Posted October 12, 2010 Haha thanks for all the compliments on my accent guys! And I'll assume a Cockney accent is nothing bad, right? =P Ah I think the video makes my eyes look worse than they are... maybe. They're not really sore any more though luckily. =) Cockney isn't so bad. You do the accent better than the locals heh. Its like a lovely easy to understand version! I'm glad your eyes are doing well, you've been through the mill a bit lately haven't you?! *fingers crossed* for a perfect recovery! I might be getting surgery too heh!

Posted October 13, 2010 Awww Eenuh, you accent and your video is very cute! I'm sorry for making fun of you too If it helps, it sounds you've gotten it down a bit more(the word throw, at least :p). I think why I found it amusing was because you accent sounded so good, just with odd rather dutch sounding words here and there, but I hope it never felt mean! I do agree Danny, you sound exceedingly British to an extent, there's actually something about the way you talk that reminds me alot of someone I know, I think he had elocution lessons of some sort when he was little also, have you just learnt your english(lol typed british) from school/english speaking stuff? More british or more american stuff, if they've have an influence? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 13, 2010 And your eyes look sore!! I don't think so. I was going to comment on how lovely her eyes were, but thought that I may get the Dannyboy treatment so decided not to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

More british or more american stuff, if they've have an influence? What I particularly noticed in Eenuh's video was how she pronounces V like F. Now, that's a cute accent trait if I ever heard one! I started having English in school in 4th grade, meaning I was about 10 years old at the time, but already then I had learned some English from on-screen text and video game manuals to the point where I was able to understand basic texts. The strange thing is, I'm not entirely sure why my accent is predominantly British. I mean, most video games, even in Europe, are in American English, and the majority of TV shows I've watched have been American as well. I have watched and loved British stuff like Keeping Up Appearances, the James Bond films, Harry Potter etc., so I guess I've just preferred the British accent more or less subconsciously.

Posted October 13, 2010 I looove Ine's accent. However, I'm almighty disappointed that she didn't use several of her trademark words, such as "snack" or "stuff" or "candies" or even "yummy foood." I definitely here the Dutch-ness during snack and stuff. "Do you want a schnack, Jeem?" Its very soft. Flemish has got a nice sound to it. Very easy on the ears, like really good music. I've got a few Dutch friends, and their accents tend to be quite a bit harsher. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 15, 2010 I've got a mix of northern and southern. I refuse to completely let go of my southern accent, so constantly find myself switching depending on where I am and who I'm with. The southern accent just does things for me. I can't help but find it a total turn on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
