Type how you speak

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
Pretty self explanitory just make ita conversational thread, but type it how you would speak it. Spell it like you would say it, if you say it differently. Put in all the uh, um, like and whatever. I pretty much say the words like the dictionary says my main downfall being I cant put together a sentence to save my life. But, yeah, so far this paragraph is just how I talk. I never got that about dictionaries. I can understand accents from when its not your first language, but the same language having words said differently, so differently. I never understood. The dictionary only reads one way. So I wanna see the differences.

So, hows everybodys day.

    When I speak to everyone else Today has been a long day. Can't b'bothered anymore. My arm is sore and I can't wait to get out of this hell hole called work. This weekend should be good. Going into town on a major shopping spree. Why has your day not been good?

    Most of the time I waiver between the two of them though!

    Lol you talk like you're from Ayrshire :razz:

    I usually talk normally (just my accent that lets me down ;( ) But even when I'm trying to be really polite there are some words i just can't say "properly":

    I would like to go - Ah would like tae go

    Most of the time I am well spoken though, I don't tend to speak badly unless I'm drunk and/or with friends. Oh and when I'm with people who are, well, common. I sound so up myself there :(

    I don't think I speak any different than I write, except in english that I can't pronounce "world". I'd either say "worrrld" or "wold".

    I've been told I speak too fast (I've realised it myself too) so I suppose that means I don't use punctuation correctly when speaking unless I'm reading something.

    I really couldn't type how i speak. I don't have much of an accent. But i can type how people from my area talk....

    Ay up me duck, allrate?
    which would be something like...''hiya darling, all right?''
    other words would be...
    over = ovva
    there = theear
    down = daarn

    I really don't prownownce things very well, and I tendtorushwhatI'msayin, because I have a slight social anxiety.

    Some people say I speak really posh, for someone 'oo lives so close to Plymuff - I'm not the slightest bit swilly. I say barth and parth and graarss. Then again, I drop my t's a lot, and say crappy things like 'innit', and 'lyk' :p.

    Think of 'ow Pete from BB speaks.. he doesn't really have an accent, duzzee? Though withou' the tourettes :D.

    i do nae really care how i talk. i tend to just steal bits from other accents/dialects anyway for my own random style of talking. I luv shoving the word random in anywhere i can. I love talking to peole from newcastle on the phone in work cos i tend to pick up bits of their accents and tis quite scary.

    Yeeeeeeeah. I actually talk the same as I type, which is odd. I....ummm.....say ummmmm a lot more but generally I pronounce all my words properrrrrly, although I do roll my rrrrrrs on occasion. I elongate some words too. Mostly yeeeaaaahhhhh.

    I have an awesome voice and accent too.
