Jean Luc Picard's fake French accent.

Actual French accent doesn't even come close.

Mine, of course.

Isn't that high or drunk Boston accent

A tie between Japanese and French.

I've got a thing for Welsh women. Specifically, Eve Myles, Torchwood of course but primarily Merrill in Dragon Age 2. So damn cute.

I'm partial to both Colombian and Namibian accents atm

I've always enjoyed a stout Minnesota accent. Very cosy and fun. Sexy... Is a bit beyond my use case.

[โ€“] MXC48@lemmy.ml 2 points 14 hours ago

As a French speaker I think Italian is pretty sexy, however French is also considered as a sexy accent ;)

There is a certain Australian accent the just drives me wild. There are others that don't ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

[โ€“] ComradePenguin@lemmy.ml 3 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Women speaking south-western Norwegian accent. The one from Sandnes is my weak spot. It's very soft and feminine.

[โ€“] Frostbeard@lemmy.world 2 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

That's my hard pass for some reason. Or did you mean when that dialect speaks English?

[โ€“] ComradePenguin@lemmy.ml 1 points 7 hours ago

When it is spoken in Norwegian. For some reason it just makes women sound softer, warmer and even more feminine to me. Maybe it's because of associations, no idea ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

There was this Imgur post going around with this girl talking to a goat. Real molasses in your ear. Pure coalminers daughter according to one comment.

Cant find it now sadly

[โ€“] iz_ok@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

One that isn't yours. No offense.

[โ€“] davidgro@lemmy.world 15 points 21 hours ago

I actually think that's a universal truth. One's own accent is boring or even feels "non-existent" (it exists) but it may be very attractive to someone else with a different one.

There are multiple Scottish accents. You'd have to pick which one! Perhaps the most widely recognised would be Glaswegian.

[โ€“] sanguinepar@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

Though probably not the most widely recognised as sexy ๐Ÿ˜

[โ€“] BlindFrog@lemmy.world 7 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

I have a need for more Scottish accents in the movies I get recommended :<

Shrek is love, Shrek is life.

[โ€“] sanguinepar@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

Yeah, but Shrek's Scottish accent is horrible.

@ambitious_bones@lemmy.world

@wuphysics87@lemmy.ml

which one though? I can guarantee you're not talking about Ayrshire (mine) or (most) Glaswegian. North & Islands are pretty good though.

[โ€“] ambitious_bones@lemmy.world 1 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Whats the one Frankie Boyle speaks?

[โ€“] determinist@kbin.earth 1 points 10 hours ago

he's from Glasgow, however almost all Scottish people, if they depend on depend speaking to make a living, change their accent a bit and we tend to speak more slowly. to me, he sounds quite mild and proper. still Scottish, i can tell he's from Glasgow ish but his accent isn't strong. also, he's speaking slowly. Our accents vary a lot here. I grew up 35 miles from Glasgow but people there couldn't understand me a lot of the time when I spoke.

I had to throw that into a translator, I barely know a little shimaore which is not even exactly kiswahili. What did you mean ?

[โ€“] Dr_Vindaloo@lemmy.ml 3 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Ah, I assumed only a Kenyan would answer Kenya lol. It means "stop deceiving people" meant jokingly

[โ€“] Hadriscus@jlai.lu 3 points 12 hours ago

yea heheh this is essentially what I got with deepL. No I only have been on a couple stopovers in Nairobi.... women are beautiful... and like I mentioned they speak a close cousin of the local language over here... which I find very sexy. Both in kiswahili and english btw. Are you from Kenya ?
