Gray Beard Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 If a woman is yelling at you and belittling you, it seems more natural if she has an Irish or Scottish accent. 16 minutes ago, SlimShady'sGhost said: Scottish then Irish And I'll bet ... you would still get tired of the woman for talking ALL day 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HopsGuy Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 One of my oldest friends moved to Australia ~30 years ago. We talk on occasion on VOIP. His accent isn’t full on “Crocodile Dundee” but you’d never think he was ever an American. It’s kinda funny when he uses words I hadn’t heard in that context. Been a while. I should call him.

Rocket94 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 I encounter accents from around the world where I work. Accents from India, Russia, China, the middle east and Spanish. Funny thing is, everyone speaks English...even amongst themselves! Americanization on display! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Buffalo Joe Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Before I moved to Texas, I loved the southern accent. Now it's whatever to me. My wife was born and raised in Texas, both of her parents had pretty strong southern accents, but she fought against it growing up and doesn't really have one.
