eastern MA. accent is like nails on a chalkboard to my ears. Yeah ...the whole 'pahk the caaah in hauvuhd yahd' type deal. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah... boston talk is annoying... i had a car worker that spoke that way... i find mexicans with a southern twang (the ones in texas) wierd. i ran into a couple of those when i was in the military. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah i guess it depends on who's talking and how much of it there is. The Boston accent doesn't bug me because I grew up in that area of the country. I also enjoy the stereotypical jew and brooklyn accents. "hey yous. yeah, yous guys ova dere. Come ere. How's your mudda?" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehe, icelandic and icelandic accent might be ok but you should hear old icelanders speak english, who didn't grow up learning it from tv like my generation did...most consonanst are way too hard, the R's are way too hard similar to spanish/scottish R's and they don't distinguish between V and W. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
like petter solberg... |
||||||||

|
not even close |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
just to clarify. what I meant was people from england moving to norway, learning the language, but speak with an accent. basically the reverse of what this thread is supposed to be about. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
do you get a lot of english moving over there |
||||||||
|
