Hahaha, I never overstep. I usually stop very very far away from the line – because I am scared of rolling down the alley myself.

No, not that ~exactly how. I mean things like ~voiceless labial plosive. That's what we have to know. And how phonation works and a little bit of physics with that. Auslautverhaertung doesn't even have Auslautverhaertung itself :( Re: accent. There's a dialect in Hesse that says the r like in English. It sounds like a bunch of English speaking people got lost in the countryside. And then started to speak some weird kind of German. But no, it's just a dialect. I guess that the r would be the most problematic sound – it is for me (in English! and Spanish! and German! (my dialect does uvular trill r. ~High German r it's the fricative. my phonetics teacher is fascinated because he can't do that sound. so I get to read out loud all the words that start with r. rrrrrrot. Rrrrrauch.))

strange foreign language music go!
Catalan
Basque
German (and there's always Kraftwerk and random 80s music!)

lol I always picture myself like one of those cartoon characters who forget to let go of the ball? XD IT'S WILL HAPPEN ONE DAY, I JUST KNOW IT.

I CAN'T TRILL MY R'S. my friends always thought it was hilarious because whenever I tried all that came out was like harrrhsdjkfl. My German professor took pity on me for our oral exam and was just like, it's ok. you tried. Das war schlimm. ):

:O I WISH TO BE ABLE TO SOUND LIKE THAT. alas! /o\ aks;djfasdf idk if it's because English is my primary language or what, but EVERYTHING SOUNDS BETTER IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE. EVEN IN BRITISH OR AUSTRALIAN ENGLISH.

That's what I think all the time, too. MY FINGERS WILL GET STUCK AND I WILL DIE. Or something.

So many people can't trill Rs! I can't do the Spanish R. I do all the exercises, but it just won't happen. APPARENTLY YOUR GERMAN TEACHER DID NOT GET THAT YOU WERE JUST TRYING TO FIT INTO RURAL HESSE WITH YOUR PRONOUNCIATION.

Hahaha, I just don't understand BritE. It just... idk. Inception was ok, because it was just ~one at a time. But RocknRolla? I GAVE UP. I WAS LIKE: HELLO PRETTY PEOPLE. WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT. >.>

Basque is easy, because it's only sounds we do in German, too (besides r); Catalan is okay, but Os get turned to Us and As to schwa. And Ss. Voiceless except for in between vowels. I DO NOT CARE. My teacher used to interrupt and correct me, but he's stopped doing it. EITHER I'M DOING IT RIGHT NOW OR HE'S GIVING UP.

LOL EXACTLY. but ngl, I fucking love bowling. I GET REALLY COMPETITIVE OVER IT TOO. which is totally stupid because I suck at it. XD

ALL I EVER WANTED WAS TO BE UNIQUE. WHY DID HE HAVE TO GO AND CRUSH MY DREAMS LIKE THAT.

oh man, RocknRolla. I only watched a few clips on youtube, but their accents are so heavy it's insane. Tom Hardy though, unnfff ~ boy just never stop talking please ♥ you can speak to me however which way you want

Er, what is schwa? (also, jw, is your twitter name a reference to it? *__* ALSO, WHAT IS YOUR NAME/A NAME I CAN CALL YOU, because I would call you by your twitter name because I like it except I have a really hard time spelling it correctly /o\) LOL oh man, for Spanish, I always forgot that Vs have a sort of B sound and so a lot of the time, I'd just rush my reading so she wouldn't quite catch it. XD

I thought: OK I WILL WATCH THAT MOVIE NOW AND JUST CONCENTRATE ON IT OK.
What happened: ?????????????? HEY I THINK I UNDERSTOOD A WORD.... AND ANOTHER.... THAT MAKES ABOUT 10 WORDS OF THE 93024830 THEY'VE SAID SO FAR, FUCK THAT SHIT.
ALSO I WAS DISTRACTED BY GERARD AND THARD. IDEK.

You can call me my ~actual first name, Anne :D
Schwa would be that thing: ə (who would have thought!) is ~"an unstressed and toneless neutral vowel sound" for example the "e" in "the" (in the ~normal one, not the one before words that start with vowels).
And yes, my twitter name is a reference XD And I can't spell it myself. And my ~hint is stupid, too, because I try to remember "there's wasch in it" AND THEN WHEN I THINK ABOUT IT I AM NOT SURE IF IT'S WASH OR WASCH. (my gmail is similarly difficult. I always get that one wrong.) (there is also a-schwa, ɐ, aka vocalized r (the sound used for the ending -er in most German words))

I JUST CAN'T DO THAT IN CATALA BECAUSE THERE'S S EVERYWHERE >.> Every time we take turns reading I check if the part I'm probably going to read has Ss, and if yes, I underline the ones that are voiced XD
(and as for the b/v in Spanish, just always say b, that's what most natives do – and then they end up not being able to spell; they spell every v as b and some b as v! XD)

LOL EXACTLY. I'M JUST LIKE THIS MOVIE ILLUSTRATES THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN VOICE KINK AND WORD KINK. Word kink = Knowing what the word is and using it correctly in a sentence and being sexy while doing so. Voice kink = whatever it was you said, you sounded really fucking good while doing so :D THARD THOUGH, SOUNDS GOOD IN ANY ACCENT. I MEAN, GOD, HIS VOICE DOES THIS PURRING THING EVERY TIME HE TALKS AND IT'S JUST. SO. GOOD. *___*

ANNE ♥ that is such a pretty name :DD
OOOOOH OKAY, I know what that is. I HAD NO IDEA THERE WAS A NAME FOR IT. I just always called that "the upside down e." *_* LOL I always used to spell my email addresses wrong, and so I finally gave in and settled for something that have an atrocious amounts of x's and was a coherent reference to something I liked. :P

LOL when I was younger, I had a friend who just could not say the v sound and so he'd go around calling me Bibian, and I'd be like SERIOUSLY DUDE, IT'S NOT FUNNY ANYMORE. and then he admitted he just always had trouble saying v, and I was like ...oh, I thought you were making fun of me /o\
