El hilo de acentos
Hola, lo he creado porque mismo me interesan mucho los acentos de los varios países españoles, los acentos localidades de las regiones de España, y acentos de Inglaterra. seguro que a otros les gustan oír acentos varios ingleses.

Si encontráis un vídeo con un acento que nos queréis compartir, lo poned aquí. Incluid el nombre del acento y donde se lo hablan, así es mejor. Gracias!


(Cajun accent) Acento Cajún de Louisiana y otras partes del sur de los EEUU

Can't follow it!!

But it's a fine coincidence you posted this Bob...
This morning it took me a while to get used to her accent (no idea of where she's from... I suppose she's American though):

She sounds Southern. A flat Floridian accent maybe?

I'm only guessing but she sounds like the blonde gun expert on CSI Miami!

I'm afraid the voice is so painful I was unable to listen to more than 20 seconds. How can the very simple word and be pronounced eeeeeeaaaaannnd ? How can this possibly be a diphthong?

Right - Harsh vocal quality to begin with notwithstanding, the inflection
evident in 'eeeaand' denotes hesitation-thinking-it-over-before-continuing
anywhere in North America...maybe like puees, que siempre me encanta el acento mexicano...

Thank you, xchic.


Here's a Mexican famous writer, Carlos Fuentes. His accent is a neutral Mexico City one.
