Well, I cannot yet immitade a Dublin accent, that'll take a few more years of living here. But I can give you an example of my mother dialect, fraenkisch German:

"Braeugn mae nuch a Aamala Marmalaadn oddae soellerd mae an Honich nehma, woss maandsn?"

Which one? I'm in south Florida. On any given night, you can hear a dozen different accents at a minimum, and that's just from the different islands. (And a suggestion--never tell a Jamaican he sounds Haitian. They don't take it well.)

In Cleveland, we have no accent save for the bland, clear intonations of the Standard American pronunciation. No real dialect and no local words, except for maybe "pop" used in place of "soda".

Dude, we talk like that here. Its totally sweet. Back home, in West Michigan, we usually talk English pretty good. You know, a few things here and there. --- You wanna pop? Yeah, I got some in the garage. Its frozen though. My dialect aien't so special, because people can understand us. Stuff like that. You know how it is. I'm going down to the ovals, so I'll see you 'round. Later.

- "So, where was it again you stayed that year?"
- "USA. Red Oak, Iowa."
- "Oh, Iowa! HaHa! [insert stupid Iowa joke here]"

Yeah, well, that would have been way too easy...

And I for one certainly can't, even though I tried to read it out loud (which helps with accents). But I'm not a native speaker, so I'm off the hook. :D

ETA: Actually, on a closer look, I think all that it is is that they can't pronounce the "th"? As in:

Man 1: Hey lad, they don't do that there, though, do they though? You know what I mean, like?
Man 2: No, like, they don't, though, do they, mate?

Of course, they could be just as well talking about the weather in the Philippines, for all I know. :p

Aha! Excellent deduction, well done. Have some karma :cool:

I'm from Liverpool in England and, indeed, no-one there (dere?) says the 'th' sound for words like then, there, though. Although (aldough) not for words like Thursday. That mutates into Fursday. Well, actually, it mutates into Furzdee. Because we don't say the endings to words properly either. Face it, my dialect and accent is a nightmare for the rest of my countrymen, let alone non-native speakers!!! :D

My accent is called 'scouse' and here's how to speak scouse (here's how ter teech yerself scouse)


*th becomes D but not in words like Thursday which are pronounced with a F

*Drop the 'g' from all words like running, throwing, sitting, hiding, but not from words like king

*You MUST adopt a harsh guttural back of the throat noise when pronouncing the letter K (it's a lot like the G or H sound in Dutch)

*the vowels ou together become 'er' as in teach yourself scouse (teach yerself scouse)

*Roll your letter 'r' e.g. yerrrr, rrrrright

*double t becomes a double rolled r

*try to get the accent high-pitched and in the back of your mouth/throat

Now that you've got the accent mastered, all you have to do now is learn all the dialect words!!!

- snip scouse lesson -
Thanks for the lesson!:) I should be able to do most of that. The guttural thing and the "in the back of your mouth/throat" should be easy, the former because I know it from Swiss-German, the latter because my own Southern German accent is just like that (a good friend from way up north actually ends up making gagging noises every time he tries do my accent. And no, not on purpose.:p)
I'll fail at rolling the r, though. Dammit.

British accents have really been growing on me, I must say. Pretty cute on a guy. :D Of course, I can't tell them apart for anything. I remember my English teacher telling us about the "ho' wa'er bo'le" thing where you don't say the "t" - cockney? And I remember how eternally grateful I was for the subtitles in "Billy Elliot". :p

You'll tell Scouse apart, sure enough. It's barely recognisable as human speech, let alone English :D

Yep, cockneys do swallow (in scouse 'swaller') their Ts.

Why would I care whether a socialist would ever want to get it on with a capitalist? No self-respecting capitalist would ever want to be seen about town with a loony red :p

I see that your nation regards capitalist countries as somewhat immoral and corrupt. I agree that, yes, it's more immoral and corrupt - but it's much more naughty and nice too. Why don't you pop over to my Dominion and I'll show you how the girls are here? They're glamorous and they wear lipstick and stockings and everything ;) Much better than those dull, unstylish and tasteless overalls the girls in your Nomadic Republic wear.

To get it right, it sould be said Ne (as in nut) va (with the a as in Bat, Cat, or Hat) da (as in Dad). People who aren't from Nevada will say it as Ne (as in neigh) va (as in east coast pronunciation of aunt) da (as in dad).

Actually, when I say Nevada, I say it like Nuh (like 'huh') Vah (like 'dad') Duh (like 'huh'). Still not pronouncing it right, it seems, but better than most non-Nevadans.

oh sweet jesus you basically just described me *is disturbed* but i still like semi-feminine clothes. and my biceps arent too big. augh!

It's OK the cure is right here ...


Fortunately, there is one sure-fire cure!!! Approach your friendly neighbourhood capitalist. He'll take you round to the back of the bike-shed, hold you down and give you a solid and thorough capitalising!!! After that, you can hold aloft your lipstick, your sexy high-heeled shoes and your mascara and you can reclaim your femininity!!!


So, next time you're in London, send me a PM and I'll

take you round to the back of the bike-shed, hold you down and give you a solid and thorough capitalising!!!


And then all will be well :D

I have a completely american accent, but the kind that you can't really tell where I'm from. I could have been born in florida, california, nebraska, massachusetts, newjoysey, etc... but I was acctually born in Mass.


I can't really tell what type of accent anyone has. :\

you were born during mass? that must have been disruptive;)

SQ you must act fast to save your femininty!

I prescribe ...

* Exposure to cute, fluffy, wuffy kittens (awwww)
* the acquisition of shoes
* watching bad soap operas (Awwww, Colleen! i can't believe you ran off with the postman's brother, who's actually my dad's son in-laws's best friend! I'm sooo upset *starts crying*
* eating chocolate
* getting drunk on white wine spritzer
* tottering about while drunk on impractically high shoes while wearing a slinky number and carrying your glass at a dangerous tilt (really, there's nothing sexier ;) )

Impossible, as it's in Swedish and my accent is more of the wrong-pronounciation kind.

How'd you know I was gonna make Iowa jokes?
Its meth lab capital! :p

Actually we're #2 in meth labs...damn that Missouri...

About the dialect, Iowan is basically pronounced like normal English is spelled. No one really has an accent. We say "pop" instead of "soda" but that's about it.

Bout ye, big man? Yis all can just wind your necks in and saunter before I smack your bakes in. You're all just a pack of spides and hellions and the sooner you catch yoursels on the better. Ah'm sick to the backteeth of your whining and whinging and there's going to be a real barney here if you don't wise yoursels up and realise that we're all just out here for the craic and if you'd all just stop ripping the piss then things would be lalty. Got that, mucker?

Okay, my local dialect let's see:


Hi. My name is Dan. I live in Simi Valley, Califonia. That's right at the northern border of Los Angeles. I work in Hollywood on movies and TV shows.

I like steaks and girls. I also like the internet.

Sometimes, when I laugh really hard and I'm drinking milk, it comes out my nose.

There once was a man from nantucket...


Go Steelers! :)

How're yis. Me local accent's not the strongest, coming from North County Dublin in Ireland, and whatever difference there does tend to be in it is fairly tricky to get accross by text.

Dublin City accent's a little easier to do though:
Coz it goes kinda loike dis, y'know man? Buzzin' round town wit me mates, having a few gargles, before goin back to me mot, its great craic, righ'?
(translation: because it goes like this, you see? Traversing Dublin City, with several aquaintances, partaking in beverages, before returning home to my female partner, it is rather enjoyable, agreed?)

Loss of several points for failing to include the phrases 'fooking deadly', 'knackers' and 'grand, so'.
