Is there any particular accent that sends you hot under the collar...weak at the knees or ....
explode with sexual desire ?

I guess it has to be Italian for me.
Yes I know the men can be personally very vain, but I don't care if they only read out a menu to me....I'm gone!!!

In a new relationship, I love to write or speak in Italian or French, I find it extremely sensual, sexy and a big turn on.

So any accent you love to hear ??

Not accents particularly, but certain voices I can listen too a lot, not that any of them get me hot under the collar.

Don`t start me off Topaz, still long for that cultivated north American accent .
leogirl.

I knew I'd draw someone out !!

It's always the quiet ones, leogirl
Lol ;)

Norwegian, Oslo 1996. Sigh...

ooo, let me see! Geordie, Irish, posh Edinburgh, Spanish, Posh New England.
Though, it's more the voice than the accent. Anthony Hopkins, Richard Burton, Sean Connery; all lovely voices.
A squeaky yam yam voice doesn't do it for me.

Wilma Flintstone....

French and Italian accents do something to me.

Eviviva la signora in una cabina telefonica che indossa un basco. Lol.

qué .......... lol.

Persona.

Hai una vivida immaginazione....
Ma e divertente comunque ;)

I'm glad I was born in England......as I only speak English....That's a bit of luck....I'm not good at Foreign....

I also do BSL ....but you don't "speak" that. Even my 2 year old greatgrandaughter is taught to sign at nursery....you just never know when you might need it !

She always drives her mum mad by constantly signing "sorry"
I teach her a new sign every time I see her.
My mum taught me the alphabet when I was a child and I taught my children.

Learnt to sign about 12 years ago when I thought I might end up in a wheelchair. I wanted to still have useful employment as an interpreter..
Luckily it never came to that !

Topaz. My very active imagination is the only part of me which is still 100% fully functional lol.

I was friendly with a lady who’s young daughter was deaf and I did learn a few of the obvious things but I knew I wasn’t very good because the little girl used to roll about laughing at some of my attempts.

Same as me the Persona ;)

I do like to hear the Queens English , especially spoken by a man.... reminds me of my youth....lol

I like a lot of accents.... I think the accents from Asia and the deep south in USA are particularly attractive to me. I also love a Irish accent, certain accents from across the different regions of Scotland are appealing. Some Welsh accents hit the spot too. How can I forget the ladies from Central and South America! The Latina Lovelies!!!

I really don't find a ghetto accent nice on a woman, be it a ghetto London accent or one from one of the ghettos in USA.

Topaz....

I really did plan on doing a thread on voices, I was going to write it out today or tomorrow, but you beat me to it lol. Still might do it although it may be very similar to this, but with a Bobster take on it, hope you don't mind!

Southern Irish; Welsh; and most of all French in a rich dark brown voice....oh yes:)

Do you mean like Raymond Blanc? I love Idris Elba's voice.

Topaz..."Even my 2 year old greatgrandaughter is taught to sign at nursery"

Often the signing at Nursery / Early Years will be Makaton as opposed to BSL though there is some overlap between the two.

Hi Nigel,

Yes there is a slight overlap although Makaton is designed for people with learning or communication difficulties.. they will also use visual aids.

BSL has its own structure which uses body language, facial expressions, lip patterns etc.

Children, as you know are like a sponge , young children can pick up basic BSL very quickly . Songs are a great way to learn.
You will learn quicker if it's fun.!
My tutor was totally deaf, but had a great sense of humour. :)))

Bob,

Look forward to your post
Don't mind at all :)

I sat and chatted to the Italian barista in a local coffee shop today and he had the most wonderful voice. Much too young for me though.
