drogheda would rival limerick if it weren't so comical, i mean how do you talk like that naturally.

cork accent is the best tbh. waterford accent is probably worse than a limerick accent

Old Boy In Network (Michael B), Tuesday, 16 April 2013 21:53 (eleven years ago) link

im very excited to know what darragh sounds like

乒乓, Tuesday, 16 April 2013 21:53 (eleven years ago) link

i have one sample of my voice, i am reading a christmas story to my toddler niece cos i was dumb enough to by her abook with push button sound effects- eventually (after the first 50 encores) it made sense to just give her a recording

the gowls are not what they seem (darraghmac), Tuesday, 16 April 2013 21:56 (eleven years ago) link

the gowls are not what they seem (darraghmac), Tuesday, 16 April 2013 21:57 (eleven years ago) link

i like the waterford one, reminds me of reeling in the years or hands or one of those programmes

Limerick one very much minded on value for money, the quicker you get through it the quicker someone will give you a fiver.

Andrew Farrell, Tuesday, 16 April 2013 22:14 (eleven years ago) link

it works and you sound great!

乒乓, Tuesday, 16 April 2013 22:14 (eleven years ago) link

idk is it representative but it's def what i sound like after brandy while performing so thanks

the gowls are not what they seem (darraghmac), Tuesday, 16 April 2013 22:15 (eleven years ago) link

Sounds good - a bit mellower and a lot less bitter than I'd imagined, but good. A wdysl is a whole lot weirder than a wdyll though, for some reason.

Ismael Klata, Tuesday, 16 April 2013 22:32 (eleven years ago) link

i'm never all that happy with either, obv brandy working for me re mellow/bitter tbh

the gowls are not what they seem (darraghmac), Tuesday, 16 April 2013 22:33 (eleven years ago) link

but we digress, the southeast accent threw me, the midulster one i'd have said was on our side, not enough variety in the dubs ones obv and missing a monaghan/cavan hod accent imo but the rest easy

always read deems posts in a 'playfully rancorous' but geographically fairly unspecific cadence

the material and setting isn't ideal for rancorous though

Nilmar Honorato da Silva, Tuesday, 16 April 2013 23:21 (eleven years ago) link

just imagine me as dunphy u know you want to

i liked the darragh recording. i had thought my grandmother's accent had faded after being here so long but it's very similar, she is from galway. she leaves me a lot of voice mails i would post but i'd feel mean making fun of her. they're mostly "hellooooo? are you there?" a guy i see at work sometimes is from NI and he sounds to me like he's constantly shouting.

public transport in dublin is so quiet until schoolkids or nordies get on.

they even use normal voice before mass up there begab

rather ugged man (zvookster), Wednesday, 17 April 2013 02:00 (eleven years ago) link

fair, fair, zvooks

xp tks harbl- i think my accent is a lil neutral after years of movin round tho, so maybe yr gran has lost it a bit? tho imo galway is quite a clear/neutral accent as they go.

buzza, Wednesday, 17 April 2013 02:54 (eleven years ago) link

idk u carry bricks in one and it's a heavy accent i was kinda in a hurry to get the sentence out maybe

the gowls are not what they seem (darraghmac), Wednesday, 17 April 2013 02:57 (eleven years ago) link

i'd recant it even so, because the accents aren't heavy.... they're a curious mix, lyrical but with the odd edge i spose, and the vowels are fuckin evrywheah
