Accent challenge!

[DarkAvengerZR1]

Since this forum has so many people, from all around the world, i thought it would be cool to see how many different accents we can have!

So, to start with it, i thought about a 3 steps challenge, which are:

1st: Say your nick name and from where you are.

2nd: Say the following words -
Shenanigans
Gran Turismo
Ferrari
Pagani
Huayra
Sausages
Lamborghini
Koenigsegg
Hamman
Zebra
Grateful
Midget
Knowledgable
Nurburgring
Forge
Probably
Achtung
Linguist
Probation
Cunning
Water

3rd: Say your favorite car and why.

Also, to start it off, i have done mine already.



Obs. If a thread like this already exists, excuse me.

I might give this a go at some point.

 

[W3H5]

I do this for a living, I don't really want to be doing it for any other reason.

My friend has one of those, 60-7-whp. 0-60 in 18 seconds, how it managed 180kmh I don't know.
Might give the challenge a go sometime.

If you image search Accent GS, my car is in the results. Someone in India used it as their picture to sell their car. Now my accent is world-famous.



Thanks for making us say linguist before cunning.

Is it the yellow one?

1page in and we're already technically off topic.
The word I always thought showed your accent best was amazing.

Downhill with a tailwind.

it was not that hard to understand what this thread is about, was it?

and... which word?

-video-

It is hard to give it a properlly end, isnt it? You get like... "uuuhh what now?"

 

[Techy]

You should add World and Squirrel in the list as well. People like me have a bit of problems pronouncing the r's in those kinds of words.

 

[DarkAvengerZR1]

I asked a few friends for accent testing words... they forget about that one, so did i. Feel free to say it if you like.

 

[astrosdude91]

I'll put one in.

 

[Slash]

I started a thread on another forum on how people pronounced other peoples usernames, the results were absolutely halarious.

That sounds like a good idea to adopt it onto here. They are some usernames on GTP that I think would be humorous to pronounce.

Downhill with a tailwind.

He said that it took several kilometres and that he had to run a stop sign. A bit dumb though.

 

[dhandeh]

I don't understand what is happening here?

 

[DarkAvengerZR1]

Record your voice following the steps in the OP. Then upload it somewhere and let we hear your accent.

Hmmm, maybe later!

 

[Moglet]

I'm doing it later 👍 I think it could be interesting to hear how everyone sounds.

Yeah, it would be nice to put a voice to some of these usernames.

If you all read my posts now in my voice it'd be hilarious

Here ya go!



From my analysis of my accent, my accent is a combination of a Yankee accent (generic East Coast accent? I don't know really how to describe it, but I've lived on the East Coast all my life and our accent we think is the lack of an accent, whereas people from other places call it a "Yankee" accent, apparently), Canadian/Minnesota/general north Midwest (the one with the long Os) accent, Chicago accent, and a bit of Jeremy Clarkson in there, mainly in the inflections. Let's see how the GTP community interprets it.

Disclaimer: just like everyone else, I HATE what my voice sounds like recorded.

My accent I know is very transparent, meaning I subconsciously pick up the accents of those I'm around, and I know exactly the specific people the Canadian and Chicago parts come from, and I only met them this past school year. So in a couple of years' time, my accent could be very different.
