Wow your accent is extremely nice!! Very amusing and you enunciate a lot! It's very kind to the ear

Also, I couldn't know you're Argentinian! Very neutral in English actually

[mikeyup]

Though, really? audio recordings? I don't know... I don't like my voice :p.

you have a very clear and cheerful voice though. you should try voice acting

Thank you both!! :D That's really nice to hear!
I've never liked my voice, though. As I've been told, I think I sound very childlike :p.

Haha can I ask which words? I've been told I've got a kind of Southern English accent with a hint of Spanish.. which makes sense since I'm Chilean but my friends at Sussex were all Southern English (Kent, Hampshire, Sussex and Surrey)

Mainly though it sounds like you've learnt quite a public (private) school accent- hints of Longbowman's accent :)

You reckon?? I think it's probably cos a lot of my friends were relatively posh so they corrected me when for example I didn't pronounce the 't' in words such as party, better, Peter..

Remember one time I said "pa:i" instead of "pa:ti" and this friend from Winchester was like "oh no don't say that".. :lol:

Haha to be fair my accent is kind of posh in Spanish indeed but not as posh as my Winchester's friend's accent in English :P

Yes you probably picked it up from them then :). I pronounce the ts and have been told I have a well-spoken generic southern English accent, but I sound nothing like Longbowman :P. I was state schooled, and not even in the proper south actually.

Here's my accent, or lack thereof. Not really sure.

If they replaced with your voice, I would play every day.

Haha my Uni is very posh but at the same time my family is very pro-neutral-accents so I've got kind of a mix.. some friends though speak extremely posh and it's like they've literally got a potato inside the mouth.. but yeah, I don't enunciate so it's hard for people to understand my Chilean accent :(

What does chetos sound like? I remember someone told me they tend to pronounce the 'y' as veeery hard 'sh's.. like even more so than your average Argentine

Yes, 'chetos' tend to pronounce the 'y' and 'll' sound like the 's' in 'vision' (in English). They also have a nasal tone and there are some words that are less enunciated, like 'boludo', which becomes 'boló'

Yes, he has done so before, but the recording has probably expired now. :)

I grew up in the south midlands and went to school there. I went to uni outside of the UK. Southern England is lovely I agree, but there are some nice cities in the north too- I've been to York and Harrogate which were both attractive, particularly York. The countryside also gets more dramatic further north. I like both :)

You’re both dressed in sexy dresses
Having gone to great excesses
I sit and wait - you begin the game
What you’re doing drives me insane
My cock is rising to the north
Balls now going back and forth
We’re all working up a sweat
Your nipples getting very erect
Those little grunts and screams you make
Are really more than I can take
I think that now I’m obsessed











Women’s tennis is the best!

Never been to York! Will deffo go the next time I'm in England.

What?!?!?!?!? HOW DARE YOU.

J.k, no its not really offensive. Its a bit odd though that you would say it sounds Russian, considering Albanian sounds harsher (at least in my opinion). Though I was speaking more along the lines of the Tosk Albanian dialect in that one (which is more soft and more modern). I also have a really odd voice so that might have contributed to why you think that :p

[Brighton]

lol

Hahahaha shut up I'm very middle-class it's just my Uni that is full of "pelolais" :P

Had no idea Scots didn't pronounce their t's. To be fair I find Scottish English quite difficult to understand sometimes :(

But yeah, most people in Brighton pronounced their t's, so I do as well..

Do you guys in Scotland say loo or toilet? Cos my friends from Brighton tended to say loo but when I used it people from other places were like "what?"..

Sounds like you have braces or something like that. I find it very interesting to hear the voice of a fellow member of TA for the first time, pretty cool. You sound between 17-20 to me. Most likely South American or Asian. I'm leaning more towards South American, though. Hard to tell.

[Gustave H]

Everybody does.
Hmm. When I speak Russian I just sound like your ordinary Russian speaker, and my English accent could fit anywhere in America except NY I think.

You need to ask another Russian. You could sound "standard Russian", which is an accent per se.

You sound younger than you look. You look around 25-26 in photo but sound a bit younger with your voice.

[Graham]

What is the linguistic reason?
It's seen as a working class thing in Scotland, closer to Glasgow. Possibly linked to some Gaelic dialect or from the Scots-English in the original inhabitants. That isn't known.

English is fairly messy in comparison to other language. There's not much rules & you can get all thses different accents in many areas.

T-glottalling in Glaswegian
Glasgow has a special place in any discussion of T-glottalling in English. It is reputed to be the original source of the glottal stop in urban British English.

Whether or not this derivation is correct, it is certainly the case that T-glottalling has been particularly noted as a highly-stigmatised feature of Glasgow vernacular speech since the nineteenth century.

A letter of 1892 notes:
'Strangers hurl at us a sort of shibboleth such sentences as 'pass the wa'er bo"le, Mr Pa'erson' .

The social stigma attached to T-glottalling is well illustrated in McAllister's tirade against 'this degenerate tendency in modem speech'; McAllister (1963: 71). Such attitudes were still rife when Macaulay carried out his work.

[Harley]

I was curious, what do you think of my voice, what type of accent does it sound like, like what section of the world? And how old do I sound?

Makes sense, I haven't spoken Russian in years, and even when I did, I was never fluent but just had basic knowledge of it. Oh well, at least it's good to know there are things around there to improve and work on.

Your voice has a melancholy vibe to it, but I'm not sure I can pull many impressions about a person from their voice.

Please call Stella. Ask her to bring these things with her from the store: Six spoons of fresh snow peas, five thick slabs of blue cheese, and maybe a snack for her brother Bob. We also need a small plastic snake and a big toy frog for the kids. She can scoop these things into three red bags, and we will go meet her Wednesday at the train station.

There is an accent, the accent of someone who's spent a lot of time in England, but isn't from here.

Regardless, Benedicta, when are you going to convert to Englishness?

I dont really have an arabic accent, i speak with my friends and etc with normal american accent(despite me never living in that country, lol).

I basically decided to give a try to this, and even challenged myself to read in languages I haven't used orally in a fair while. I added an English excerpt just so you know what it's about, I'm reading the same monologue in all the records. In the last one however,I could not find the 3 first sentences, so it's a bit shorter.

Hope it's not a problem.

I've always felt more attracted to animated women, it's because their face, body, personality is so perfect that it doesn't exist in this world. They age gracefully and have like a eternal youth to them, purity and cute yet sexy at the same time.

There's a Japanese video where you can date the anime girl of your dream. My favorite are the beach type anime girls

Most noticeable thing is your deep bass. Your tempo and accent remind me of Continental Europeans schooled in British English. It is standard but you do have a bit of a 'continental twang' but I cant place my finger on it. Had I not known this was you...Id have guessed it was an RT commentator or anchor.

[Black Wolf]

I know that most of you don't care but oh well :laugh:

Out of curiosity, I asked some people from the UK what they thought I sound like - here's a very interesting reply:

"There are a few different accents in there to me - I used to teach English as a Foreign Language - English is not this woman's first language but she has learnt it from an American / living in America / American TV (maybe Canada) - from my first impression of the vowel sounds that are being used

1. the American 'drawl' Hel-oW
2. The short O sound as she says "Bob" to UK speaker it sounds BAHB

The 'fluency' where she says "Ask her to bring these things" and "We also need a small...." has a non English pace (here I don't mean she isn't clear and able to 'fluently' speak English, but that she has a non English pacing where she runs words that native speakers wouldn't into each other - there is a strong Ssk sound that she stresses in these parts

"Ssk hert obring" is what is heard not as a native speaker "Ask'er tabring" - her stress pattern is coming from her native tongue and is another sign this is not her first language (potentially her parents spoke a different language at home and grew up in the US? or moved later? As a child you can move between accents easily - but there are markers in your voice as an adult that can clearly place where you are from / language is your L1.

The clearest part of her original accent:

"Seeks poohns uv frish snuh peez" - (six pounds of fresh snow peas)

From this I want to say a Nordic accent (Maybe Danish / Norwegian) or Eastern European (sounds a little like Polish, but not completely)

But my knowledge of specifics in those countries is minimal - the only thing clear to me is that she is not American.

Unless they are a voice actor or a recording program, and really good at switching between several accents at once!


(Am I right?! I love analysing accents and am a trainee Speech and Language Thereapist / Speech Pathologist)


Also, SOOOOO not Australian, Irish, Scottish!!! haha! I can only guess that the people who guessed that are American and haven't heard many non American accents before - American TV has such bizarre versions of international accents (We don't sound anything like Mary Poppins characters in the UK or even like snooty posh "English" people that are always annoying in movies! - Listen to Hugh Laurie speaking normally, not in his 'HOUSE' accent, or Michael Cane they are more 'normal') ... I'm sticking more with Nordic region - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nordic_countries.

Edit - HA! just noticed that's how 'non English' that snow peas bit was - she was meant to be saying spoons not pounds! either way, she uses 'elision' (words running into each other in natural speech - FishUnChips for fish and chips) in a completely non standard English way, therefore non native English speaker.... she puts a break between words that would never happen with a native speaker. I stand by my Nordic countries accent".

It was fascinating :)

You have a nice sounding voice. :)

Bilingualism is awesome. I speak 3.5 languages myself. Anyhow, thanks for clearing that up. What's your first language?

Yes, my accent is stereotypical in that when one imagines an English accent one thinks of mine. Of course our regional variability vis a vis dialects is very high.

What about my accent? It's me reading an article from Wikipedia so my intonation might be off at times, how does it sound to you?

Quite good but a few words cannot be accurately understood.

Thanks :) Tough to improve with few people around to properly practise. But it comforts me that it's not utter crap

[Ars Moriendi]

Quite good but a few words cannot be accurately understood.

Here's what I said:

A vers a trianoni békeszerződésre reflektál erősen hazafias hevülettel, az ott elvesztett területek visszafoglalását vetítve előre, egyúttal pedig tökéletesen kifejezve az akkori közhangulatot.

What specific words did I say wrong?

Highlighted, this is a difficult word. I listened again, in other words understandable but must to concentrate better pronunciation. Not bad for a foreigner! ;)

You have a beautiful and soothing soft voice which is pleasant on the ears and a very nice Polish accent which sounds civilised and refined. I like it that Polish is now officially England's second language due to the amount of Polish people living here who speak it, as it's a lovely language. It's nice that we get to hear Polish accents regularly here in the UK too as I like to hear different accents. :)

We don't officially even have a first language. The only language with any kind of official status in the UK is Welsh (unless you count languages like Scots Gaelic that fall under the EU Minority Languages rules). Even English has no official standing. What you mean to say is, I'm happy more people speak Polish as a first language than any other language except English in the UK.

You have a cute soft voice, but's hard to hear with the background noise. :P

[Mark]

litteraly the definition of sounding normal

Normal is pretty boring, I meant too say more of an 'average' voice.

[Era]

Comment people, so far you sound as I expect you too :D

I hate my voice on recording, lol

[armenianbodyhair]

http://vocaroo.com/i/s0AGGDaYNTjQ

redone, this time there is no background noise. I'm not sure why I'm so quiet. That's how I normally talk. Maybe my computer just sucks. Turn your mic up.

You do sound normal.

Yeah, pretty much. I remember a while back Atlantic Islander telling me that I sounded like the way I looked, but she meant it in a good way.

[Pjeter Pan]

Your voice lacks firmness and is drenched in self doubt. Do it again.

:P

[Pjeter Pan]

You say "fucking" like someone from New York City/northern New Jersey

i said many times idk where i got it from, its weird

[armenianbodyhair]

Sounds like a 9 year old girl scared to testifying in court. Do it again.

[armenianbodyhair]

It sounds like you're trying not to have the neighbors hear you. I think that's what Chloe is trying to say.

I speak very quietly. That was louder than I normally speak do you guys want me to shout or something?

[Era]

It sounds like you're trying not to have the neighbors hear you. I think that's what Chloe is trying to say. There is even a hint of nervousness.

No I think she's not letting us hear her real voice ;)

Shout like you mean it Woggy!

[Mark]

You shouldn't have to pander to or prove anything to anyone here. You have a very nice, sweet and understated voice; not everyone needs to be loud and obnoxious.
