Poll: Most Attractive Accent

[lolmynamewastaken]

scottish everytime, when it actually sounds nice though...
also, welsh seems to have grown on me recently (if thats not a cry for help what is?)

 

[historybuff]

Where's Scottish!

I demand that this thread separate Australian and New Zealand accents. We are not the same!

 

[Therumancer]

Well I said American, even though we could be considered the baseline unaccented voice to which all others are compared.

... and yes for the record the language is now American, not English.

On a more serious note, I think it depends more on the person speaking than any accent in paticular. I've seen pretty much every accent on the list used both appealingly and annoyingly. A lot of it has to do with the intensity and how much genuine effort has been put into learning a language. No matter what the accent is, if you can't understand the person it's bad....

 

[DazZ.]

Any accent that is different to mine, makes the person more interesting and thus I'm more likely to attempt to get in them.

Works if you move around a lot as well, people find you more interesting as you are new and make a different kind of noise to everyone else. Curious buggers be humans.

I can say accents that I don't find attractive much easier, but I won't because I don't want to offend the Scots.

 

[DirgeNovak]

A German speaking French. That's fucking awesome.

 

[jojoemon]

Swedish. It just sounds great to me

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

Women with Russian accents are the best IMO.

 

[cheese_wizington]

German of course.

HANZ, I HAVE COME TO FIX JE WASHING MACHINE!

 

[Danman1]

American is just a little too broad. A man from Louisiana, Texas, and New England sound nothing alike.

 

[Guitar Gamer]

German of course.

HANZ, I HAVE COME TO FIX JE WASHING MACHINE!

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh yeah
German mixed with a smidgen of Britsh

 

[A Random Reader]

new zealand of course.

Ditto, we are not the same!

 

[TriGGeR_HaPPy]

To be perfectly honest, accents don't tend to bother me either way...
But for the sake of conversation:

For me?
In girls... Not a clue.

I voted the "Australian/New Zealand" accent, though.
But... with the girls, if they get that really strong Aussie accent, they tend to sound a bit like bogans.
(Coming from the fact that the only girls I've met with that really strong Aussie accent are bogans, to be perfectly honest. )
But when it's there, but not too strong... Geez, that's sexy.

Anyone who got a word I just said deserves a cookie.

 

[Cabamacadaf]

new zealand of course.

Ditto, we are not the same!

At least you're both on the poll...

 

[AngryFrenchCanadian]

Other as in French Canadian. Apparently, in France they like our accent and here we like their accent.

 

[Arcticflame]

Australian accent sexy? 49 people?

As an Australian I am appalled, how can you consider our layed back drivel attractive?

 

[hazakura]

Irish/Scottish. Followed by English.

 

[Headless Zombie]

I usually don't pay much notice to accents.

[Shintsu2]

Anything except American accents - absolute slaughter of the English language. I especially hate the Southern accent - and sadly I do occasionally say words like a southerner and with a southern accent even though I live in the Midwest. Particularly fond of French, British, and Italian. Swedish is nice too, I love how it sounds so sing-song-ish when they speak. German and Russian can be okay but not too heavy or it's kind of harsh sounding. I've never heard an English Japanese accent but that might be interesting too.

 

[Deleric]

Eh. Any dialect of English besides American is smexy. Scottish, mostly.
