You're just upset because we beat you (once granted) in the rugby..... the newbie and unexperienced italian team shouldn't have been able to do that to the welsh heroes but you beat us in the football..... and we lived with the shame...... just



Oh and.....

I take back everything I've ever said to you in PM Konk

The attraction engendered by the accent would disappear instantaneously.
I believe Dubya is from Texas, or there abouts.... and i think that makes my point without my having to say another word
No amount of money, status, power or accent is going to make a person more attractive to me if they have an amoeba for a brain

So.... rather than accent.... and if we disregard what's actually being said too..... i suppose i'm very much attracted to the tone/timbre/nature of someone's voice.... more than the accent..... i've sat transfixed while listening to someone's voice before and i'm sure i'm not the only person who's become infatuated with someone i've only ever spoken to on the telephone
Meeting them can sometimes ruin the image

I reckon you are trying to wind me up after that mad South African woman I got involved with, it wouldn't take you long to get bored of her saying "nooo nooo nooo" I thought she was trying to impersonate the dog on the chuchill advert. Also her calling everything "Thingy" got on my nerves after a while.

On top of that she wouldn't make any decisions about anything until she consulted the bible, and she had the cheek to say that I took too much notice of others and should do my own thing.

Tip kink, if you fancy a South African stay away from the religious ones, and keep your eye on your bank balance!

I did pick up a few usefull words Afrikan, Xhosa and Shona......

Like Lekkerrrrrrrrrr

and Footsack

I doubt you will find those in any translation guide though!

Anyone that speaks proper English (like wot I do ), doesn't matter about the accent as long as they pronounce their words properly and don't use slang.

I'll set myself up for ridicule here but like a Scouse account on a man, also partially to Cockney and Geordie. Don't care for Brummie or Yorkshire accents, apologies to anyone afflicted

looks like i struck a nerve there
Sounds like she just wasn't a good match for you whatever accent she had

I don't think an accent could get me to fancy a person and lead me to ignore all their other irritating characteristics..... i'm too cynical anyway and an accent doesn't tell you enough about the person, well not enough for me to be attracted to them anyway It might turn my head..... but it would take a lot more for it to stay looking in their direction


Thanks for the phrases though...... will have to give you some arabic ones only problem is i wouldn't be able to translate them on here


Oh and kronas has a lovely accent.....
