      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.

          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 a boyfriend in England, he was Scottish (town southwest of Glasgow) but had lived in Canada, so the accent was muted. I am from Florida with parents from Louisiana so southern but not Southern l. I liked when he got drunk because he got more Scottish and he liked when I got drunk because I sounded Southern.

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

Both in kiswahili and english btw. Are you from Kenya ?

    Jean Luc Picard’s fake French accent.

    Actual French accent doesn’t even come close.

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