    Geordie accent (someone born in Newcastle area/North of England). Always has done.

    And one of the nicest guys out of my friends has it. :blushing:

    I love accents from all parts of England.
    I'm not big on Scottish accents, though, because I have a heard time understanding them.

    I have a southern accent myself.

    Aussie/Kiwi.....melt!

    Maine....melt (hubby snagged me with his)

    Jersey / NY.....argh (sorry guys....I have LOTS of friends from there, so I've learned to appreciate it...but it's still like nails on a chalk-board to this Southerner)

    :laugh: It's so different, particularly after alcohol consumption, that it may as well be the Norse it originated from!


    I have a strange variation on the London/Estuary accent; I picked up a lot of Northern sayings and pronunciation as a kid, plus my Dad was a Scot and my Mum is quite posh. It means I'm generally incomprehensible to everybody at some point, especially as I get more Northern when I'm with mates who are from up there.


    Makes speaking in foreign languages entertaining; never seen such a look of understanding combined with despair as when I waltzed up to the Maitre d' outside a nice Paris restaurant and asked (in reasonable French but with my usual accent) where a particular pub was.

    Met an Italian the other day. He had me at "hello."
  • Jamaican, New Zealand, and southern accents = :love:
    There's really no accent in particular that I don't like!

    Tally so far? Seems the English and Aussies have it! Actually, on that side of the Atlantic it seems. :D

    Damn, this is the third thread about accents I've seen and if the previous two and this new one are anything to go by, the Aussie accent is a clear winner, at least here on MFP anyway!! I'm not such a big fan myself, but my goodness, when an Aussie woman (especially a hot one, of which there's plenty) opens her mouth, I have no other choice but to just listen and I just melt away everytime!!!
    French women also make me melt when they speak!! I did have a thing briefly with one recently and my god, she drove me crazy when she talked!!

    And I know I'm being biased with this one, but damn the South African accent (of which there are a few different ones) is hot!!!

    But for me, the coolest accent (not necessarily one that makes me melt) is definitely the Jamaican accent!! I just love the way it sounds so laid back!

    They may annoy you but not half as much as people from Ireland or Australia would be to be told they have "British" accents! Different countries mate
