South African accents are annoying.

You may find that should read "Geeks", Spiff. We nearly had it all with that Y2K thing. WE NEARLY HAD IT ALL!!!

Now we're just gonna have to think up something else...

 

[Soul of a new Machine]

and what about the aussie accent?

 

[KoichCPA]

we don't have one-eh

 

[Spiff]

Soul, you'll find oot a lot more aboot us when you get to Australia, eh.

 

[Mark]

He's from Quebec, so he prolly sounds like a frenchie

 

[Spiff]

Oui, eh.

 

[Southy]

bloody smelly Frenchie's

 

[KoichCPA]

HE'S FROM QUEERBEC


the fag

 

[Goreripper]

What's with all this "eh" carrying on? Sounds like bloody North Queensland in here.

 

[phlogiston]

"eh" is the sterotypical Canadian sound. The North Queensland one is more like "ay".

 

[Goreripper]

Yes, but on an Internet message board, who can tell? It's still written the same way, eh?

 

[phlogiston]

That's why context is important.

 

[Goreripper]

So is syntax.

 

[phlogiston]

Soul, you'll find oot a lot more aboot us when you get to Australia, eh.

Context wins

No we don't , people from france who travel in Quebec barely understand us. Since we use lots of english words, we don't have their accent at all, fortunately

 

[Spiff]

I have no problem with the New Zealand accent at all. I know plenty of Kiwis and think their accent is fine.

Worst accent is either Selth Ifrican or Birmingham.

 

[phlogiston]

So says the Kiwi...
