Ways of Talking about How you Talk
777
Trying to get a grip of different accents
since I realize I'm changing accent depending on who I'm talking with
and Miss Cupcake gives a good, entertaining map
of at least english language(s)
by maybe imitating the imitations by Amy Walker
which I didn't knew about until now.
