Accent Tag! You're It.

[Erinome]

Since many of us have discussed our accents, I thought I would make an accent tag video. I am hoping others here will do this too, as I think it would be a lot of fun to hear everyone's unique accents. If not, feel free to make hilarious little comments about mine.

My way of pronouncing words is technically no accent I guess...I'm no native speaker so I generally pronounce words the way I'd pronounce them in my own regional Turkish accent, although I can imitate other accents aswell, I prefer not to do so, so people don't think I'm pretentious.

When I played it back to myself, I was blown away by how backwoods I sound. It was... alarming.
