And then you went and ruined it with "Herbs"

There's a H for a reason. You don't call 'em "Amburgers" or saying "Ello" do you!?

I keed, I keed. But stop calling them Erbs, it's silly
idk about where you are, but for some people where i live, herb with a pronounced H means "fag" or "little *****".


mike: c'mon man, try the 5-alarm super-hot fire engine sauce.
joe: no, it's too damn hot, i'll be sick all day!
mike: don't be such a herb! just try some!

That's the Barnsley accent for you. We to replace own with arn in a good couple of words.
I know a chap from Barnsley. Nicest guy I've ever met, but it sounds like he's just been hit on the head and is having a hard time remembering his name. Also, I keep expecting, in the middle of whatever we're talking about, for him to say:

"Ooooooooh. A coop'f tea'd be loouuvleh"

I can see this thread going horribly wrong. I see lots of Americans claiming to be accent-less. I'd say that's probably untrue and you probably sound unbelievably American to me. In the same sense that I would usually say I'm free from accent when in fact I probably sound unbelievably English to you.

You've gotten it wrong!

OT: Being a Norwegian, I guess I only have like the Scandinavian accent(trying everything not to sound like [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CoE18IgEVf0" (title,target)]this[/URL].( "the demper"= suspension in cars)

Much of my writing(with friends) is a mixture of norwegian and english, making it difficult to understand for outsiders. But that's a plus right?

eg Newtownards = Newtnards

Problem is I don't know what kind of accent I have. I'm from Texas, but my parents were born in Costa Rica. My dad's parents were born in Ecuador, my mom's parents in Peru. My mom's grandparents were born in Israel, and then some of us came from places like Armenia. It's a big ol' clusterfuck of accents, that I can't tell what part of the world mine comes from.

The way this is spelt makes me think of Dudley. "Clowun/Towun/Gowun"

That's perfectly acceptable. It's reasonable to not know what your accent is, or not to belong to one accent in particular. I just mean the people claiming to not have an accent.

I like eating toast
I like eatin' toas.

I just have a relaxed American accent, with the pronunciation of "ing" as "en" and the leaving off of hard consonants at the end of words sometimes.

Well, not really any discenrable accent.
I am Canadian, but I watch British tv, so I know how to pronounce word properly. And I use words like pub.

Some British tint over a Scandinavian accent.

Hard to phonotype.
British tint over a finnish accent here. I'm easily influenced, and mainly talk with brits. Sue me.

Wouldn't know how to type it.
Wooden gnaw how to type it.

Something like that.
