Working with an #acting #coaching client on an accent with material that lands so differently when more vowel substitutions are included. The entire feel of who their character is shifted. So cool to hear and see them explore those options. #ActingCoach #ActingCoaching #accents #dialects #voiceover

A woman didn’t think she had an accent. A linguist proved her wrong with just one word.

Has anyone noticed that trump speaks with some features of the #Iowan accent? I don't think it's the accent exactly, more the cadence or enunciation maybe? I noticed this when listening to interviewees at the Iowa state fair.
I then discovered that the Iowan accent is considered the most friendly and wondered if he'd adopted this way of speaking purposefully. Fake like his tan, hair, height, weight etc.
Would love to get some opinions.

How well is your local accent portrayed?
As someone who has lived in Philadelphia a long time I can attest most Hollywood versions of the Philly accent are max cringe and dead wrong.
Mare of Easttown was a notable exception that got it right.

Android Authority: NotebookLM is flirting with long lectures and British accents. “As much as we admire NotebookLM, Google isn’t resting on its laurels and continues to tweak the AI app. The latest feature in testing looks to be a new ‘Lecture’ format for Audio Overviews in NotebookLM, and there may also be a British twist on the way.”

Heh... So, I can't pull off a lot of #accents well -- except a #WWDITS vampire. I've butchered a lot other accents (as attested by my British ex). Though my Italian accent isn't too bad. I had fun speaking in #Latin with an Italian accent (but how else would it be spoken?). I also recited #HomericGreek in a sing-song accent with a touch of #Sanskrit ('cuz, #IndoEuropean). Does anyone else indulge in accents when they act out scenes? Does anyone else act out scenes?

Left myself a reminder to do something. Used Apple's AI voice recognition to do it.
Anyone got any idea what a 'Nick Faen' might be?
Because I'm supposed to order one.

Mashable: World’s largest call center using AI to ‘neutralize’ Indian employees’ accents. “Teleperformance SE, the largest call center operator on the planet, has come up with a way to mask the fact it operates in India for customers calling for support with their latest iPhone or Galaxy device. In a new report from Bloomberg, Teleperformance shared that it invested $13 million in Sanas, an […]

It strikes me that I just love the way Old Hollywood stars like Barbara Stanwyck talk, and I wish that was me...then I realize that it can be me. Practice, practice, practice, and before I know it I'll have the voice of my dreams. 😇

"Scone": rhymes with bone, or with gone? I left a couple of comments. https://languagelog.ldc.upenn.edu/nll/?p=65494
I once used the pronunciation of "scone" to illustrate a linguistic isogloss in my essay on Irish English dialect: https://www.irishtimes.com/culture/books/wasn-t-it-herself-told-me-which-bit-of-ireland-would-that-phrase-be-from-1.4434174

Funny thing last week with #accents — for context, my visual acuity and #ventral stream are stronger than average, but I've got some #AuditoryProcessingDisorder or auditory #agnosia so that listening to thick accents is like watching with subtitles that autocorrect.
An audio-only Welsh accent said "Cally Cook" but I heard the word "Kirk". Then it hit me that #CaptainKirk and #CaptainCook are both famous captains … COULD THEY BE the same name on purpose?
Guess what: James Cook, James Kirk.

Last week, as part of my #PhD program at the #ANU School of #cybernetics, I gave my final presentation, which is a summary of my methods and #research findings. I covered my interview work, the #dataset documentation analysis work I've been doing and my analysis work around #accents in @mozilla's #CommonVoice platform.
There were some insightful and thought-provoking questions from my panel and audience members, and of course - so many ideas for future research inquiry!
A huge thanks to my panel, chaired so well by Professor Alexandra Zafiroglu, to Dr Elizabeth Williams, my meticulous, methodical and always-encouraging Primary Supervisor, and to my co-supervisors Dr Jofish Kaye and Dr Paul Wong 黃仲熙 for their deep expertise in #HCI and #data respectively.
Similarly, a huge thank you to my #PhD cohort - Charlotte Bradley, Tom Chan, Danny Bettay and Sam Backwell - as well as the other cohorts in the School - for your encouragement and intellectual journeying.

a weird detail to notice, or a weirdly morbid context to notice this in…
but this is a similarity between letters that i've never noticed before
G or Г and consonant Y?
a guy speaking #NorthAmericanEnglish saying the Russian name of a done
it sounded like it started with Y
but the image showed text starting with Г

Speaking stylistically near-perfect English, but with the thickest of German accents: that's me! The accent is part of me and it remains, after decades of living & teaching in England. Some subconscious bridge to my origins, perhaps?
In earlier generations, this happened a lot among emigrants from Nazi Germany and Austria. Ernst Gombrich, Hans Keller. Listen:

Today is being stressful so I think I'll make #chatgpt write descriptions for my #wled #lamp (plus some random remixes of other stuff) and get it all posted on #Printables.
Alternately I could tear the #prusa hot end apart, again, and try to stop the leak, again, but I would rather just save up to replace the whole extruder.
On the automation front, #Homeassistant has gotten more talkative with the new release. I converted all the existing #google #tts to use #selfhosted #piper and now Ryan has come to work for us.
I do miss some of our original voices though. `language: en-in` was our newscaster, `en-au` told us about weather and #BigEar cat tracker reports, etc. (If you are still using google, have some fun with #tts #accents. Try sending `language: fr` with English text. We had that voice assigned to turning off lights and reminding us to close doors, and occasionally filling in when the newscaster was "out sick".)
