Frunk Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 [quote name='Smeargle' timestamp='1308564922' post='5296962'] I'm Australian. Which somehow people from the US get confused with British. I mean, sure we sound similar, but not that much. D< Oh, and for everyone that thinks we say, "Shrimp on the barbee" or w/e, we don't. :[b][/b]P [/quote] Particularly as we call them "prawns". Crocodile Dundee is awesome though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
This Account is Unplayable Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 I'll never understand how they can confuse a British accent with an Aussie accent... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cody Frost Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 I've heard English, French, Italian and German accents (mainly because my teachers are from Britain, Italy, France AND Germany *thumbs up! XD*) and I have to say that the best accent I've heard so far is my world geography teacher's accent (german with a splash of american marine goodness :3 = pure epicness) It was never a dull moment when he was talking XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hexcalibrate Posted June 20, 2011 Report Share Posted June 20, 2011 they say every language gives birth to a different accent, so what does a klingon accent sound like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bury the year Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 [quote name='shadowserpent' timestamp='1308416994' post='5292743'] I have a lovely hick accent :U yes so if I go up to Boston, I am made fun of when they really sound weird. I like Jamaican accents. I can sound like a Jamaican. [/quote] *takes offense to that one* I live just west of Boston, so I don't have the full one. It always ends up making me sound half-drunk, considering my speech is always rather fast and slurred to start. D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kizzi Posted June 22, 2011 Report Share Posted June 22, 2011 [quote name='SSxMINI LUCAS' timestamp='1308394532' post='5292096'] I love English accents. People either sound really intelligent or sophisticated(maybe even reasonable) or just stupid. For example English people can be hilarious. I have a friend on BO that lives in the UK so when I play with him we get matched with English people... ANd they're so serious about the game its funny! I mean they rage soooo easily! "f*** yay" instead of YOU. It seriously sounds like that! [u]Now. I mean NO offense to ANYONE. And I don't speak for EVERYONE.[/u] Tell me about your experiences with people that have their native accents... [/quote] From my experience, English accents people tend to run into are either normal or "ya fookin dikked". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marisa Kirisame-ze Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 My mom has a semi-British accent. It's honestly derived from the Dutch (because she grew up in Indonesia, and the Dutch reigned over it) but it so sounds British. Because of this, I also have a semi-accent since I'm used to hearing the way she talks and adapted it to my speech. My friends love it xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
