I need to shape up a few accents for Speech competitions so I can have a bit of versatility. Any accents you guys know, or tips on how to do them, or think are distinctive?
Here are a few already I got down: Russian British Indian An...azn...fob  And I can sound like Stitch! Ones I need to get down: Deep South New York German Latin American Tips? Suggestions? |

Southern accents aren't hard. I don't know how to tell you how to do it, though, besides to say that you should probably be as obnoxious as possible as doing so.

 what do you think it says....if so obvious. Group: Member Posts: 1,838 Joined: Sep 2004 Member No: 52,420 |
I can sound :
Filipino Fob Indian (malu) accent Ecuadorian Columbian Russian Irish Queens like Lawwwoang Island like Bostonian like New york Like British Chinese Fob Japanese Italian-American Jewish-American Valley Girl like Far East Hampton white like Jersey Like Southeastern Texan Cali like , i`ve been working on accent and diction ....i took courses last semester as part of my vocal performance major . the thing about new york accents is that theres no one set ....the new york native can vary depending on what part of the tri-state area you live .....long island , jersey , native brooklyn( not ghetto) . for me those are the hardest accents ....including Bostonian . |

^east hampton doesn't have an accent, I go there all the time. It's just a regular long island accent.
I naturally have a really bad new york accent. Connect words like long island= lon guyland |

French accent, my accent. My accent is french/english/whatever. Bwahahaha. My accent is mixed. Spanish accent, Arabic accent, Turkish accent. I know the difference because I live and school with them (Arabs, Turks, French ...).
