I totally agree, can't stand Southern accents!


Well at least people understand what we are saying. Charlie and David are totally unintelligble! My brother lives in Yorkshire and I can't understand his wife who is a Yorkshire lass either!

They are perfectly understandable to me,but i'm Welsh ...I think it's an English thing, none of you seem to understand anyone who lives more than 20 miles away from you Confused Laugh Laugh


I understand them fine... but they do have quite strong accents... I suppose being from the NE helps too Wink Laugh

It's because whereas there's obviously a variety of different accents, they all have the same quality of being flat and non musical...and that's what I dislike about them

It's like Welsh, Scottish, Irish or even Geordie voices - 100s of different accents, but with the musical quality in common - which you either like or hate

With the exception of a very drunk Glaswegian accent, neither have I Laugh....I think a lot of people just don't want to make the effort and expect everyone to try and talk like them.

I've never ever met a foreign person who had any problems understanding me, but when I go to England I have to talk reall....y....s....l....o...w for the poor buggers Roll Eyes
