It's beautiful! Not just the accent but the dialect. I love it, anyone else?

No. It’s fucking irritating. Like Harry Enfield’s scousers.

Now Geordie…that is an accent I can listen to all day.

I love it. I have a scouse friend, I love hearing his voice.

Not for me, I can't stand any kind of northern accent.

EineReiseDurchDieZeit · 20/07/2024 19:57

I love it too and the slang

I love my husband’s gorgeous scouse accent.

I am biased being from Liverpool but yes I do love it. My French relatives said it sounds very sing songy to them when we talk.

I’m a scouser and I love the accent. Adore most northern accents tbf.

That's fair enough! It's definitely not everyone's cup of tea.
Yeah, there are definitely quite a few variations of it around, some of the young lads definitely put it on.

It seems to have changed over the years

Went to uni in Liverpool and married a scouser - when we return there we notice it’s more pronounced than ever before

I find it unpleasant.

I love it too. I had scouse grandparents and it reminds me of them!
