Does your country have weird dialects or accents? What do they sound like? Why are they different? What difference do they mean to you?

In Canada we have a lot but I can say probably the weirdest is the Newfoundland accent

it's socially acceptable to openly laugh at people who unironically speak bavarian or swabian accent.
>>
>>51754747
same here and in the netherlands with limburgers
>>
>>51754747

What do they sound like? Why are they made fun of? Are Austrian or Swiss accents considered 'bad' accents too?
>>
Canadian people seem to forget that FL is actually part of Canada, and you all love to call us in Québec ''inbred'', but it's much, much worse in NL.

Vid related, typical folks from Newfoundland

I thought Bavaria was the wealthiest part of Germany?

Nah Quebec french is disgusting
>>
>>51754747

I thought Bavaria was the most important part of Germany? Isn't it the part of Germany everyone thinks of when they hear "Germany"? Pretzels, lederhosen, oktoberfest, etc?
>>
Inland North (Great Lakes) accent, partly because its speakers furiously deny that it exists.

Austrians and Bavarians sound like hillbillies to other German speakers.
When Arnold's movies are dubbed into German, they get a different guy to do his lines.

True northern accent (with northern quality video)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urnwl7PM-tg

South east accent

Alsacian accent
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ye8xUY68seI

Those are the strongest in metropolitan France
>>
>>51755650

When they come over to North America they speak the same way with English!
>>
>>51755761

How did Hitler rise to being #1 in Germany if he sounded like a "hillbilly"?

Also considering Arnold speaks English of course a different guy would do his lines for a German dub.
>>

He speaks German too...
>>
>Does your country have weird dialects

Yes, English
>>
>>51755952

Not in his movies though. He speaks English in his movies.
>>
>>51755914
>How did Hitler rise to being #1 in Germany if he sounded like a "hillbilly"?
He trained himself to lose his Austrian accent, the way many American Southerners try to lose their "drawl" when they enter media or politics.

>Also considering Arnold speaks English of course a different guy would do his lines for a German dub.
Arnold is a native German speaker, m8.

>>51756023
Yes, but instead of having him simply dub his own lines into German, they get other voice actors to do it.
>>
North east Lithuania has very weird accent.It's almost like Latgalian dialect in Latvia.Sometimes hear it on the TV.

Other dialects throughout the country are fine just have slight funny accent
>>
>>51755650

Acadian French is also pretty weird

I've always found Midwestern accents a bit strange, but not unpleasant. Yat sounds absolutely terrible, and New Orleans should feel bad for having birthed it.
>>
>>51754504
Mine meme slav accent

>>51756086

Well no shit. Arnold is a big name American superstar who demands American superstar-tier wages. His net worth is $100-$200 million dollars. He has no need to look for work as a German dubber, ffs. He's not that desperate. Have you seen a German dub? They are shit.

Here is a German dub:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0tvfbMslSI

Why the hell do you think Arnold Schwarzenegger would want to start making German dubs? Just because "he can speak German" doesn't mean being a German dubber is the greatest goal he can aspire too. Let the Germans make German dubs. Let Americans make hit movies and television for Germans to dub,
>>
>>51756339
Are you bored, or just stupid?
>>
>>51756370

I'm right and you know it. Did you watch that German dub btw? You really think that is what Arnold Schwarzenegger would like to do if only the Germans didn't think his accent sounded too hillbilly? Really?
>>
travellers/pikeys have a specific accent. you can get a knacker that spent his whole life in Dublin and he'll have the same accent that a knacker who lived his whole life in Cork or Donegal

Boston and Jersey accents are crimes against linguistics desu. Southern accents can be anything from pleasant to unintelligible nonsense depending on what state you're in.
>>
>>51756370

Arnold Schwarzenegger got ~30 million dollars to film Terminator 3. You really really really think that the guys in charge of the German dub would be willing to shell out that kind of money if only his accent didn't sound so hillbilly? Hmm.
>>
>>51756528
Or a knacker in Dublin vs a knacker in Birmingham. They all sound the fucking same, even when from different countries.
>>
Scanian, Värmlänning and Stockholmer.
Two first sound like hillbilly and unintelligent, and Stockholmer sounds gay and feminine.

Bohuslän and Norrland are the most masculine and respected dialects of wealth etc.

I only meant Masculine with norrland and bohuslän with wealth and masculine. I should have typed that, thanks.

He actually asked the producers if he could do the german dub of Terminator 2. They turned him down because his farmer's Styrian accent would sound dumb coming from a robot from the future.
>>
Different dialect for every single fjord, island and valley. Many are almost impossible to understand for 90% of the country. Some parts imported the speech-disorder Rs from the continent as well.
>>
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIZgw09CG9E

Gives an idea as to what American colonists and 17th century Englishman might have sounded like.
>>
>>51754504
Newfies sound like Waterford people, it's hilarious. It's a clownish accent here too.


There are too many accents in Ireland to get into, the funniest is probably Cavan
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSYazCng4nM

The most distinctive is probably Belfast.
