What have you learned today?

[James.]

Today I learned how to draw syntax diagrams :surprised:

[Yu-tong]

 

People may ask you for something sometimes. I will try, okay? :smart:

[Troxley]

I am dying to have the british accent

 

I have British accent MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA :D

 

 

I have learnt not to say Hola when supposed to be speaking French...

[Alien Radio]

is there a "normal" accent? :thinking:

[James.]

is there a "normal" accent? :thinking:

 

I dunno... maybe Microsoft Sam voice? :P

 

It's not like I had any choice in trying to do an American accent, I'm playing an American cop in my friend's film :laugh3:

Have you tried doing a different region of American than the one you were trying to do? There are several options you can choose from. Maybe you sound better as, say, a New Englander than you do with a general Midwestern accent. Or something like that.

 

Just keep trying. Maybe it'll come to you with practice. :smiley:

[Troxley]

Or maybe you could have a deep southern accent. :laugh3: I don't think I'm that bad at doing a British accent, but I've never had anyone to tell me if I sounded okay or not. And also, once I had to be Russian for a play...

[Violet]

^ That comment about southern accents reminds me of how I was messing around with accents, and someone told me that my Scottish accent was better than my deep southern accent. I'm a born-and-bred Texan.

 

...Yeah. Weird. :|

[Troxley]

^ Haha! :laugh3: that's funny!

[Texas Rez]

I learned that I do, as a matter of fact, have an accent. *is shocked*

[Troxley]

I learned that I can only do a good Scotish accent after being around actual Scotish people.

[Violet]

^ Haha! :laugh3: that's funny!

 

To be fair, I have spent much of my life trying not to sound like a hick. That's probably why I can't do it so well. While I do have a Southern accent, it's not very prominent. That's what the people in the Muse thread have told me, anyway.

[Troxley]

:\ that is a problem...

[Black Rose]

That he kindle fire is locked down more than an apple product

[Abracadabra]

Something important.

[Violet]

I don't even know the difference between those different accents :laugh3:

 

A Midwestern accent sounds like you standard American accent, I guess. It's the accent Christian Bale uses when he plays Bruce Wayne. New England accents have a different sort of flavor to it, and they're the kind you find in New York/New Jersey/the like.

 

That's probably not all that helpful, but it's a start. :shrug:

[Mollyxyloto]

Coldplay are not next door.

[Black Rose]

I've learnt that some people are just lazy, some people don't know what they are doing and by helping they cause more hassle trying to correct their mistakes and some people just ignore a busy bar to go and have a smoke.
