Most annoying accents?

[thetrooper]

Anything from Northern Norway.

I'd say the Stavanger/Sandnes accents.

The strange thing about annoying accents is that once it is spoken by an attractive female, it automatically loses its annoying quality.

So true.

Not true at all! Have you heard a strong New Jersey, New York, or Boston accent? Spoken by a woman, they're as vomit-inducing as spoken by a man or ugly woman.

As an Englishman, naturally I feel we have a whole range of accents (Scouse, Geordie, Brummie). But I can't really distinguish between New Jersey and Washington or whatever. It's just an American accent to me. So I'm going to say American in general, because I can't tell where they're from in America. They just all sound annoying to me. And Geordies and Welsh people sound dreadful as well.

 

[Quinzy]

oh my, where to begin.
i'll do ireland first i suppose:

any of the irish chav accents
itinerant
bogger (western farmer ie; one that works in a bog)
cork/kerry accent (like an itinerant trying to speak french)
donegal accent (a horrid version of Northers)

but i love Northern accent and the newsreader style Dublin accent

Actually, a strong Boston (actually Somerset, but it's close enough to Boston) accent spoken by a pretty girl is worse than by a man or an ugly woman. The pain of seeing someone so pretty with something so awful exuding from her is enough to make one's head explode.

 

[Underseer]

Actually, thick and heavy accents from the northeast part of the U.S. annoy me simply because it's very difficult to tell stupid people from smart people. To name an example, a highly intelligent person with a thick Brooklyn accent sounds exactly like a stupid person with a thick Brooklyn accent, at least to me.

 

[Swedishguy]

Värmländska and Gotländska.

 

[Grisu]

guys from saxony give me the creeps

also Zürich dialect is atrocious along with St. Gallerisch

 

[Gainy]

Any accent spoken in an arrogant manner really pisses me off, I guess the same goes for most people.

There is no point listing various accents like Rossi has, as they are only accents that have been heard by the list-er... which is clearly a bit limited in "some people's" cases

cork/kerry accent (like an itinerant trying to speak french)

...although i've not met an arrogant chap from that area, so I kinda like it.

It bugs me when white guys from the suburbs try to sound black ('Yo hommie', etc.). They aren't fooling anyone (most of them they still clap on 1 and 5), and they aren't speaking English.

Ye'uh, we git dat in da UK too', home boy.

 

[cegman]

My roomates hungarian teacher has the most annoying accent I've ever heard.

 

[Bozo Erectus]

Lately Ive noticed that most American blacks dont pronounce the letters T or D, unless theyre at the start of a word. If theyre in the middle or the end, theyre silent. Especially D. Perfect example of this: Condi Rice.

 

[AL_DA_GREAT]

Värmländska and Gotländska.

Yeah these are bad. Our school nurse is from Gotland. It is an entirely different language.

Yes, how in the world can ''flytta på dig tjockis'' (Move it, fatto) become ''Fly' på'la tjockis''?

Like Ali G?

What does clap on 1 and 5 mean?

EDIT: I forgot to mention it before, but black American English is the second most ugly speech in the US.

 

[Bigfoot]

^ It means they dance like white guys (no rhythm).

 

[Stolen Rutters]

I actually enjoy hearing foreign or just different regional accents. I thought it was neat when I was a kid that there were so many different ways to say the same basic thing.

The only ones I don't like is when they mumble their words and string them together too much. It's too hard to make out what they say. You don't need to have an accent to do that.
