    What do you sound like when you say certain words? Want everyone on PC to know how you sound? No? Too bad! If you have a microphone, click this super special link, do the accent challenge in the spoiler below and POST IT.

  • I tried this, but gave up - I just can't speak into a microphone without a conversation partner and sound like myself at all. Somewhere between artificial and super-awkward. I could try this a thousand times and never manage to sound at all like i do IRL. So, there's no way I could give anyone a realistic impression of how I actually sound in person, that's why I gave up on this.

    Oooh I was looking forward to do this, but I was at a friend's house so I had to wait until I got home! Anyways, here it is: http://vocaroo.com/?media=vE6KAh14WjVe4vyAW

    I'm sorry about the book part, I didn't read that one beforehand so I didn't have an english book anywhere near me lol. Aaa I sound so weird XD

    I finally had time on my own, so I was able to record a message! It's somewhat inaccurate, because I put a lot of emphasis on my speech, but I think thats more or less the way I talk nowadays.

  • OK guys, I've done two different accent challenges. I'll let you guys decide: which is my true accent?

    There is this one and this one.

    and yeah like Harlequin said, your voice comes out different when you know you're being recorded, so if I sound creepy that'd be why :P

    This is terrible cause I'm up close to the microphone and it's too early to re-record and idk if my voice makes sense at alllllllll. :(

  • People have been bugging me for ages to hear my voice. And this was probably the worse way to do it because talking on my own makes me all nervous and that means my voice messes up x3 cue mumbling, random inflections and a slight lisp :S
    god i hate my voice :(
