And I can't help it! I hate my voice! And everyone else had really pretty, american accents, and then there's me with my stupid, harsh accent! I might do another one, maybe the IIN quote up at the top, since those who managed to hear my old clip have been really nice. Bleurgh, I'll see how I feel tomorrow.
Haha, out of all the things I thought my accent could be called, adorable certainly wasn't on the list:P! Thank you, that was very nice of you to say that:).
Should we expect to hear your voice anytime soon:P?
Haha, it is. You're a little bit evil, aren't you:P?!
Bleh, I think I'll probably end up doing it later on, when it's quiet and I'm alone. I'm thinking of doing the IIN quote after all, I should just stay away from things which are very American. That text seems like a funny choice, though, considering how true it is after yesterday. I guess I must be a "primitive" person.
Completely evil. :) And still not used to seeing you yellow. :P
Nobody else who posted has an accent like ours that suits itself to conversation but not to speeches. I don't know if you're up for doing this too but what I was thinking of doing was an English -> Manc dictionary, like I'd say something with the accent I first posted with and then I say it in my real Manc.
Like for: "Perchance, are you looking at me?" I'd say:
"Yeah, alright, knobby, wind yer neck in, eh?".
Between us, we could offer IIN a public service. I'm sure there's not many non-Brits that have heard, "Ahh, howay, pet, I'm ganning oot for a bit". Not that you probably ever say that. :P
I don't really like the yellow either, it's too chirpy. And as much as I don't want to say it...I liked the purple!
I agree with the conversation thing. The thing that makes my accent obvious is the words I use, if that makes sense? And with speeches you have to say certain words, instead of the ones you'd actually use in a conversation:/. My accent might have sounded noticeable on the clip, but the only thing which I thought had my accent was when "er" sounds turned into "a" sounds, although I'm not sure, since I can't notice my own accent obviously.
And I like that idea, but I don't think I say nearly enough Geordie phrases to do it. I could easily say things like "gannin' oot", but I never say them, so it would probably be a bit unnatural. I'd probably be able to do it with words though, like just saying a list of different words in my accent:).
Purple did really suit you but I'm not going to strong-arm you. You did your day and I've very proud of my purple army. :D
Yeah, I know exactly what you mean about the accent. It was funny to hear you drop the T in "altogether" because I do that too. The sweetest bit of yours was "dedicate" or *ahem* "dedikeet" and there is just so much dedikeeting going on in that speech.
I tried the Gettysburg Address in my real accent but it sounded like I was taking the pee. Dedicate undid me too because of the flatness of the "cate" bit in my accent. And liberty sounded like "libba e". At least there was no flat "u" sound. Me saying sunshine or monkey is so different than most, I get people doing impressions of me. :/
Hehe:D Do I really say dedicate differently:O?! I seriously can't even notice my accent in the word, like at all:L! We sometimes miss T out of words up here as well, which is why people say "wa'a" instead of water. It's really not surprising that some people can't understand us:P!
And how do you say sunshine and monkey? you should record it in your next clip:D!
Is it normal voice/accent comparison

I didn't think I had an accent or that there was an American accent... this project has already taught me something. Leave the country more often XD
It's tomorrow now. :)
