Haha, sorry:P And I really, really don't have a posh accent either, it's just a typical geordie one:/ Depending on how I feel, I *might* re-post something, when I stop being a coward.
But you so have to post your accent! I've jut realised I have no idea where in England you are! You're not cockney, are you? That would be strange.
Aww, Geordie accents are so nice though! ^_^ And don't worry about the cowardice; I've chickened out twice already when I promised I'd do it before :/ Maybe I'll do it at the weekend, or whenever my house is next empty :)
I'm from Gloucestershire, but mine's such an odd accent. My parents come from opposite sides of the country, Nottinghamshire and Devon, and sound as if they're speaking different languages their accents are so different. The result is that my accent sounds like a bizarre tour of English regional dialects compressed into a voice that isn't very expressive even when I'm enthusiastic :/ And then there's my stutter, which makes matters no better :( If I could change one thing about me it would be my voice :P
:O! If you have the accent I think you might have, you seriously have to post something:P! Do you sound like the stereotypical "farmer", because a friend of mine from devon has that accent, and it's literally the best accent I have *ever* heard!
Oh, I SO wish I had the full-on farmer! There's a proper accent :D
I've got a few hints of farmer in there definitely, but they're mostly hidden underneath my higher percentage of posh-ness :(
If you want to gauge how confused my accent is: you know how most southerners always use long vowels (as in "Grarss") and most northerners use short vowels (as in "GrAss")? Most people are more-or-less consistent about which way they pronounce words like "grass", "pass", "glass" etc. but every time I come to a word that ends with "-ass", I have to think for at least five seconds so my brain can work out what my own pronunciation is :P Even my own brain can't seem to work out how I talk, it's such a jumble :)
Hehe, when I get the chance I'll try and record something :) I can't do it right now, what with it being past midnight and everything, but hopefully by the weekend I'll have something sorted for you to laugh at :)
EDIT: Holy macaroni, you really did change your colour back exactly on time! Yellow suits you xD This conversation now has an uncomfortably rhubarb-and-custard-like colour scheme going on :D
Haha, I wanna go back to my old colour, but I told Nora that I'd join her opposition against the purples, which didn't work out well, since I'm a day too late:P!
I will look forward to hearing your posh farmer accent:D And don't worry, you'll probably end up laughing at mine as well, I sound about 4 year old and just generally stupid.
Is it normal voice/accent comparison
