Re: How do you talk?

Post by TillyWhitlock »

I've been told that I have this accent. I don't know where or how I got it, but apparently I have one. Shane makes fun of me for saying things weird. I also come from Delaware and there is a city in Delaware that the Delawarians are very picky about. And that's Newark. Now if anyone is from New Jersey, correct me if I'm wrong, but I've been doing this for years. In Delaware you say Newark like it's two words broken apart but put together. New-Ark. That's how you say the city in Delaware. In New Jersey it's New-Rk. They take the A out. So we're very picky about that.

Then add on that one of my baby teeth never fell out so I have an extra tooth that grew in a few centimeters behind it so I can't say words that have the nth after them. Months doesn't come out right. If I want it to come out right, I have to really concentrate and say it very slowly. People then start to think I'm weird because I really do try to avoid words with the nth on them. It sucks having to think about things like that.

Yeah, people from other countries can't hear us properly...
Has anyone seen that 'Beached As' clip on youtube? My accent is similar to that. Here's a link:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZdVHZwI8pcA

I live in Tennessee, outside of Nashville. My accent has gotten more pronounced the past few months. It's getting hard to control it. Ah, well.

My natural accent is Australian. But I can do accent's of the following:
Scottish
English
Maori
Irish
Canadian
Japanese ^_^

I've got all those bloods in me, except japanese. But I can speak Japanese :D It's fun having different accents, cause I use them when I need to do speeches.
