BFTD Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 I spent the weekend in Newcastle/Gateshead once and literally could not understand a fucking word that was being said to me. "I'm sorry, could you repeat that?" only works so many times before people assume you're mentally incompetent. One of the most cringe-inducing experiences of my life; my skin wanted to crawl away off my body as I grinned like a moron at anything and everything said to me. I like the sound of the accent, and everyone seemed very, very friendly, but I think I'd have a panic attack if I had to go back without an interpreter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blootoon87 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 It takes me a monumental effort to hide my utter contempt when speaking to anyone with a studenty Aberdonian accent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torpar Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 The weegie accent is awful and I'm not sure how they don't realise it. At least people in Birmingham and the West Country seem to have some self awareness about how bad their accents are. The proper London accent isn't too bad but the home counties and South coast accent is brutal "Linda-r lets go to the cinema-r" Bristol has the UK's best accent 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Geordie accent is horrible, especially within the female species, coarse as cats shite 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
