I doesn't matter which country or what language there is always that regional dialect that makes you cringe.
Mine include the Pineywoods Deep East Texas accent, CenLA, Creole, and the Northern Mid-West accent (think Minnesota and Wisconsin).
Annoying Regional Accents...

Annoying Regional Accents...
pretty much anything below the mason-dixon line

I think when people have really heavy accents in general.
cause its like wtf bro i cant understand you Carbuncle.Sevourn said: pretty much anything below the mason-dixon line Yeah...We all don't sound the same. There's no particular accent that I find irritating, but pronunciations of certain words drives me nuts. Like one of my aunts puts the emphasis on the first syllable when she says 'adult.' So instead of uh-DULT, it's like AAH-dult. Then she makes the A sound like when doctors make you stick your tongue out instead of 'uh.' Makes me crazy!
Also, 'warshclothes.' There is no R in washcloth, but I hear it all the time and it makes me nuts! xD

They don't really make me cringe, but I get annoyed when trying to listen to someone with a thick Spanish accent. There's a lady at work who I don't like to talk to on the phone because I can't understand her. I feel like a *** when I have to make her repeat things 2-3 times.

Then there's the whole puh-jam-uhs verses puh-jaw-mus debate. This isn't a shark story! There are no 'jaws' in pajamas!

I know it's not everyone :(, and yes I have. Some of our family friends are from Wisconsin, and they do have that stereotypical accent. chicago people have the best accents

Fenrir.Enternius said: Everyone from the past generation in New York. Fixed, because most younger people (particularly my generation) are beginning to lose the heavy "New Yawka" accent, as they pick up "traditional" accents from media. I know because I'm from New York, and most people I went to school with didn't have a noticeable accent. Some people who came from New York City specifically, seemed a little more prone to the accent. Anyways, I think West Houstonians have an annoying accent and dialect (and I live in Houston now). another word pronounced wrong... my husband says 'worst' when he means 'worse'. It drives me absolutely insane!
ie. This hamburger was worst then the first one. Fenrir.Enternius said: Everyone in New York. |
