Does an anglo accent sound good/not completely annoying in ANY other language? Russians and polish hate anglos speaking in their languages, yet even norweigans can get a near perfect polish accent. But for brits its impossible
>>
English have different rules and polish is more plastic language
After 3 years my boss cant pronounce my name but i find it silly not annoying
>>
>>75933415
Swedes are the best non slavic and non post ussr russian speakers.
>>
English accent as in english pronunciation? or actual British accent?
English pronunciation in any language outside of germanic tongues makes you extremelly hard to understand even if your actual knowledge of the language is good
>>
You will sound like a cowboy.

Yes, even the British.
>>
It's fine in french. It's not particularly annoying or anything.

I don't understand how you can like french accent in english though, always has been a mystery to me
>>
>>75933415
Essentially everyone sounds like crap when they speak a new language. Some languages "match" better, but that's not a reason to choose which language to learn.
>>
>>75933870
it's literally the best accent in the world
>>
>>75934023
But french sounds so bad. Nigger language.

It's popular enough that text-to-speech company CereProc has created Nicole, a "sexy French" voice that you can buy and install on your computer: https://www.cereproc.com/en/node/660

You can even listen to a sample or try putting your own text to have her read it.
>>
>>75934127
For me it's stupid meme. I don't understand how it can be the best language. Do anglos really like ancestors' lang so much?
>>
>>75934196
I should also note that this is a voice that reads English with a French accent. It doesn't read French; they have actual French voices too, separately.
>>
>>75934213
my parents are irish, I just think it's a gorgeous language for me personally. It sounds elegant
>>
>>75934283
Italian >>>>>> French
>>
>>75934297
nah Italian is a meme

Spanish is better and I don't think Spanish is nice
>>
>>75934213
>I don't understand how it can be the best language

Romance languages are considered easy on the ears and French, when spoken by a beautiful woman, is really pleasing imo
>>
>>75934297
Portugese >>>>>>> Spanish > Italian >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> French
>>
>>75934358
lmoa
>>
>>75934358
Spanish > Italian > Poortuguese >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> French

I think it's the image associated with the French that fools everyone
romance culture and all that when the language is just plain disgusting
>>
>>75933415
It sounds a bit annoying, especially because you add diphthongs everywhere for some reason.
>>
>>75934330
>>75934358
Weirdos.

I wonder what the relationship between Lara and her father (real life) is

what interpretation did she want applied to this statement lads

>>75934521
She's like 6ft, so must be ashamed he fathered such a tall lanky daughter.

Their accents sometimes sound like that of the Middle Eastern immigrants. Anglos tend to add an extra H everywhere. Khiithos. Oh and forget about consonant pauses entirely. People with other native languages have an easier time.
>>
>>75934016
You seem nice
>>
It's the price for having the most relevant language, they can't speak anything else
>>
>>75935601
I think a bigger price is that english is a bloated, nonsensical piece of shit with too many words included for the sake of pretenciousness and a terrible orthography
>>
>>75935718
(Foreign words)
>>
>>75935718
Yet it seems to work, I mean it's a very popular language worldwide in terms of media and music.
>>
>>75935751
That's not because it's good, it's because of the aftereffects of the British Empire and modern American Empirialism
>>
>>75935839
>That's not because it's good

People wouldn't buy American and British music if the language didn't at least sound good to the ears.
>>
>>75935883
especially hip hop
>>
>>75935883
Yeah I guess you're right about that, I was just thinking in terms of its influence. My bad.
>>
Swedish English is actually the best.
Can't think of any languages where having an English accent sounds good though.
>>
>>75933415
>yet even norweigans
the fuck is that supposed to mean
>>
>>75933415
lots of poles here in chicago. the average polish last name is grzpszhelak. many of those "poles" are second or 3rd generation so i wonder if they can pronounce their own names.
>>
>>75937726
because you oil niggers can't into foreign languages just like americans. finns speak swedish. swedes speak finnish and somali. and you? only english?
>>
I've been told that my Japanese is, unless I get lazy, very difficult to distinguish from native speech. Intonation isn't perfect, but that varies by region within Japan, so it's not a sure sign of a foreigner.

If you have a really strong accent or people cannot understand you, it means you need to study harder or get more experience. That's all.
>>
>>75937926
fuck off weeb
>>
>>75935718
just stop using french words and speak anglish you fucking moron
god, and after that you say you hate the french? get rid of our words to begin with you'd look less stupid
>>
>>75937918
we later learn german, french or spanish.
>>
>>75937918
>mfw you're going to become actual niggers

You will sound quite bad in slavic languages if your native language is English.

You can't roll your r's, your vowels are soft and you can't into consonant clusters.

I think anglos would do well on other germanic languages like Norwegian or Dutch (if you can master their -chhhhhhhh)
>>

Poud of muh Diver City
>>
>>75938478
How's this? I just picked a random Serbo-Croation phrase that has a weird consonant cluster.

russiaanon is right

>>
>>75933415
>even norweigans can get a near perfect polish accent

we can get near perfect accent in any language because "we can into languages"
>>
>>75933711
>>75933415
Scandinavians in general are very good with Slavic languages.
>>
>>75939464
I think it has to do with being able to pronounce the different sounds in the language. The Scandinavian languages have the largest phonemic inventories in Europe, so it's easier for them to naturally make sounds in other languages.
>>
>>75939503
nah I think it has to do with all the trillions of dialects which exists in Norway
>>
>>75938363
Yeah, I said I hate the french m8.
Fucking dumbass
>>
>tfw mexicans hate our gringo american accent when we speak spanish
>>
>>75935239
That's because in Germanic languages k, t and p are always aspirated at the beginning of a syllable
