When do you put this word at the end of a sentence?

pic unrelated
>>
and what does it mean?
>>
What word are you talking about?
>>
>>52012623
''alright''. I've started to see it a lot used at the end of sentences which aren't questions.

Ex: ''Sounds like ___ alright!''
>>
I think it's like an assurance, to put emphasis on something.

Like, "that's a big dick alright" when someone pulls out a fat dong.

Or "those are some big tits alright" when a girl pulls out some fat tiddies.
>>
>>52012647
another way of saying "great!" or "awesome!" or like how you would say "aw yes!" to something good that happened
>>
>>52012669
How is it said though? In what tone?
>>
>>52012669
this too. this is like agreeing with someone when said that way
>>
>>52012694
I don't really know how to express tone through the internet.
>>
>>52012694
Lower tone on "right" than the rest of the or higher tone on "all" and even tone on "right"
"Alright" isn't a word, by the way. It's an imaginary portmanteau of "all right"

"Than the rest of the sentence" lol my bad
Do a vocaroo, let's see if you get it right.
>>
it can mean a lot of things, if youre so confused about it im not sure you would use it right anyhow
>>
>>52012779
It's something like

That's a fat ass [ALLright.]
Where caps = higher tone.

So saying it in a monotone voice wouldn't sound right? I don't plan on saying it because I'd sound silly since my accent isn't close to native at all but I was just curious. I didn't know that word could be used in a sentence other than ''It's/That's alright!'' or by itself (Alright!).

>>52012832
>Do a vocaroo
mfw, I cringe everytime I listen to my recorded voice. I wouldn't share it.
>>
>>52012925
Did you even listen to that to make sure it recorded properly before posting?
>>
>>52012965
what's wrong with it? i mean i might have emphasized the stress on the second syllable too much but other than that it's fine
>>
>>52012948
>I cringe everytime I listen to my recorded voice. I wouldn't share it
Who cares, this is an anonymous imageboard, there's literally no reason to be insecure here.

that video was probably the worst example someone could give you. Pretty sure he's trolling you lad

>>52013241
Because that video has infamously bad acting and writing.
Somebody please just vocaroo for him already.

The way you said ''That sounds like fun, alright?'' sounds more like a question though.

You said that it's cheesy? I've seen it written a lot but no one actually says it vocally anymore?
>>
>>52013428
i actually hate it but i think everyone feels like that about their own voice

>>52013618
>The way you said ''That sounds like fun, alright?'' sounds more like a question though.
idk what youre talking about

i mean, i guess people would say it? it just reminds me of leave it to beaver or some shit like that
>>
>>52013375
you say "users" funny senpai. there's a brief pause after u and then the s is unvoiced. "uzers" is what most north american say.

I also think I heard Cary Grant say it in a film I watched recently.

doesn't sound like:*

there's more than one accent in north american english and im from a city on the east coast, there's no one right answer to it, and if youre foreign and old enough to post on 4chan you'll never sound native anyhow

I'm not really talking about the accent, it's the tone. You made it sound like a question. I'm really confused.

At some point during the recording you said ''That sounds like fun, alright?'' and what I'm telling you is that it sounded like a question and not like: >>52012647
