That kid that emulated the british accent in english class
>tfw that kid was me
i went to school in the US for a few years and had multiple people accuse me of not actually being British
>the "British accent"
We have thousands
I have seen Egyptians trying to do it
Don't be daft, you know what I meant.
My acquaintance in High school went to England for a British lit field trip and came back more British than the German queen. This is the same cocksucker who smoked pot a couple times and told me Pink Floyd was the meaning of life.
Fukken clowns eh?
>ay up t'lad i wah jus goin pub for a mo
wow canadians are good at accents
had guy named Tuna in my class. our teach once called him choona.
tf
>start to sound more and more like norf f.c fan with every year
I went through a phase like that in my English classes but I wrote everything in British English because I thought I was being edgy and different
I can't stop talking in a dumb cockney accent, its addictive
Yeah, me too
Every fucking time i take the bus in London
I had an associate in my formative years that only ever spoke with a posh derivative of RP. It was patently bizarre, but no one ever confronted him on it,
God, I hated it so much. Why do people do this? What, they think they sound cool or smart or cultured? You sounds like an arrogasnt dumbarse cunt.
It’s different here. The autists always try to put on an American accent.
we had swiss kids who would talk English to each other in the break to show off
>that girl who had an extremely limited English vocabulary but was able to perfectly mimic a retarded California slut accent
The Mexicans here did that with spanish but instead of showing off they just talked shit
Why do they do that? Like 50% of the actual autistic cunts at my schools talked with american accents
that's because the members of that Latinesque race are emotional, and act on the basest of unsophisticated human instinct
>That girl who was half Puerto Rican, spoke no Spanish and emulated a boricua accent and had a Puerto Rican flag on all of her possessions
>be in english class
>only 5 students
>the 3 females seem like mutes
>teacher asks them "did you understand" after explaining something
>awkward silence
yeah we had those too
usually incels and femcels
All the teachers I ever had spoke RP.
We would get better grades if we spoke RP. Also spelling in american counted as a fail.
>english class
>i'm the only one that speaks english
every time
well your teacher was an idiot then
>We would get better grades if we spoke RP. Also spelling in american counted as a fail.
really?
we could choose eithe as long as we stayed consistent
>English professor keeps pestering me about joining the English club
>tell her fine, I'll go check it out
>come to a completely full classroom
>only seat left is in the part of the class with all the weird nerds
>class is about English poetry
>have to look for meaning and rhymes and writing dumb exercises
>the whole time, all the people with glasses around me keep talking to each other in English, making weird dumb jokes and references to stuff they've seen on leddit and laughing the way glasses-wearing nerds do
>they keep looking at me to see if I got all the funny references
Needless to say, I never attended English club again
nah, he studied english at university of edinburgh, must be clever to do that.
yup
RP?
sure, but there's nothing incorrect about the most widespread spelling form used on this planet
what do you even speak there?
and you're supposedly a UK brown-nosing Canadian
they have a mountain variant of either german, french, or italian that's different from each respective language
I'm Québécois.
Received pronunciation aka standard English in Britain.
Are you suggesting USA spelling is the most common?
likely to be, certainly more people on the planet use it than exist within the UK or Canada
Quite certain that British spelling is used in all their former colonies and Europe.
Anglo Canadians are proxy americans. They use their spelling.
meh, it really only amounts to the british having extra u's, and making Aluminum longer than it needs to be
but still, even the british themselves use American forms and words, it's creeping into their lexicon
