I was just wondering what everyones favourite accents were on here, and i wasnt all that sure where i should put this so appologies if its wrong.

i particularly like the irish accent, but i hate the male irish accent... dont know why.

I like lots

British, Irish, French, German, and whatever accent they have in Singapore (I'm probably thinking of some sort of Chinese accent) is kind of cute too.

Do we Canadians really have accents? I've never noticed it.

Just slightly, you can hear

Just slightly, you can hear it a bit on some people. =P  When I was playing World of Warcraft with a group of people, we were all using headsets to talk to eachother and I asked the other girl if she was Canadian and I was correct!  I could tell the way she said some words.  I think i'm pretty good at distinguishing accents.

AUSTRALIAN

I <3  the australians.  .. i just love australia in general but for me australians win for sexiest accent on the planet. i also happen to think the scots an amazing accent as well.

 

Sidenote: I keep denying that we Canadians have accents. Maybe the newfies and the french but thats about it.

Hum...let me think...

Hum...let me think...

I'll go for the british, dutch,  spanish ( from mexico), french from Switzerland ( ok... I got a person in my mind right now, that's why i'm so specific for this one :P),  kiwi ( I lived in NZ during amost a year) and of course russian accent. Yes, I love accents! Woman with accents are so...so...cutes and it's kind of sensual..lol according to me.

I had  two girlfriends, one from Holland and the other from Mexico, who spoke with an accent ( in english, their french wasn't strong enough...bah it wasn't really bother me)  and I loved so much when they talked, I can listen to them for hours.

I imagine that I have an accent for the majority of the people who post here: I'm a french speaker. So yes, when I speak in english...i'm not very good, but I least i try,.. i have a strong accent.

I'm British :P

I'm loving how many girls find the British accent sexy :P

I love a nice Spanish accent or Australian, some American girls have the cutest accents too though... hmmm

Hahaha i agree

I love how many people are saying it too. :P
But then again, people generally don't find accents from the North of England (Think Sheffield here or something similar) too attractive in my experience so far ha. :)

brits

i think shows like Bad Girls and Sugar Rush prove that english accents are sexy lol

accents

I'm a sucker for most accents... but that's just me. If I'm out on the street I'm more likely to think a foreigner is hotter than a local.

I'm amazed how many people have said Aussie accents are sexy. :o I'd have thought our question-tag ending (we raise our pitch at the end of questions and at the end of a sentence to ensure that the person is listening to what we say even though it's not a question) would have put people off and the way we say "no" (it sounds like "ni-o"... but I guess people think that's really cute. lol

JAMAICAN ACCENT

Hahaha thanks. The Jamaican accent is probably one of the most loved of all the Caribbean accents.

Kiwi

Kiwi accents are by far my favorite, I was in love with that accent from the first time I heard Melanie Lynskey speak.  Other accents I like though are Boston, Australian, midwestern (US), and Scottish.

Love them!

British, Irish, French, Australian and Canadian accents are so sexy! One of the girls at work moved down here from Australia and OMG, her accent is so sexy! I find myself smiling like a dork when she talks to me and sometimes I make her ask me questions again. So sexy! :)

Your arms like towers. <3

I love Irish and Australian accents the most... but really, all accents are wonderful (except for American accents- because I am American haha). 

 

Russian accents can also be nice.

accents are beautiful

i would have to say Aussie as well its just so cute. and well within the U.S. i'm going with a southern accent, ever so proper the southern belle.  I have a NY accent (i'm guessing thick because everyone knows where i'm from the minute i open my mouth....and then they make me say things like fuggedaboutit, i think its boring but people are just fascinated by it.

Katie's picture

I think I have this conversation every day in first period

this week I have narrowed my favorites down to scottish and irish and very unrefined brittish-cause they sound like the family I love,dutch-anywhere in that area because it is the most soft beautiful wording I have ever heard and finally my very own Canadian accent because they are often a mix of the entire world with a touch of something special.

My Fav.accents

ok Spanish and Italian are in a tie for number one. And by Spanish, I mean like Latin Spanish, because I'm from FL born and raised btw. But I also like Spain (spanish) accents. Example: Penelope Cruz. Number two would be, of course, British. Example: Rachel Shelley, Emma Watson, etc.

sexiest voice ever

A FEMALE SCOTTISH ACCENT!!!!!!!!!!

I LOVE IT. I DUNNO WHAT'S WITH IT. BUT I LOVE IT.

IT'S JUST SO HOT.

 

2ND RUNNER UP WOULD BE AN AUSSIE/NEW ZEALANDER ACCENT.

LOVE YOU GUYS. 

Lone Wolf's picture

So many choices

I like American accents, hell, even southern accents are nice. I also like Australian accents, British, Italian, any Slavic accents sounds cool to me as well. But I'm a sucker for nearly every accent though, combined with a person's voice, it adds a little personality

The only problem is that some accents are way too 'contagious' to me. If I like an accent or it just has something special, I start talking with that accent after a while and it always mixes a little with my standard light Dutch accent that fades away the less I speak Dutch and the more I speak English and vice versa lol.

Easy.

British, for sure.

Anonymous's picture

Fairly easy

I'm a big fan of the Irish accent (Republic) and Irish people in general they're so funny. I also love the Australian accent it just sounds awesome.

 

Lucas's picture

This'll probably sound odd...

As I realize I'm probably the only person here to think so, but I find Czech and Russian accents very attractive, especially the Moscow one. For me, there's just something about the thick, rolling r's.
Zulema's picture

Ima get one some day lol

I would have to say british accents, then irish/scotish omg southern accents are hot lol but not a thick one like a subtle southen belle type of thing. *sigh* i cant say i have a southern accent :( thats what happens when ur TexMex lol

AND SO THE LION FELL IN LOVE WITH THE LAMB

Wa' ya mean its 'ard ta understaaaaan'?!

Wats the matter? a bit mutton? you have a lovely boat and some great mince, and i'm sure your bristols are lovely. As long as your ginger how about we go to the rub-a-dub have a pig's, if not we could always have rosie, maybe i could pick up the dog and give you a ring.

You might think i'm talking a load of old pony, but I'm only having a bubble!

Apparantly my "cockney" accent gets stronger when I go home or talk to people from home, glad to know someone finds it attractive!

Translation: What could you ever mean it's hard to understand? What's wrong? Are you slightly deaf? You have a lovely face and a fantastic pair of eyes, and a lovely set of breast as well i'm sure. As long as your queer, how about we go to the pub, and have a beer? If not we could always have a cup of tea, and maybe I could call you later?

You might think I'm talking a load of crap, but I'm only having a laugh!

Scottish

First, there was Helen Stewart, aka Simone Lahbib.  Be still my heart!  Now, I'm loving Catherine Weaver's accent (Shirley Manson from Garbage, on T:TSCC).  So yes, Scottish.  English accents, too.. from posh to cockney, doesn't matter.  New Zealand accents are also quite nice.  Like several posters have said, though, it's really more about the tone and quality of a voice.  Any accent is sexy given a lovely voice to carry it.
