One that isn't yours. No offense.

[-] davidgro@lemmy.world 17 points 4 months ago

I actually think that's a universal truth. One's own accent is boring or even feels "non-existent" (it exists) but it may be very attractive to someone else with a different one.

One that isn't mine because I hate it

Shrek is love, Shrek is life.

[-] sanguinepar@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Yeah, but Shrek's Scottish accent is horrible.

Stella Turns Tricks?

[-] Good_Slate@lemmy.world 4 points 4 months ago

There are multiple Scottish accents. You'd have to pick which one! Perhaps the most widely recognised would be Glaswegian.

[-] sanguinepar@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Though probably not the most widely recognised as sexy ๐Ÿ˜

I had a boyfriend in England, he was Scottish (town southwest of Glasgow) but had lived in Canada, so the accent was muted. I am from Florida with parents from Louisiana so southern but not Southern l. I liked when he got drunk because he got more Scottish and he liked when I got drunk because I sounded Southern.

@ambitious_bones@lemmy.world

@wuphysics87@lemmy.ml

which one though? I can guarantee you're not talking about Ayrshire (mine) or (most) Glaswegian. North & Islands are pretty good though.

[-] ambitious_bones@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Whats the one Frankie Boyle speaks?

[-] determinist@kbin.earth 1 points 4 months ago

he's from Glasgow, however almost all Scottish people, if they depend on depend speaking to make a living, change their accent a bit and we tend to speak more slowly. to me, he sounds quite mild and proper. still Scottish, i can tell he's from Glasgow ish but his accent isn't strong. also, he's speaking slowly. Our accents vary a lot here. I grew up 35 miles from Glasgow but people there couldn't understand me a lot of the time when I spoke.

I had to throw that into a translator, I barely know a little shimaore which is not even exactly kiswahili. What did you mean ?

[-] Dr_Vindaloo@lemmy.ml 3 points 4 months ago

Ah, I assumed only a Kenyan would answer Kenya lol. It means "stop deceiving people" meant jokingly

[-] Hadriscus@jlai.lu 3 points 4 months ago

yea heheh this is essentially what I got with deepL. No I only have been on a couple stopovers in Nairobi.... women are beautiful... and like I mentioned they speak a close cousin of the local language over here... which I find very sexy. Both in kiswahili and english btw. Are you from Kenya ?

I've always enjoyed a stout Minnesota accent. Very cosy and fun. Sexy... Is a bit beyond my use case.

Women speaking south-western Norwegian accent. The one from Sandnes is my weak spot. It's very soft and feminine.

[-] Frostbeard@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

That's my hard pass for some reason. Or did you mean when that dialect speaks English?

As a French speaker I think Italian is pretty sexy, however French is also considered as a sexy accent ;)
