American accents in fantasy

that's a myth and an extremely stupid one

Your a mythcreant!

This. Jealous foreigners are just reaching now

I really hope you arent a troll and are genuinely this dense.

Everyone has an accent but if you're talking about degree of deviation from the "proper" way to speak English then yes you're right. Some parts of the US speak literally perfect English.

>people from New York sound the same as people from Texas
t.brainlet.

>film about medieval England
>an Amerimutt eyesore wearing a kilt (British) pretends to be Irish

Why are Americans so stupid?

>village of muck farmers
>all real world races fairly represented as if it were a cross section of american society

Absolutely retarded theory by retarded Americans.

>no racial tension
>no sign that this diverse society is anything new
>so it's always been this way
>everyone should be a mixed creatura by now but they're all racially pure to maintain peak diversity quotas
unintentionally based?

Apparently Brits in the past didn't speak like they did now and it developed some years ago.

That's why Americans don't speak like Brits today, we never did.

>kilt
>"british"
The welsh are not english, neither wore kilts.

The Pacific Northwest accent or thereabouts in the US and Canada is fucking based. Almost all of you people say everything so perfect, just how it's written.

Yeah this is what I meant

>wearing a kilt (British)
>a kilt (British)
>kilt
>(British)

>Watching movies in English
>Not watching them dubbed
Are you a faggot or something?

British kilts, everyone. You sure see a lot of English people wearing them.

Not really. This is what Shakespeare's English most likely sounded like.

But that was theatre, not ordinary speech. During WS's time theatre had it's own way of speaking that wasn't at all like real life.

Theater today sounds nothing like typical speech.

Roman horses could talk?

Origins to English came from Germany with the saxons

They spoke in a way that was familiar to people in London. It wasn't some special standardised way of speaking. People in the West Country still have accents resembling Middle English.

True, but it was even worst in WS's time. It's basically poems/lyrics spoken in a predetermined rythmic manner.

Wasn't there some Roman emperor who was a complete faggot and also made a horse into a general or senator or some shit?

>the West Country
ahh unspoiled by the passage of time and a land untouched by modern dentistry

>ancient greece
>ancient rome
>ancient anywhere in europe

>english accents

Nobody wants to hear Italians outside of a mafia flick.

No. Theatre speak wasn't ordinary middle english. You're confusing Shakespeare's use of common/ordinary themes which were sort of scandalous at the time with his use of proper (for the time) theatre poetic/lyrical speak.

What? I lived in the PNW and everyone there sounded incredibly generic, very "normal" American accent that you could find most places here, like mine for example.

This. If the movie is set in Greece or Italy and is in english, it should at least be in European English

absolutely seething at the truth, rp is a literally a nouveau riche contrivance. im sure they didnt sound like burgers but they were definitely rhotic, which most english accents are no longer and that alone makes american english more similar.

>everyone sounded generic
and that's a good thing. no odd sounds thrown in because too many kids took after the village retard's way of speaking

Yeah my point is that accents up there aren't really exclusive accents, most people in the country sound like them and like me in the recording with some exceptions of course.

>American accents
>american
>accents
Americans don't have accents, sillyboi.

Kilts are Danish

unironically based
thank you William Wyler

I'm talking about the accent. It sounded like ordinary people, which is what Shakespeare's players were, reading the parts in a play. They didn't invent a new accent specifically for acting.

yeah how dare those stupid americans be interested in where their families came from and lived for thousands of years, thats fucking stupid and since its illegal for modern europeans to do it now i can see why it makes you so mad

>that suspiciously Canadian-sounding shit they speak up in Fargo-land
>that verbal diarrhea they spew in and around Boston
>the half dozen variations of EYY IM WALKIN HERE they use in NYC
>joisey accent
>slave-owner's accent
>carcosan bayou accent (what did he mean by this)
>melanin-enriched speech
>that big iron wielder's Texan drawl
>hick and hillbilly accents
>then the normal-sounding stuff everyone else uses

You think American accents are more similar to English accents than English accents are? This is why you are a retard.

>fantasy world
>characters speak recognizable human languages

best description of American accents I've ever seen but clearly biased on the final point

they've literally diverged less from the source accent brainlet. theyve both changed but english english has changed in pronunciation more because of the contrivance of received pronunciation. i dont get why this is so hard form you to understand
>brits come to america and sound the same as brits in bongland
>revolution happen
>far less accent variation in u.s so being rhotic (saying the R in car, rather than CAH) stays in fashion while received pronunciation is forced in the u.k by noveau riche peasants who get rich through the industrial revolution as well as far greated accent variation, leading to it more rapidly diverging from the same "source" accent.

There would still be a Roman Empire if Caligula had let Incitatus rule.

Are you retarded? Serious question.

The point is that at the time it wasn't ordinary speech, but almost singing (whitout music, of course). Have you heard UK people reciting poetry that way? It's like when they sing, their accent disapears for some reason.

based retard

I hate hearing people who can't pronounce R without tapping their tongue

fuck retard fantasy English

When singing modern songs our accents disappear, thanks to the influence of American culture. Also poetry isn't singing. There are parts of England where the accents have barely changed in centuries. People still say thee and thine where I live, so fuck off with your WE WUZ SHAKE SPEARZ

>france
>english accent

>When singing modern songs our accents disappear, thanks to the influence of American culture.
it's because singing uses a different part of your brain than speaking retard

>they've literally diverged less from the source accent brainlet
You base this on what evidence? Americans pronouncing their Rs? Not only is that not a rare thing in England, America is a melting pot of accents from all over Europe and beyond.

Ah, the yank accent resides in the corner of every brain from birth, I suppose. WE WUZ blood is strong in you.

literally when does this ever happen

>rp is a literally a nouveau riche contrivance
Who mentioned rp? Isn't this supposed to be about what middle english sounded like?

You're not Javert... I forgot your name.

>any setting that isn't modern America
>ebonics

Here is a bunch of Yorkshire people singing a traditional Yorkshire song in a Yorkshire accent. Hmmm.
youtube.com/watch?v=u8MWb1FlODQ

Yorkshire doesn't count. It never did.

Do West Country accents count?
youtube.com/watch?v=Bjvffx-h2KM

Or Cockney?
youtube.com/watch?v=wOSseI1hao8

Nope. Doesn't count.

Thanks for proving my point. Amerimutt goblins don’t even know that Scotland is in Britain lmfao

Britain = London to 56%ers

You are thinking of Caligula, but it is a confirmed lie fabricated by Claudius and later parroted by a """historian""" Tacitus
