Late to the party, but what can I say?<br /><br />Definitely a Bronx accent. You sound just like Woody Allen. <br /><br />(oh please, not like nobody else didn't think of it!)<br /><br />No, of course you don't sound like you're from the Bronx. You sound just like a nice SA with the English dialect. I know two families in this area from different parts of SA and they are easily distinguishable from one another (at least, to me).<br /><br />I loved the video, and all the mystery woman stuff! Skip the 900 numbers - I'm picturing you doing your own podcast with that voice. You can call it "Nubian at Night". <br /><br />Cheers!The Defiant Marshmallowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17679459676978114160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136873007049541761.post-46776575890707978412011-10-30T09:55:51.230-07:002011-10-30T09:55:51.230-07:00I would give a lot to sound like you.

I've gotten better at telling the Aussie and Kiwi dialects from Received English now, but I have no idea how to differentiate a South African dialect. What are the markers for South African English?<br /><br />I think it would depend on the type of 1-900 number that you worked for. Although accents do add exoticism, not all register the same response in everyone.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15891271065457242707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136873007049541761.post-85875206855687363312011-10-27T23:13:33.092-07:002011-10-27T23:13:33.092-07:00Bronx - no way..
