því miður virkar íslenska ekki vel með erlendum hreimum
það er samt alltaf gaman að hitta fólk sem hefur lært nóga íslensku til þess að geta haldið samræður

This and hick Alabama back water talk.
The way poo in loos speak English is hilarious, whenever I see a group of them I wonder if they can actually understand each other.
Can somebody explain why accents within native speakers even exist?
There are these things called dictionaries and we all learn proper English for 12 years so it confounds me when somebody can spew out a bunch of gibberish and claim they just have an accent.
>>59578205
Second this.

Please do as the dune coon asks.
Southern US accent. I'd rather have to constantly ask some drunk abo to repeat himself than hear southern rednecks talk.

It's quite literally a regional meme. Think of it that way.
American
>>59579809
That's multiple accents, mate. Even someone from another country should easily be able to differentiate them.
>>59579800
I grew up in the dirty south and I never had an accent or understood why they exist. Maybe it's because I'm autismo and had the accent-less television raise me.

some really nasal USA accents
there are actually heaps of different american accents, some are cool some are not
>>59579671
It stems from regional dialect, case in point Pop vs Soda
>>59579857
I grew up in the dirty south too (Birmingham) but lived in Kentucky and Ohio as a young kid before that. My accent is therefore mostly neutral. So are my parents' accents. Not in the south anymore thank god.
>>59577830
It's a tie between ours and the Filipino one 2bh

Probably our lower class with shit like shortening the words, not pronouncing certain letters and all that good stuff.
>>59578063
Caribbean is not an accent though. You're going to have to be a bit more specific here.
>>59579763
Southern US accent is perhaps my favourite. Truly a shame so many people hate it. All the other accents just sound so bland and monotone to me it's not even funny.
>>59579893
Slang is different, I'm talking about people who say "Cawfay" instead of "coffee" or "a-boot" instead of "about"

Fair enough. Bongs definitely have different accents too so I'm not sure what that 'fat was on about, but I'm not sure about kiwis.

He has a very nice accent. The kind that working class people who have an interest in politics or books have.
I'm talking about a more scummy one
>>59580138
examples?
>>59579987
ah gotcha. Out of curiosity how do you guys pronounce "Rice"? Apparently us Californians pronounce it "Rai-ce"
>>59579857
>I don't understand why accents exist
>maybe it's because I'm autismo
You think?
Southern accents are literally by far the best accents in the US and every other American accent is unbearable.
If you're from the South and visit Britain hit me up and we'll drink beer and laugh at what nasally children the rest of your countrymen all sound like because they chose to talk like television characters instead of people.
You know, the, Californian accent where they just, like, all talk like this? You know?
>>59580308
I'll give you a hint, the television southern accent doesn't exist, and the closest thing is only spoken by old ladies now
southerners and black people
>>59580308
>from the south
>no southern accent

What? What conclusion is this "hint" trying to direct me towards?

Wiener Schmäh
I thought dialects were domestic variations of a language, while accents were foreigners trying to speak another language.
This thread is confusing.
>>59580512
Accents refer to any particular group's way of speaking a language, a dialect is a variation of a language that uses different spellings and words of which an accent is only a feature, like Twitter nigger speak or the differences between British and American English. You can speak British English with an American accent or vice versa.
>>59580495
this is my post in the thread
my first post in the thread
Lord do I hate the accent of southerners and black people
>>59580512
There really is no difference between dialect and language. Any linguist will tell you.

it means the best accent you think you like isn't real

But I've literally been to the South twice. What is up with this board and automatically assuming all cultural knowledge is from movies and pretending aeroplanes don't exist? Jesus.
Had a designated roommate my first year in university, now I can't stand indian accents.
He wasn't even a bad guy or a bad roommate.
Never bothered me until overexposure.
>>59580801
Different fag here. Where in the south did you go, and why?
>>59580308
that's just fine, your accents are all mumbling nonsense when they aren't fit for faeries

Yanks please don't use mexican as a base to learn spanish. You'll sound like absolute idiots.

Because it's like if I said I like "The british accent" people would just assume I mean "Toodle pip mate" accent that doesn't exist

Nashville, Memphis, the Hampton Roads area of Virginia, and all the countryside in between. I'm a bit of a Dixieboo and I wanted to see Graceland/music city and soak in the culture. In Virginia I took a boat tour of Norfolk harbour and saw all the US Navy ships docked there. One of the best vacations I ever did desu

I do. I can't type. Such is life

You ever been to the Louisiana bayou? Those fucking niggers talk funny as hell. Different thing from the usual southern accent and even harder to decipher. That's a weird place in general. If you saw the first season of True Detective, it actually represented rural Louisiana pretty accurately.

>>59580995
Fuck no.
People mostly use use "hermano/mano", "parce/parcero". Which are indeed cringeworthy, but not as much as "ese".

A good English stout sounds pretty good right now.
>>59579976
>Southern US accent is perhaps my favourite. Truly a shame so many people hate it.
Honestly, that's probably because you haven't lived near the accent. The closer you get to where southern accents actually exist, the more the local populace hates them, until you get to the epicenter where nobody cares.
>>59580308
Southern accents are garbage-tier, honestly. Something about the accent just seems two-faced and dickish to me.

Not quite sure what you mean about the accent but southern people are two faced as shit. The whole "southern hospitality" meme just means they're polite to your face. It's a very disingenuous culture.
Southern accents. followed by SoCal.
Glorious Midwestern accent is where it's at.

>>59581318
Yeah, I've noticed that kind of thing, and that may be why I see the accent in such a bad light. I live in Ohio, and whenever southerners come up here, they all act like shallow fucks.
Now I just kind of don't trust southern accents. I do find Midwestern to be calming and trustworthy, probably from the same effect, because all the most chill and honest people I know tend to have them.

There is no way of speaking dutch without sounding like a literal retard. That said, belgians somehow manage to make it sound even worse.
Very lucky to've been in a bilingual school where we got English classes from a brit, lost most of my accent when speaking English at least.
>>59577830
None. Everyone that tries to learn my language sounds cute.
