Re: foreign accents
Originally posted by BuzzOriginally posted by bungieseems some accents sounds quite terrible in english and german was one of them...I have a question to all english natives: I would be interested to know what foreign accents in English sound worst and what accents sound most charming (i.e. icelandic)....
I'll start off with American accents.
Northern American: I find this accent to be very welcomeing and kind.
Southern American: Makes people sound like idiots.
Eastern American: It's something I could get used to although it is a bit comical
Canadian Accent: Much like the northern American, except funnier.
Mexican Accent: No! I don't want a goddamn chicken sandwich!
Other Hispanic Accents: Can be alright as long as it isn't too heavy.
Soft British Accent: Probably the best English accent.
Hard British Accent: Might as well be a whole new language.
Scottish Accent: Hilarity ensues.
Irish Accent: Fairly amusing. But not as much as Scottish
Italian Accent: Pretty cool. Kinda scary in a Godfather sort of way.
Jewish Accent: I like it. Not sure why.
French Accent: Sounds almost demeaning.
German Accent: I can't tell if they are offering me chocolate or threatening my life.
Russian Accent: Sexy in a wierd femdom sort of way.
Japanese Accent: Love Japan. Love the accent.
Chinese Accent: Very strange. I still don't understand the whole "r" vs "l" deal.
Jamacan Accent: Awsome mon!
Native American: Much like Canadian, except it's enriched with the spirit of the buffalo.
Who am I missing?
The Dutch Accent is the most HOT accent I have ever heard ! -

sounds good: english (elegant), dutch (look above), the most scandinavian languages, french (sexy), japanese (exotic), italian (funny)...
sounds not so good: american english (reminds a bit of our unpleasant saxon dialect), turkish, russian, arabic, spanish...
...but actually all forign accents sounds interesting if you hear it for the first time...but a bit later some are beginn a bit to annoy...Comment
