Well, english is not my first language, so I might hear the accents differently, not as finely tuned in as a native speaker...and the american accents - there are so many! Sometimes american accents can be a bit nasal, but I like the energy of the american accents in general. It sounds very outgoing and friendly. And I especially like the southern accents - there is something lush and exotic about it. Louisiana, Georgia...southern women sound so sexy - I wish I could speak like that! My swedish accent is kind of silly...to me at least. But Greta Garbo and Ingrid Bergman managed to uphold an air of mystique despitetheir accents, so...
Good luck with your marrige plans! I guess there are plenty of scotsmen to go around...

But back to the subject. I know what you mean about accents. Since I'm half german half native speaker I can keep the different accents apart quite good, but most of the people here in Germany can't decide whether it's a scottish, irish or english accent. I just think it's sad that they can't hear the difference, but I think it's understandable.

As fe American accents...I think the sound of the persons voice really makes a big difference on how peaple hear Americans outside of the south and New York. Most of the American accent doesny really have any song, It's fairly straight.. But I'll admit I'll alway's be partial te my and all Scot's accents...wait...not the Northeast! They have a wee bit o diff. accent... Anyway sorry te barge in like just wanted te ge you a wee cheers!!!! Andy |
