-I was trying to write in shorthand to cover fairly detailed goings on. obviously, autist shorthand puts an emphasis on different things than neurotypical shorthand.
-a quick scan and i don't know about slang, but there's a lot of forestry specific terminology in it.

>>1094
give me something to say, i'm shit at winging it.
although i'll almost certainly open with "ayup" which is northern english (pred. Yorkshire) slang for "hello".
i was born in scotland, but from the age of 7 i grew up in yorkshire so scottish inflections don't come naturally to me (although i can slip into them if i'm having a brief exchange of words with other scots, or if i'm drunk off my tits).

SAY HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY EVEN THOUGH ITS A DAY LATE AND HAPPY VALENTINES DAY SAVVY.

Kidding, kidding, haha.

All narcissistic requests aside, you could do the navy seal copypasta or something about the woods/forestry/moss.

sorry this is taking longer than expected. i spent ages trying to read from forestry books and kept tripping over my words, finally managed to record a reading of the prologue of seven daughters of eve, and realised the audio quality from my cam mic is shocking, so i'm going to have to record on my mobile and upload…

"It would seem the reporting of Putin's alleged autism is geared towards working on the unspoken prejudice against those on the autistic spectrum which permeates though society, in order to slander a political opponent.
The perhaps unintended off-shoot of this is that they could be seen as arguing for the inverse - that through guilt by association to the ideological enemy, to the international "bad guy", the unreasonable despot, there must be something wrong with others on the spectrum, something irreconcilable with the general public.
And just like that you've made a new enemy.
We live in a world where we are forced to adhere to the view that non-binary genderfluid diversity is not a disease, and not a lifestyle choice, but simply another way of being. Yet unquestionably, everyone (including many on the spectrum) accept that high-functioning autism is a disorder.
Note, this is feminist agenda, articulated no better than by Simon Baron-Cohen, academic, feminist, Jew, with his Empathizing-Systemizing "Theory".
His theory purports that men tend towards the systemizing, women towards the empathizing. I won't touch on how his crude, biased (mis)understanding of empathizing skews his theory (even in the case of Autists), but the upshot of his theory is that the extreme systemizing, hypermale brain "may be symptomatic of Asperger's", et voila, the psychology of the male is labeled a disorder."

I just listened to it again and I don't think I burped. I was taking a gulp of water a couple of times. My burps would've been a lot louder.

oh yeah and sorry for missing out the shout-outs.

there is such a variety of accents in Britain that it's not entirely false to view most British accents (excepting received pronunciation) as non-standard.
same goes for american i guess, again a variety of accents even though they're spaced out over a larger area.
if you're saying you speak standardized american english, that's a pity.
why don't more americans have jodie foster's accent?

There's not much to touch upon really, he just deliberately conflates two types of empathizing into one entity.
The times he has admitted there are, seem to have been lost to the sands of obscurity!
As someone who's read and tracked Cohen for years (including reading his word-salad popular science book on empathy, which is nearly all speculation and devoid of studies bar his own) I can say he is the singlehandedly most averse-to-accountability academic I've ever had the unfortunacy to know of; pulling quotes that make autists look sympathetic from circulation, working with that idiot Attwood to ret-con his statement on autistic suicide so that he could ''agree' with Grandin's mother's speculative essay on the 'autistic, paedophillic, human-computer rapist', when he previously did not explicitly outright say anything of the sort.
Cohen is a bully, alien to the proper conduct of discourse, who browbeats his colleagues and the media into a frenzy of ferverous disdain for the autist, even if they are also advised in a caveat by him not to be too public with this, for true to the ways of the Talmud, "even our enemy is our friend" (referring to the neurodiversity movement, who they actually despise but see as useful idiots).

Neurodiversity is indeed a moronic enough ideology that I would never recommend anybody adhere to it, for that would be falling indirectly into the hands of the Cohenim clan. In affiliating with the public face of neurodiversity ala Grandin, you also affiliate with its private face, being the fiery shekinah of his desire to see the autist race set alight in revenge for the inquity wrought upon his race by the biggest "autist" of them all, Hitler, the original hypermale.

And have my autism-riddled nerd voice read this while you're at it.

>>tfw hearing English accents

>implying Autphag's accent is English

people get touchy when the term "English" is used to describe the whole of Great Britain. Scots and Welsh certainly aren't, and the Cornish insist they aren't either.

Anyway, feel like recording something yourself?

>>1135
I'm Scottish, yes, but my accent is English having lived their and grown up there for far too long before returning to Scotland.
Autphag has been fully brought up in Scotland, so his accent is Scottish.

And don't worry about stumbling on your words. Like I said, I stumbled on words trying to read other peoples' writing so I just found some of my own. It's by-the-by that it happened to be on Putin's autism, you don't have to try and make a response to it like Autphag did.

The problem with me trying to find something for you to read is if you have the same problems as me, I might give you yet more writing you'd mash your words over.

I honestly think the best way to hear your natural voice would be for you to just write something - anything - no matter how unsubstantial it is.

failing that, read this. just click on the pic to "look inside" and scroll down.

i picked this because this was one of the first books i read when i was 7, following the really basic short story books that were written for learning to read in the first place (after this, i read the hobbit).
the giggler treatment is great. i've been meaning to get it for my younger sister… and for me to nostalgia.

>>1139
>>1140
>>1141
lmao
didn't Chris Chan pull something like this, trying to act all ghetto black?

>>1143
i've noticed that the american version of the giggler treatment takes time out of the story to explain differences in vocab. i don't like that.
you might though.

>>1143
My accent has been variously described by other Scots as an 'accentless Scots accent'. That is, it's closer to standard English, some of it contrived, than colloquial, dialectical Scots.

My mother was raised in Morningside before moving to the ghetto in West Lothian, so she has the same accent. It's meant to be gentrified and upper-middle class. It's also what my grandfather ended up talking like, 10-20 years after his emigration from Poland.

My dad's side of the family have junkie-like towerblock-lumpenprole accents typical of Broomhouse and Wester Hales; only my younger sister, strangely enough, speaks like this.

>>1158
I meant compared to other Scots. Of course it'll sound thick to an American.

Most other Scots however remark they can't tell which region I come from, because I just 'sound like every other pompous, middle-class twat.' That's despite being raised in a working/underclass area.

>>1161
There are about 10 different prole dialects in the Central Scotland region alone (which is an area with a population of about 3-4 million, where most of the major cities are like Glasgow and Edinburgh), about 5 or 6 of which are just variations of the predominating dialects in both those cities. Even the Borders region that borders (as the name implies; it has a population of about 300,000) England has its own slang dialect, which I managed to pick up a few terms from while there.

This is not even counting the Highlands (the remaining 700,000 people), which has a bunch of tiny different Gael-Norse creoles mixed with prole slang, all spoken by about 20k speakers or less each.

>>1158
i really liked your reading of the giggler treatment. you changed the way you read it in comparison to your first reading, it sounds a lot more suited to story telling. i wish i could change my inflections like that for reading to my sister… i've only occasionally read for her, and i still read it like i'm reading a political manifesto.

if you think Autphag's accent is thick… haha
check it

here's an example of a thicker yorkshire accent while we're at it:

i don't consider South Carolina to be teensy.

my favourite scottish accent is that on the outer hebrides or western isles (lewis and harris), it's brilliant. i'm never going to get an inverness, black isle or easter ross accent. it just doesn't chime with me.

wales is actually ok. I like their accents too.

>>1173
the guy in that first video seemed to have promise, but then he outed himself as a jew… nahh, anyway his humour seemed to rely far too much on repetitive sound effects and impressions to beef out what little substance was in his piece. he also came across as overly sentimental and not that… grounded in reality. having said that, maybe there really is a big difference in how kids grow up on either side of the pond.
i just found it surprising how even though he was concentrating on the loser, it still seemed to be the hollywood's take on the loser.

the second guy… don't really have anything to say. sure, it works as a piece of prose but i didn't really find it interesting to listen to.

oo, the third one caught my attention. i recognise that song. i wonder why she used it.

anyway, your point wasn't the content of each category, rather their general outline and how they aided you in developing your voice.

The reason I posted that Yorkshire vid was because of its heavy use of dialect. I disagree with you saying it's boring, but I guess that's just personal taste.

Here's another vid for yorkshire accent.

Yee I only skimmed them to see if they showed the sections properly, the only one I've fully watched is the Metamorphosis and that was a brilliant interpretation of what Kafka was trying to express, I felt.

I can't understand Sean Bean either, his interviewer speaks with clarity however he most certainly does not.

I have a poor time understanding accents. I was born and raised in many small towns around Kentucky which is really a border state on the North/South or the Midwest and the Southern states, sometimes people consider it Southern, others do not (as a long time resident, I will assure you it is most DEFINITELY a Southern state.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbJZt5xLJs0

That's about as thick as the accents go there. Then I moved around in Freshman year to California, where people talk a bit faster and crisper and are just…I dunno, completely different people (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YF7V4xZdH8). Sophomore year was back in Kentucky, Junior year was in Vancouver, Washington which was right across the river from Portland (basically just watch Portlandia to get an idea of what it's like- it's an eerily accurate but slightly over-exaggerated depiction tbh lel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCHAcplVurQ) And now I'm in Indiana which is just generic America.png

Point being I've never really been exposed to very thick accents in the slightest and therefore can't really understand people who speak with them.

Craven, check it, I bet you'll enjoy this vid.
