    Some of you may remember the accents thread in which people recorded clips of themselves speaking in their native accents.

    This time, record a clip of yourself speaking in an accent other than your own (though if you wish, you can post a comparison clip of your normal accent.) You can post as many accents as you'd like, within reason. You can offer advice on how to improve etc. nicely, though of course it would probably be better if you spoke with that accent yourself, or had perfected it.

    You can use this site to record your clip.

    I want to do it...but dammit, my family would hear me and wonder what the hell I'm doing! Later tonight, when they're all asleep. You can all laugh at me then.

    I already posted a clip of me trying to speak English in the other thread... that's enough foreign accent I guess :grin:

    I could, however, adept some super farmer-ish accent and record a clip in Dutch, but that would be of no use.

    Okay, this actually didn't come out as bad as I thought it would, but I'm sure someone from Australia would find it...amusing.

    This is my normal voice, when I'm not trying to do an accent: ####### | Voice message

    And this is my attempt at an Australian accent: ####### | Voice message

    I can do several accents. The Cuban impersonation gets the most laughs. It is distinctive among those who speak Spanish.

    My Chinese dad accent needs some work. However, my Asian Lady accent is better, but it sound a bit strange LOL And yeah, I rambled a bit at the end..
