You slabbering? I'll knock yer ballix in mucker, scared of naffin I am!
but I would just say I have a plane southern accent.
No, that's Mary Poppins darling ..
"Bert, what utter nonsense. Why do you always complicate things that are really quite simple. Give me your hand please Michael. Don't slouch. One, two..."
... and fly
I loooove that film
Infact, people are quite taken-a-back when I say I'm from Southend.
I say grarse and barth and larf like any other Southener.
Ditto - but without the Scottish accent and I can't roll my rrrrrrr's.
I tend to pick up accents quickly though and people (friend's from home) are continuing to pick me up on it. :banghead:
I don't know if its because almost everyone I know has generic nondescript southern accent, but I find most accents really hot. Probably just because they're different.
I have a weegie accent too- the joys!:thumb:
my boyfriend once described me as a 'slightly posh brummie' :yeees:
Everyone says I have a posh voice when I talk to them . I don't even have a proper accent. I used to say like, bAth and cAstle and grAss and stuff, but now I say barth and carstle and grars and it makes me sad .
It is the proper way, it is how it's spelt and all.:p
I do pronounce one as 'wun' instead of 'won'. And I say 'skewl' for school too. Apparently that's a bit scummy. Oh well.
It all gets a bit strange at uni though.
The Southampton / Winchester accent is horrible. Like the Saaaf L'nd'n one but more pikey.
The Bristol accent on the other hand is fantastic but too silly to be taken remotely seriously.
Hybrid .. i like that word ...
A hybrid, is that what they say ?
I've never detected anything Newcastlish about your accent, no idea about the Manc accent thing though ;p . . .but it goes without saying at work you will change the way you speak. I love what accent you do have though, damn well easy to understand what your saying too
It's a bit camp, for some reason. I'm not too fond of the campness. :grump:
