British people are real?
No we’re all crisis actors paid for by the German government to scare countries to stay in the EU.
Hmmm seems ethically wrong but a social net good? ;)
No, I don’t think we are
/accent
Yer full of bollocks. Of course we are.
Br***** people. Don’t be so crude please.
I know it’s a joke but if you’re Scottish and you work with southern English cunts, this is true
We could be doing the accent in our free-time
Nice, innit
As a non English speaker, I find this hilarious
Dear @FierroGamer, I must inform you that your message is in English. This means you can type English, although I don’t know if you can speak the language or not.
I must inform you that speaking and writing are different verbs
I completely agree! I’ve studied Spanish for decades and I still have trouble understanding any native speaker unless they are speaking slowly.
Non-native speaker, perhaps?
The truth is at home they all sound South African.
Is there a reason why New Zealanders, despite being Commonwealth and British derived, sound more like Americans than the Australians who are next door?
The “british” accent as we think of it has evolved greatly since the colonial era. I’m not a linguist but I’d suggest the similarities you hear between Kiwi and American accents are things that were ubiquitous at one time then other English speakers lost them along way.
As an American, whenever I try to do an English accent it ends up as Australian. That one is much easier. Even the affectations feel easier to do.
So do they speak American at home?
Doesn’t everyone?
yes, and people in Portugal speak Brazilian
Ummm I think you’ll find both speak Spanish
You’ve obviously never been to New Mexico
Is that where the speak heisenburgian?
What? No, they speak New Mexican
I’m British. We don’t have the accent American’s think we do. We’re far more scummy and swear far more. Proudly working class, and proudly unpretentious.
At home practicing various ways to say “fair enough” and “at the end of the day”
So do British people actually pronounce the other 1/2 of the alphabet that they normally don’t when they are home?! It’s pretty funny how much they butcher the language they invented.
