No. And "Twa", "Seevin" and "Eleeven" in that context would not be slang, it would fall under colloquialism. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheScarf Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 (edited) Stornoway/Western Isles is by far the worst Scottish accent. Edit - 2nd worse? Thurso/Wick. Edited November 16, 2016 by TheScarf 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like a Weegie accent but they don't want to be called a Weegie so inexplicably change the pronunciation of some words. "Feeneeshed". Not in my name. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lionel hutz Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 5 hours ago, Ross. said: You should watch Limmy. "That accent" is clearly the worst. Followed by the roasters in parts of Ayrshire who use words like "Twa", "Seeven" and "Eleevin" when counting. This. Theres a lassie at Uni who has a brutal Ayrshire accent, its fucking murder 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throbber Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Can someone explain what a Dundee accent sounds like? I used to knock about there 10 years ago and always just assumed it was thick east coast, much like leith and much of Fife, since living on the east coast I wouldn't be able to tell if someone was from Dundee if I met them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
