Post all of the funny accents you have heard here. I have heard some new yorkers pronounce ball like bull except in a lower tone. I know it's normal for them but it sounds funny. I've also heard some people pronounce the word tunes like choons, it just sounds funny.
The English accent is very fun to imitate but I think it annoys the English. Like doing a wester and Australian accent while saying words like Ozzie and outback. It also helps if your on vacation somewhere and you do the local accent to see if people think your from there or not and their reaction.
I think that accents are cool. From where I'm from, I don't have an accent. I really like how all of the different ones sound. I won't say which I think is the funniest, because I can't think of one of the top of my head and I don't want to be mean.
i like german accents. it sounds so cool! but funny accents would be chinese and and just how people pronounce things in general. my 8th grade science teacher says bag but pronounced it like vague but with a b.
I used to think that Canadian people saying "Eh" all the time was a stereotype (for the most part it is), but when I went to Canada a few years ago, all this one family at a museum was saying was "Get a load of that dinosaur, eh? ...Mighty big T-Rex, Eh? What ab-oh-t that exhibit, eh?"
I love it when stereotypes like that come true. The ONE TIME that I set foot in Minnesota, the one person that I briefly talked to said to me, "Ya, sure, yabetcha." It took everything I had not to burst out laughing on the spot. The accents in that area of the country are hilarious. Especially after watching Fargo. :P
I enjoy people from the southern part of America, trying to mimic a New York accent, and people from New York trying to mimic another part of New York's accent.
Which type of British/English accent? Cockney (ello gov-nah. Wots a bloke loike you doin roun 'ere a' dis ower?) Or proper (The rain in Spain stays mainly in the plain. [Inserts another snooty comment])?
It's like me saying that an American accent is the funniest one - there are a lot of different accents that are 'English' just like there are a lot that are 'American'.
