Fusion X. Denver Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Apparently I have a good Scottish accent, I tried it out while reading Macbeth in English for the first time and it went well. My British accent is good once I "get into character". Anything else, I just need to hear it and I think I can make a decent imitation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sploda Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 I can do German, Russian, and British/Australian Accents. I get mixed reviews on whether it is a British or Australian one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then I get preoccupied and I start all over again. ;_; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusion X. Denver Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 I try out voices sometime in the car too. If I'm ever in a tight spot in the future career-wise, I'll try voice acting. My best voice though is Zapp Brannigan, if anyone's watched Futurama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sploda Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 @DMG lolno, they are very different in demeanor, and the extent of their accent. That is my issue though, being Cajun probably has me throwing in a bit of my Cajun accent which is making it difficult to make out the difference.

Sploda Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 @Starrk We heard. @Black Cajuns (pronounced /ˈkeɪdʒən/; French: les Cadiens or les Acadiens, [le kadjɛ̃, le zakadjɛ̃]) are an ethnic group mainly living in Louisiana, consisting of the descendants of Acadian exiles (French-speaking settlers from Acadia in what are now the maritime provinces of Canada - New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, or Prince Edward Island). Today, the Cajuns make up a significant portion of south Louisiana's population, and have exerted an enormous impact on the state's culture. Acadia consisted mainly of present-day Nova Scotia, and included parts of eastern Quebec, the other Maritime provinces, and modern-day Maine. The origin of the designation Acadia is credited to the explorer Giovanni da Verrazzano, who on his sixteenth century map applied the ancient Greek name "Arcadia" to the entire Atlantic coast north of Virginia. "Arcadia" derives from the Arcadia district in Greece which since Classical antiquity had the extended meanings of "refuge" or "idyllic place". The Dictionary of Canadian Biography says: "In the 17th century Champlain fixed its present orthography, with the 'r' omitted, and (the Canadian historian) W.F.Ganong has shown its gradual progress northwards, in a succession of maps, to its resting place in the Atlantic Provinces." Cajuns were officially recognized by the U.S. government as a national ethnic group in 1980 per a discrimination lawsuit filed in federal district court. The British Conquest of Acadia happened in 1710. Over the next forty-five years the Acadians refused to sign an unconditional oath of allegiance to Britain. During this time period Acadians participated in various militia operations against the British and maintained vital supply lines to the French Fortress of Louisbourg and Fort Beausejour. During the French and Indian War, the British sought to neutralize any military threat Acadians posed and to interrupt the vital supply lines Acadians provided to Louisbourg by deporting Acadians from Acadia. The British evicted the Acadians from Acadia (which has since been resettled and consists of parts of present-day Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island, Canada) in the period 1755-1763. This has become known as the Great Upheaval or Le Grand Dérangement. At the time there was a war between France and Great Britain over the colony of New France. This war is known in the United States as the French and Indian War; it was one theater of the Seven Years' War that was fought chiefly in Europe. Only after many of the Cajuns had moved to Louisiana, seeking to live under a French government, did they discover France had secretly ceded Louisiana to Spain in the Treaty of Fontainebleau (1762). The formal announcement of the transfer was made in December 1764. The Cajuns took part in the Rebellion of 1768 in an attempt to prevent the transfer. The Spanish formally asserted control in 1769. gawd, do not mix us up with them Mississippians or Cowboys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
