No! I must be a victim of this!

I just can’t see you as a victim! That is part of your immense charm!

-
Awww! I suppose I'll have to tolerate it then. ;-)
-
That’s better!

Given that the very first time we communicated it was because of a gripe I posted about a fab article you wrote (now forget which) being a tad too "academic-speak", I LOVE "hearing" your Britness (and people-speak) in your posts! Wonder if your timbre is what I imagine, tho...

-
I'm going to post a video of me speaking at the University of Sydney along with the transcript in a day or two so you can tell me!

UPDATE: Helen and I exchanged voice samples via DM. I was completely off in my imaginings of hers (I'd been guessing, "If Eartha Kitt and Dawn French had a baby"
) -- and she was pretty spot-on guessing mine! No surprise there, tho, as how far off the mark is Ms. P, usually?

I read your tweets in an American southern twang. Is... is that not correct?
-
Cease and desist immediately!

Directions unclear. Now reading in s creole accent.

What kind of a British accent are we dealing with here? Cockney? Brummie? Geordie? Received pronunciation?
-
Strong elements of London & Essex but closer to received than to Cockney.
-
It could be worse. Much.
-
To my unaccustomed northern ears I imagine this to be indistinguishable from Eastenders..

With a name like Pluckrose why would one think Helen was not British? One imagines her having a garden full of roses & roses around the trellis at the front gate. Maybe a brick cottage with a thatched roof.
-
Possibly reciting poetry, laid on a blanket in the gerden. As we brits are often wont to do...

On my trip to Leeds, one of my female coworkers there purred, "I LOVE your accent". Until then, I'd never thought about my American accent.

I have google translate all of your posts to Swedish and I read them in the Chef's voice from the Muppets.

I guess it's better than the reaction of surprise you get for not sounding like Apu from the Simpsons.
