    Accents are great. that is a cracking story nightdragon, mind you the english accent won't work in Ireland or scotland, more likely to get you beaten up.....mind you a texan accent will work wonder with irish girlsLOL
    We have 32 counties in our little country and each one of them is different.
    rory1's accent is from the southern counties and is a sing along accent that drops womens panties at a hundred yards.
    Mine is a bit like Colin Farrell's accent but unfortunately I don't have his looks or his money and much to my dismay my accent causes the same panties that rory1's song drops to go right back up again.....well with Irish women anyway.....LOL
    Accents from the north of Ireland are damn well near impossible to understand.

    Now lots of accents are very sexy, the French accent is really nice but I have to say the one that stops me in my track is the Spanish accent, think Salma Hayek and Penelope Cruz. I wish I had learnt Spanish in school instead of French.

    Now when for a stateside accent, I do have a favorite, I got to say I love the Texan accent. When I was a young man of about twenty, I met a girl from Texas from Dallas, who was blonde, boobs the size basket balls and an accent that just sucked me in. Unfortunately it was not to be, she married a German and went to live in Hamburg and he told her "Ich verbiete Ihnen, den kleinen Kobold böse reden" which means "I forbid you to talk to the little angry leprechaun" which when my friends found out called me the angry leprechaun when they want to slag me.

    Actually, just thinking of something else.

    We have a ruby tournament here called the grand slam.
    In it is Ireland, Scotland,Wales,England and France.
    When the matches are on the following is what happens.

    When Ireland play:

    Scotland---- lots of drinking, nine months later births go up by 1/2 a percent.

    Wales-------lots of drinking, nine months later births go up by 1/8 of a percent

    France--------lots of drinking, nine months later births go up by four percent.....every year!

    England--------lots of drinking, nine months later no increase at all in births but at the time nearly two hundred percent increase in Irish hospital accident and emergency (ER) attendance.

    That is accents for you.......LOL!

    OK Dyna, so where is Liam Neeson from??

    Here is my English female voice story...
    When I was stationed at Tinker AFB I was the shift chief for our maintenance group. That means I answered the phone. EVERY night this SWEET SWEET English female would call and ask to speak to her husband, who was part of our crew. For months I fantasized about how Sweet and beautiful she had to be, and how  on earth a sweet girl like that could be married to such a troll. I am sorry but I can not describe him any other way, he was a troll.
    One  day I was in the checkout line at the BX and I heard that SWEET voice right behind me. My heart raced, I began to sweat. Do I turn around and look? Do I just keep looking ahead and forever keep my fantasy? Well curiosity won the skirmish and I turned around. She looked like his ugly brother. I was devastated...

    By the way ladies, I also learned a leson that day that I have Never forgotten. Beauty really is inside, not on the cover.

    Y'all: You all, youse guys, you...

    And now that my sweet y'all has been challenged, just wait! I'm used to texting pals locally in my voice rather than proper english, so I'll start typing messages the way I'd speak it now too.
    Y'all can learn how to speak in a southern U.S. drawl, or atleast see how we do it down here!
    But if I'm siitting with pals, talking and drinking and having fun, you will begin to hear the accents of all the places I've lived nd all the people I've lived with.
    I love this site, Y'ALL!

    There are different ways to speak with an English Accent...you have the Queens English, which is a bit uppity, and then if ya want to talk like the Beatles from Liverpool you have to somewhat mumble a bit.

    Back when I was working for the Feds, I was talking to a guy from England, and he kept saying I think there thowing me a Red Herring. I'm thinking what the hell does fish have to do with why I called him. After a while by how he was using this in a sentence, I came to understand that "throwing him a Red Herring" ment someone was blowing smoke up his ass so to speak.
    Hey if anybody out there know that this means something please let me know.

    I was born and raised in Toledo, Ohio. I lived in Dayton, and went to school in Cincinnati. The further south in Ohio you get, there is a marked twang spoken. Then I lived in Atlanta and New York City, both short term, but very diverse accents. When you jumble all of these together...you get me. And I have baffled the best. It never fails, when I am out in polite society. Someone will inevitably ask, "Tweek, where the hell are you from"??? And when I drink alcohol, OH MY! And there was a time, when I too dabbled in an English accent. Got me some free drinks every time. LOL Dragon's right tho, you really need to research before ya play that role....

    I was born in Houston TX but my parents moved back to Lafayette LA before I started talking so I never had a Texan accent. Instead I developed the dreaded Cajun accent. Everyone in my family sounds like the guys on Swamp People. It kills me to watch a movie that takes place in south Louisiana. The actors butcher the dialect. I on the other hand had to lose the accent completely. Not that I'm ashamed of my heritage or roots by any means, but it is a lazy language with mixed french and broken english. I prefer not to have an accent in my line of work. I work with guys from all over the world and the U.S. and I notice after spending a few weeks I start to pick up a redneck accent. My wife says it's time to come home at that time. By the way...she is from County Cork Ireland but has a coonass dad. When she screams at me in Gaelic, I just leave the house for a few hours.

    My folks are from Mississippi (Dad) Boston (Mom) and my father was a lifer in the Air Force so we moved all over the US and the Far East. When I visit my Boston side of the family they tell me I have a deep southern accent, when in Ms. They make fun of my yankee accent.... Now that I live in Fla. it's sounding too NY to me...LOL
