they're right tho, americans dont know the difference btwn someoen from 'road' or someone who went to eton, all that they hear is you have an 'accent' asking further the person will say from LONDON (not brixton) and thats enough for them

but were talking about accentsnot slang

But this 'Road' accent is non-descript - it's not real. It's based on slang words and the twang that goes with it.

Yep.Pray tell.... where does this accent derive from?

Exactly, ending (and punctuating) every sentence with "like", "still", "blud" and "yagetme" in that silly put-on accent, you're not going to be understood anywhere but your "endz".But I suppose most of the people who speak like that don't have any aspirations to get anywhere other than "the endz".

what all three of you are saying can be said about every accent that existsposh, cockney etc etc.your just having a stab at the way people who you despise speak, your not making any sense what so ever

Don't be silly.Your parents & teachers didn't have that accent, neither did their parents or teachers. They didn't pass it on to you.So why do you have it? It's put on, and generally it sounds pretty ridiculous.

You just made a massive assumption. Where did I say I despise anyone? I don't. I'm just intrigued as to where this 'accent' comes from really. It's just odd, seeing as it didn't exist 10 years ago unlike Cockney and 'Posh' which can be traced back through time and to a place or class.

No cos posh people ave an accent cockney people ave an accent but not so sure bout this "road accent". Its more words than an accent how can you not see that?

People put on accents to fit around people.People outside London insult Londoners when reality is Londoners are so ignorant they dont even acknowledge that theres land outside the borders of London.People talk with this so called street slang and it pisses me off. One girl I know adds some kind of stupid twang to her voice when she sees others. Talking with slang words.

[Jodie]

My sister and cousins have started on the slang word sh*t.
