What do you sound like?
Not your playing this time, but your speech! This is a bit of a silly thread to post I suppose, but when I read other people’s contributions in my head, they come out in my own accent, and I have to remind myself that that person wouldn’t actually sound like that. And then I start wondering what they would sound like in real life. Sometimes somebody will come up with a strange turn of phrase that I have to look up in an online dictionary, and I’m suddenly reminded that I’m talking to people from places all over the world that I’ve never been to. Often the dictionary reveals something really interesting about the origins of the phrase, or that it’s peculiar to a certain country. I hope I’m not rehashing something that’s been done before…
