hahaha could it be true?! is joe really banned?!

I know. Did I give the impression that I thought he was?

Make such a "small technical" error in such a pompous post about Americans not knowing that the British have different ways of speaking and it becomes glaringly obvious.

Maybe I took it out of context. Blame the night of drinking that occurred last night; my judgment is impaired at the moment.
 
Actually, I'm not, so in between getting shot down at the bar and getting dick sized plugs shoved up your nose you might want to check your facts.

not to take sides or anything but that's what you told us when you first joined here, so that's what everyone has believed so far. Don't tell someone to check their facts if you gave them false ones to begin with. :mad:

When did I say I was French Canadian? I may have said my dad was but I don't know French and never lived in Quebec. Not that I give a shit anyways. You fags are really making me laugh at how sad you are hitting up this petty bullshit in every post :lol:

IPOD!

But seriously, Joe, you should confine your posting to the Star Wars thread, because everywhere else you come across as a pompous prick.

Not really. No one here (except Anvil maybe) deliberately tries to do that, most of the other times it's pretty much only happened when someone tries to question something you've said, and then you explode and start calling them fags while saying you're not caring. If you demand attention, you at least need to be ready for negative attention too.

I'd be more friendly with you if you weren't so busy talking about yourself the whole time.
 
The ipod thing is getting old soooooooo fast, guys.

Don't worry dude, my girlfriend just made some chocolate chip cookies and we're gonna watch Zak and Miri make a Porno, let them keep going on if it entertains them :lol: Ive chosen just to ignore their shit instead of egging them on for the sake of you, steve, max and whomever else.
 
Dialects and accents are completely two different things. An accent is just a different way to pronounce the native language, whereas a dialect is almost a different language in itself, complete with different words and pronunciations altogether which are incomprehensible to all non-speakers of said dialect. For example, ebonics isn't a dialect; it's slang. It uses the same words from the English language for different purposes.

If I'm not mistaken, I always thought that there was an actual different dialect in Wales, but I could be wrong. Of course they speak English with a Welsh accent, but didn't they have an old Welsh dialect as well?

Also, it should be noted that dialects and languages are different as well. The only thing keeping a dialect from becoming a pure language is lack of grammatical structure. Every region in Italy has its own dialect, but they aren't languages. However, where I live they speak two languages: Italian and Friulano. Friulano is like a cross between Italian, English, and Latin. It's a barbarian language that's older than Italian which was brought here by the barbarians such as Attila the Hun. It's a sort of Celtic language with its own grammar structure and even literature. In Veneto, which is the region of Venice, they speak Veneto...which is a dialect. It's completely different and I understand almost nothing of what they say. It's like a completely different language, but without the proper grammar structure it's just a dialect.

wat

Like I said, an accent is the influence of a native language on a secondary language, a dialect is a different pronunciation of a language due to regional differences. No idea what gave you the idea that dialects are incomprehensible to speakers of the same language, because usually, they are.
 
What gave me the idea? The fact that someone speaking the Napolitano dialect is incomprehensible to anyone speaking normal Italian who doesn't know said dialect.

You've got it backwards. An accent is a different pronunciation of a language due to regional differences and a dialect is the "almost" second language. I used to have a somewhat southern ACCENT because I came from Louisiana. John has somewhat of a southern ACCENT as well due to being from Texas. A New York ACCENT is different from a Boston ACCENT. There are no dialects in the United States, unless you count the Cajun/French dialect in south Louisiana...but that's a dialect of French, not English.

Americans often confuse accents with dialects when they are two completely different things.
