Thanks Ingrid – I’ve just listened to your voice meme. You have a delightful accent in English! I enjoyed this … and have another movie recommendation too!

@Joachim, that’s a good idea, to answer them one year from now to check if my accent has changed. Will do that!

@winter solstice – a storytellers voice. That is a very nice thing to say. :)

@Anne : :-)

The accent is nice, you have a storytellers voice. If it was my voice I was listening too though I would likewise cringe – I hate putting on my voicemail message, it just sounds like someone else…

Wahhh!! I can’t hear you! I can’t get any sound … I could hear Grigorisgirl so I was looking forward to hearing you too.

[sorry - link removed]
I very much enjoyed hearing you!
Nice earful of a soft speaking flatlander, with an accent entirely different from the grigorisgirls accent.
Neither of the two are easy to place on the map.
You could have done worse by living in Australia trying to emulate the local version of the english language.
What’s so interesting about the british version of english is the fact that is not uniform throughout the United Kingdom. I think I prefere the scottish flavour.
Do you have an accent speaking danish? Would like to hear it.
Can we have the questions reanswered in about 1 year from now?

Ah..so this is how you sound talking english! Very brave you posted it. Oh..the first sentence has got nothing to do with the last one :-)

Well thank you all.

@Grigorisgirl – I will happily exchange my languages for your accent :)
@Zazz – voicilicious, that’s too much credit!
@Jaci – go do it!
@Anna: Thanks!
@Jill – thanks but I do hope it changes to a bit less foreigner-tries-to-speak-english accent :-)

Hi Ingrid – so nice to finally hear your voice! :) And I think you speak beautiful English too, so please don’t change it, it’s lovely.

I really like your accent :) In a way, it’s almost calming. I would listen to it again if I didn’t have to go to school.

Ingrid, this was fantastic! So THAT’S what you sound like, eh? I am tempted to do the same and post it.
