Originally posted by Freddie2004No clue, though it sounds like a bunch of sexual inuendos to me. Perhaps, I'm just sick. But anyway, I'm clueless. In fact, I don't even know what this accent with rhymes that you lot are talking about is. "What's all this then?" Someone help me out. 🙄

Let's invite all the Americans to this thread...
Here we go:
"Hullo Guvnah!!! I was down at da Piccadilly when I came across this daft mum screaming 'Ow bloody Hell'. I swear she was all sixs and sevens"
How was that? Pretty awful, eh?
I'm from California....Dudes?

I think that everyone should have to type how they talk. Kirsey has the right idea. He types ghetto. I think English people should type how they pronouce things. For example in the previous passage. "Ow, bloody hell" would become, "Aw Bluddy Ell." And other nationalities as well. It would make things more interesting.
But of course we'd run into the problem that everyone thinks everyone else talk strangely. I'm sure the English think Americans sound pretty dumb. So, in order to do this, everyone would have to find out how they sound from someone else, then learn to type it phenetically. As that would be too complicated, I suggest we ignore this idea.
Wait... why did I write this again?😛
I was about to hit the frog and toad to head to the battle cruiser for a couple of nelson mandelas, but then the trouble and strive called me back for me kidney punch. It was only when I got back that I realised that me mutton jeff currant bun had half inched all the bleedin inspector morse.
That's about the best I can manage of the top of my loaf of bread.

Heahr in row dilan we kinda mangle up owa Ars and Ayches. The rest we kinda slur togethha.
Jeet yet? (did you eat yet?)
Yowda heah? (You out of here? (leaving))
Chupta? (What you up to? (what are you doing))
remembah? Septembah, leaves fall in 'auwdem'
Also, it is very different than 'Bohston', so don't confuse the way we talk here with a city 120 or so miles north. If they had a friend named Bob, they would call him 'Boawb' We call him 'Bahhb'.
