 I am currently working in a production of Cabaret and need help speaking English with a German accent. 
 These are a few words that I need some help with.... 
 TABLE, NUMBER, FIVE, WAS, THERE, CORRECT, LONDON, INTRODUCED, FABULOUS, TOGETHER, HERE, AMERICANS, THIS, BERLIN, WHY, JUST, YOURSELF, INHIBITED, EVERYONE 
 I have visited Boston on several occassions, however, I am not native to that region. So I don't think I would be of any help to you on that matter...sorry. If there is anything else I can help you with please let me know. 
 Thank you!</description></item><item><title>Re: Trade accents</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/TradeAccents/dpchv/post.htm#325319</link><pubDate>Fri, 23 Jan 2009 00:06:07 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:325319</guid><dc:creator>Ianq</dc:creator><slash:comments>4</slash:comments><comments>http://www.englishforums.com/English/TradeAccents/dpchv/post.htm#325319</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments22-325319.xml</wfw:commentRss><description>Conversation carried on in http://www.englishforums.com/English/TradingAccents/dpczb/Post.htm to leave only one thread instead of two with separate conversations.</description></item><item><title>Re: Trade accents</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/TradeAccents/dpchv/post.htm#325190</link><pubDate>Wed, 22 Apr 2009 23:06:07 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:325190</guid><dc:creator>Ianq</dc:creator><slash:comments>5</slash:comments><comments>http://www.englishforums.com/English/TradeAccents/dpchv/post.htm#325190</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments22-325190.xml</wfw:commentRss><description>Hey Marvin A., Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. Yes, there are reasons why I want to learn the most stigmatized accents; it's obviously not because of their stigma, but because up north they're "exotic" (haha!) and I think they'd be fun to learn. I haven't quite mastered the midwestern accent yet, but I'm working on it w/ a professor of mine.     Do you want to learn how to speak a Southern accent so that people from
other regions will think you're from the South, or do you want to speak
in a Southern accent, so that people from the South think you are also
from the South?    I'm not quite sure if I understand what you mean by this. I haven't really thought about the differences, but I guess I'd go with whatever leaves me the...</description></item><item><title>Re: Trade accents</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/TradeAccents/dpchv/post.htm#324989</link><pubDate>Mon, 23 Feb 2009 00:06:07 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:324989</guid><dc:creator>Marvin A.</dc:creator><slash:comments>6</slash:comments><comments>http://www.englishforums.com/English/TradeAccents/dpchv/post.htm#324989</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments22-324989.xml</wfw:commentRss><description>If you really want to learn a Southern accent, I could give you some pointers.

Is there any reason that you decided to learn the most heavily stigmatized accents? That would be like me asking you to teach me Low German. Why not learn a Western or Northern accent? They are the American equivalent of Hochdeutsch.  Also, Texas has several accents, not just one.</description></item><item><title>Trade accents</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/TradeAccents/dpchv/post.htm</link><pubDate>Fri, 22 May 2009 23:06:07 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:324959</guid><dc:creator>Ianq</dc:creator><slash:comments>8</slash:comments><comments>http://www.englishforums.com/English/TradeAccents/dpchv/post.htm</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments22-324959.xml</wfw:commentRss><description>Hey folks, I tried to post this one a little earlier today but under as anonymous. I guess the topic is not gonna appear, so here is it again. I'm not a native English speaker but have spent a considerable number of years in the US (more about myself below). What I'm looking for is an individual, native to one of the following areas, willing to teach me their accent. I'm looking for: Boston, Massachusetts area, a white middle class accent. Any Southern accent except for TX or FL area (FL I don't find very pronounced and TX I dislike; no offense intended); white middle to lower class. Male or female makes no difference. Anyway, being a poor college student like so many, I regret that I find myself unable to offer monetary compensation at...</description></item></channel></rss>
