I’m a scouser and I love my accent. I don’t mind any accent, as long as they are a decent person . Only problem about my accent is when someone finds out I’m a scouser not in Liverpool, they ask me to say chicken

I won't lie to you, my son does this to his Nanna as she's a scouser. It's always that and purple. He'll laugh at it for hours
I've been guilty of that
I used to date someone form Glasgow and always got him to say "there's been a murder"

I nailed it btw.
Its that lovely sound that comes from the back of the throat. Be my Valentine

Warrington in between Manchester and Liverpool do not have a nice accent. I’m not fond of it at all. The women from the armpit areas can be quite harsh on the ears and on men it sounds a bit camp.
Wigan isn’t a nice accent. Too much emphasis on their O’s. They sound as thick as brummies.
I find the NW to have such drastic changes of accent in a small area.

Ove just been to IKEA Warrington this morning and the range of accents. The Warrington accent to me is a mix of Scouse and Manc. I love the Wigan accent, I always used to laugh when my mate from Wigan said Bus which sounded like Buz. We do have a lot of different accents in the North West.
My dad is from Rock Ferry and my partner is from Norris Green, love both of their accents but sometimes when I'm in Liverpool, I'm not sure if some of the younger ones I can hear are scousers or if they're from PolandMy boyfriends personal favourite is when I say chicken tikka masala
It varies in Warrington. People from the Stockton side sound very posh and almost neutral. People swaying toward Birchwood sound like Mancs, where as people from the little deprived areas sound a bit scouse. Then there is a vast majority that sound nasally and quite camp. A lot of women talk like Sporty Spice was an observation I once made here.
London is the same for accents. So many. People from North London sound more soft. South is quite strong. Then you have your posh accents, your roadman accents - Which all vary depending on ethnicity. The Asian roadman is quite distinct and also nasally - not keen.
I come from the East Midlands and don't have an accent at all, but I love all accents scouse is my fave though.
I’m Glaswegian and my accent is very strong but I do speak properly on the phone and for my children’s sakes. They are both on the autism spectrum and have unusual, almost American-like accents (probably picked up from TV). I always find it hilarious when they say something in Weegie slang because it sounds so different coming from them. My husband has an Ayrshire accent which isn’t too different from mine just a bit softer, he obviously has some of his own slang terms though. He says my accent sounds harder than his and it’s very obvious when we’re having a rammy.
I find this interesting because my niece is being raised bilingually. She was a bit slower to speak (which is apparently normal for bilingual children) and when she started to speak she wouldn't always talk in English, so I couldn't always understand her.
However, she's 3 now and only seems to speak English, even though she can understand everything her mum says (her mum's first language isn't English). I wondered if it was because she's cottoned onto the fact that everyone other than her mum only understands her when she speaks English.
Do you find your children speak both languages - or do they tend to favour English more?
I'm from Essex and most people I meet think I'm from London straight away. I don't really like my accent much, I hear myself recorded and I'm likeYep, those of us in and around London can have quite different accents as well. North and West London accents tend to sound softer than South and East London accents. Being from Essex our stereotypical accent is quite nasty.
Personally, I love Geordie
. I will say that the hammed up fake Essex accent that Gemma Collins and other mats from towie use DOES NOT represent us. It's made up horse tit and cringe worthy to listen to in my opinion.I'm from South Manchester, and have a proper Mancunian Oasis r kid accent. We now live in Cheshire and my son has a little Cheshire accent, he doesn't sound common in the least. It's funny how border to border it differs
I’m Welsh. I don’t like the accent I have though as it’s not very strong.
They tend to favour English more, same with us siblings as children. My mother always spoke in her native tongue not that she couldn't speak English, she just preferred it. My father flipped between 3 languages his native tongue, my mother's and English. He was bought up in Manchester from the age of 12 and again he didn't really have an accent either.
