ngl I’m surprised we haven’t gotten a “the more north you go the more south you get” bit with Florida yet. He’s done different parts of other states as individual personifications and I think it’d be so funny for Gov to walk into a meeting and Florida not be the usual Florida. Throw him for a loop.
#North Florida just trades his bucket hat for a backwards baseball cap and his sandals for boots#Those are the only differences still wearing the American flag swim trunks and tank top#Gov thinks the southern accent is part of a joke for a solid 5 min before realizing it’s dead serious#He just figured out how to handle regular Florida & Miami guys he can’t do this again#also using this to push Florida has a mullet propaganda#Like Austin and Texas have their compromises#This was Flo’s with North Florida#wttt florida#might move all that up into an actual post at a later date idk#wttt#welcome to the table

to everyone who answers my random question on accent, thank you! Majority on Tumblr said Spanish, but most of the people I asked outside of Tumblr said Italian. So fuck it, I’ll leave this comment section opened to two days and you can comment whatever accent you want Turzamoth to have (this is for you @blauwu ), I’ll provide some background for you now:
Turzamoth is the Demon Lord of Lust and is the longest running Demon Lord in power. He burned down a village due to someone not repaying their deal. He’s the only Demon Lord that has minions, if you want more detail read the old version of ‘the Demon trade’ on my wattpad.

dimitri learned most of his duscur from dedue. dedue is from a working-class family from the duscur border. dedue's border-town working-class duscur accent is inflecting dimitri's Literal Royalty Accent faerghan, where most bilingual faerghans would be starting from a working/merchant-class west faerghan accent. never mind that learning a language from one (1) native speaker who is himself not fully fluent in your first language is going to result in a weird-ass idiolect by nature.
what i mean to say is that when diplomacy reopens, the king of faerghus can negotiate (& makes a point of negotiating) in duscur, but he sounds 1) like a hick and 2) fucking weird
#bird original#fe3h#i like to think about the specifics of language and accent#in a highly-stratified highly-regionalized society that seems to have relatively little travel outside the noble & merchant classes#its time for birds late-night fireemblem posting again#dimitri tag#dedue tag#fe3h tag#dedue starts off with an Utterly Bizarre accent in faerghan for the same reason#partial fluency in west faerghan/faerghan-duscur trade pidgin dunked directly into Royal Class Formal Faerghan#although he's under much more pressure to match the diction he's surrounded with :(

it’s a shame the the star wars prequels are objectively… not great (and good god the phantom menace is much more racist than I had remembered), because they do raise some interesting points about the inherent fragility of democracy, how the engine of fascism uses fear to turn even pacifists and diplomats into radical militants, and the inevitability of war if a government invests too heavily in their military. but instead of thinking about that I just have the stupid one liners and “I hate sand” running around in my head on a loop.
#star wars#negativity#I guess#tbh this is kind of a joke#I do actually like rots#and aotc is okay there’s just some weird stuff#tpm doesn’t get a pass though the trade federation aliens with their bad accents and the squinty eye design is just too much to deal with#plus the whole thing with jar jar binks and HIS accent

anyways my friends activated my conlang brain and I've made smth insane as usual
red is influences, blue is Elezen-family languages, green is like a mix bc I see the Alliance cities as having a trade language (that critically is limited to them).
I see Duskwight as a separate language from Black Shroud Elezen (but sharing a lot - easy enough to learn for those speakers). Coerthan and all its derivatives are a whole different language under the Elezen umbrella and isn't mutually intelligible with BSE. Because they split so early, they probably don't share much more than root words and etymologies; within the same family so not difficult to learn for other speakers of Elezen languages, but very distinctly different.
(also I'm not listing them but the branches extend to include other diaspora Elezen languages)
#saint.txt#long post#ishgardposting#I'm sorry this is so hard to see lmfao I told you people you would regret activating the unhinged part of my brain#anyways additional notes:#Duskwight is to Old Elezen what Icelandic is to Old Norse; It's the closest language to Old Elezen.#Old Ishgardian was probably heavily influenced by Dravanian but the church post-Ratatoskr probably tried to purge a lot of it.#Ysayle and the heretic faction probably use Dravanian-derived words on purpose and may have restored a lot of the old words as slang#and as shibboleths.#Liturgical Ishgardian as you'd expect is spoken in churches and by clergy. It's their version of liturgical Latin.#Proto-Ishgardian *probably* wasn't using Old Hyur as a prestige language so its influence was probably limited#(it probably wasn't like English with French)#Alliance Trade Standard is a prestige language in Ishgard for nobility but proficiency varies. Most Ishgardians prob. don't speak it well.#imo Ishgardian and Duskwight both use different alphabets derived from the Old Elezen ones#w/ BSE either adopting the ATS one or having two scripts (the new ATS and the old Elezen one). Probably dialect-dependent.#Duskwight derived theirs from Golmorran and Ishgard from Old/Liturgical Ishgardian bc that's what the Enchiridion is written in.#the friend I'm building this with posits that BSE uses a lot of obtuse speech (verlan basically) for cultural reasons re: elementals.#Ishgardian forms dialects like crazy bc of the geography but there's a lot more interplay and movement of speech around than#you'd think bc of the movement of soldiers from different High Houses and places around the Holy See constantly#High Houses each have their own specific slang and jargon and you can get surprisingly specific placing where in Coerthas someone is from#and what High House he works for based on his accent and what military slang he uses.#the Coerthas-Shroud pidgin/creole refers to the zone between North Shroud and Coerthas where the two languages intersect for trade reasons#and mix together.#BSE mixes with a LOT (padjali / duskwight / coerthan in the north / thanalan languages in the south /#moon mi'qote languages / hyur in general) depending on region and thus has a *really* broad array of variation.#City Ishgardian as a dialect is facing huge change atm bc of the massive influx of Coerthan refugees.#bc of the Calamity and the Horde a lot of local Coerthan dialects went extinct very quickly.

i need you, yes you, to understand something very important about boogie. shes lived in the deep south for around 200 years. she has a disgusting southern accent. it's nasty. she talks like a civil war reenactor. "i do declare" ass woman.
#caw caw#my ocs#thinking about her telling clarissa that her desire for power is the reason she'll never have any#in her antebellum era southern accent its cracking me up#adam doesnt have as strong an accent cause he likes to think hes a modern man and has kept up with modern speech patterns#but boogie doesnt give a shit lmao#i mean her accent is nasty in many ways. it's got traces of several different languages and eras tucked in there#like idk her exact history the way i do dorians. she started in northern africa and somehow ended up in america. i am unsure how#not through the transatlantic slave trade i know that

what languages does asheera know?
signed,
someone who's filling out their dnd character's languages
Common, Orcish, and Goblin!
Have fun, languages are my favorite and constantly underutilized element of TTRPGs.
#hey you can ask me things!#oc: asheera#I actually have so many problems with “common” but just treat it as a trade language/lingua franca and make notes about accents lol

I wasn't sure about Drayden in episode 2, but listening to them fan out over Davrin won me over lmao
they're just like me fr
#vows and vengeance#also hearing Bellara's american accent in the teaser really threw me off#its so interesting that there's so much more of it in veilguard#like its an accent we associated most with dwarves but I wonder if that's going to be a thing in the north#maybe especially around tevinter since they have such close trade with dwarves?#granted it could also just be how they decided to cast the actors this time

cooking up some beans for year 10 snowmelt!
#pixel cats end#including beanbox possibilities because im excited about them!#Parade and Parker can make voids but since both beans are trades that won't happen this time#watercolour solids are still good though#really hoping for a blue-eyed albino from the other two too#or at least a grey with black/indigo accent colour

yeah also like… it’s the difference between renovating a house with good structure and good bones (once you get the asbestos and lead paint dealt with) and a shitty building that may as well be made of cardboard, like why am I even bothering, at some point you may as well tear it down and start over
i think the key difference between george lucas’s star wars and disney’s star wars is that lucas is a man with an ideology. someone with a point of view, and all that entails. which comes with ideas of revolution, anti-imperialism, challenging the status quo, cultural appropriation and racist stereotypes. complex and contradictory ideas because that’s how artists are: complex and complicated people. disney is not. disney is a corporation. a corporation can’t have ideology, because ideology defeats the purpose of profit. and when the only thing you do is to turn on the movie manufacturing machine before you sit down and plan what ideas are you trying to convey to the audience, then your results are going to be washed out corporate garbage. and because when you’re a giant corporation who only cares about selling to the widest audience possible, you can’t take sides. you can’t decide on an idea. because you want to sell your product to people who are on the entire political spectrum. which results in movies without ideology, without purpose, without soul.
#to me a lot of filony’s latest ideas are like those rennovations you see on tv shows where they took an absolutely gorgeous old house and#proceeded to make a series of very strange decisions with questionable taste#they cost a lot but it was mostly a waste of money and they tried to scam the few trades people they did hire out of their pay#and the whitewashing of the clones is like instead of taking the aspestos out of the old house they procceesed to add some instead#and then with finn and rose and poe’s characters they were like let’s used uranium paint for the accents
