retina said: CarrieMpls said: whiny? Well you know, it has that "broader twang" to it. I just couldn't find a good word to describe it. i've heard other say that American children are more whiny than other children. I have no idea because I'm an American so I can't really hear an American accent but i can tell a fake American accent when i hear one. those are hedious sounding. Personally, I find American Southern accents to be very unappealing. Talk about twang and whiny. other than that I have no complaints. I love all kinds of English equally. | |

English in general is such a horrible language.
Spanish is so-o much easier to read & write. (no homonyms) By St. Boogar and all the saints at the backside door of Purgatory! | |

We speak English....therefore that is the standard. Everything else is just a bastardised version. Just my 2 cents worth 
whatever. i'm off to color with my neighbor, then i'll see how much money i have in my checkbook and drive home on the right side of the road and park in my "garage" (gar-AGE, not GAR-age). | |
