      Post Your Accent

      Let's hear your accent!

      Read the following excerpt (from Harry Potter, of course), and post your file/video here.


      The Firebolt

      This state-of-the art racing broom sports a stream-lined, superfine handle of ash, treated with a diamond-hard polish and hand-numbered with its own registration number.

      Each individually selected birch twig in the broomtail has been honed to aerodynamic perfection, giving the Firebolt unsurpassable balance and pinpoint precision.

      The Firebolt has an acceleration of 150 miles an hour in ten seconds and incorporates an unbreakable Braking Charm.

      Price on request.

      EDIT: Both the .wma and .mp3 upload fucked up (my 56k cuts out before they can finish). So I sound like a broken voice syntheiser, alright?

      Oh, this post has given me such levels of inexpressable joy&#33; And while I was amused of a Kiwi&#39;s immitation of an Englishman, I have to wonder... what the crap was that at the end?

      And the mic came with my computer that my grandpa gave with me. Yeah grandpas (I&#39;ll record it soon.)

      EDIT: Here it is.... For some reason I sound so different than I think I sound... And sometimes when I&#39;m reading I have a tendency to mix together some of the consonants, but that also may be from all the consonants I get from Russian.

      Yeah, the english impression was rather junk.

      And the end bit was a "Maaaaaaaaaaaaaate&#33;". It&#39;s an Aussie thing. I&#39;m kiwi I know, but my Aussie friend does it all the time and it;&#39;s sort of caught on.

      Oh, yeah, and so far my favourites: Alex. Alex, you sound so sexy. And Amé - you sound way different than I sort of thought you would - nice though, as far as (mostly icky) American accents go&#33;

      Cool thread&#33;

      And here I go&#33; I wonder what kind of accent mine is - I&#39;ve learned English from Cartoon Network mostly so that&#39;s why I have sort of an American accent. Are there more types of American accents? I&#39;ve only heard of the southern accent, heard it mostly in "Gone with the wind".

      Hmm...can&#39;t seem to figure how to attach my file. I&#39;ll get back to this later.

      edit : edit: http://s149.photobucket.com/albums/s49/luc...¤t=Video000.flv

      Ynot, I had to go to wikipedia to read who Taffy is. I had forgotten all about her and the Teen Angels; the only thing I remembered about Captain Caveman was that he appeared in some special Flintstones series. Thanks for making me remember this&#33;

      Made up my mind to make a new start,

      Very interesting topic Burns. =P

      Maybe we should host a Skype chatroom sometime. It goes up to 20 people by voice and 100 per chatroom right?
