Why Are You Happy Today?

[scy]

I don't think I sound very southern at all, barring some various colloquialisms (fuck you, I say y'all).

[Trifkin]

I certainly don't sound Texan, at least according to the dozen or so Northerners I've spoken with. I've been told I have no accent whatsoever and I've been told I sound French or Arabic. I've even been asked if English was my first language due to how I phrase things.

"Where are you from?"
Texas.
"Yeah, but where were you born? Where were you raised?"
...Texas.
"...Huh."
Huh, indeed.

Too many books and not enough human interaction when I was growing up, methinks.

Having lost my Irish accent I now have the west coast generic accent. Boooriiiiing. According to my friends I still retain some "foreign" speech patterns and pronunciations.

[scy]

I occasionally speak in bad Engrish. Which is a complicated concept, now that I think about it.

After being in Minnesota for only about a year, I have caught myself taking on a slight midwestern accent, on occasion, like elongating "o"s and flattening "a"s. I think it's kind of cute when I hear it, and I suppose I want a little bit of that in me now.

[Twat]

I have had to train myself extensively to sound less French.

Sometimes when I say a word like "mother", people are like "Huh? What's that?"

Mothehl =/= Mother :/

[PLA]

I don't sound very texan either, actually. :\

@Roselhort: Is your accent really that thick? That's awesome.

@PLA: Are you a Texan living in Sweden? Or did I miss a joke?

[Etrian Veteran]

I don't sound like I was born in Utah or raised in Tennessee at all.

Also, Rosel, that accent is great.

[Twat]

Erm, it is not as strong as one may think. Just enough to hinder my vocal clarity.

I say some words funny, if I don't think about it I say "yeh" instead of "you", ect. My speech is rather lazy, i guess. Don't know if it's a "Candian" accent, it's certainly not an east-coast Canadian accent.

[Yoonah]

Californian's apparently have a "flat" accent
i tend to elongate my "o" and my mum tells me i have a lazy way of speaking...

I heard that Zamisk says 'eh' a lot
