Reviews of Amy's Teaching Sessions:
"Right after the first lesson, my director told me I had already improved. It was easy to work with Amy: she has the rare and beautiful quality of being a shining person, solar and with huge energy to give..." Daniele Favilli Actor
"I have gone through speech therapy my entire life. I have also been teased about a speech impediment my entire life. No one could convince me to open up and really work on my voice, until I met Amy. She creates a very inviting and encouraging environment. Working on a "downfall" is such a venerable time but with Amy, I was always eager to receive feedback from her. " Bo Roberts Model, Actor
"Amy is a sheer delight to work with! Her 'amiable' nature and intuitive teaching style make working with dialects both an entertaining and natural experience. I look forward to training with her again and again in the future!" Mara Junot Voice-Over Specialist
"I was talking to my husband today after practicing from our tapes, and he said that this is the best improvement in accent he had ever heard from me!"

Tennessee and parts of North Carolina have a bit of a twang..I love the Mississippi accent ...it’s so easy on the ears...

I took a linguistics course in college and my professor said that the California accent is the one linguists really hate. She said that somehow, the Middle English dialect, which was presumed dead, made its way clean across the continent to the West Coast, that is, the way words are pronounced. Linguistics is fascinating! You learn how to listen to yourself and how your regional accent compares to others. I'm proud of my California accent. Accent elimination is so sad, everyone should be proud of theirs whatever it is.

Accents naturally disappear with mutual exposure, and this is just a result of becoming more connected. It's a conscious thing to retain your accent, like when I worked in Hawaii, I spoke with a standard Californian accent, but when I hung out with friends, I spoke with a more local Hawaiian accent. But I know what you mean about accent elimination. Some people or places prefer certain accents, esp in societies that are highly dependent on class, like the UK, Japan, and India, and it would be great if social status and class weren't connected to ways of speaking.

The east coast and gulf cost accents tend to be more distinct than the others, given that those are the oldest parts of the country. The upper midwest sounds almost Canadian in many ways, especially the 'o' and 'ou' sounds. In the southwest, you get more Spanish influence in the local accent. Etc.

I was told recently by a young woman in the house that I don't sound like her teachers at school. Having your accent change is just one of those things you never think about while you are living in another country, you just adapt to what you hear around you.

I was born in Maryland. After I'd left for a number of years, I came back, and heard how Southern all my friends sounded. I had lost that comfortable Maryland drawl, and picked up a Canadian "ou" from living in Northern Vermont. I think I pick up a lot of regionalisms, but only if I actually like them. I was in England once and heard a Bostonian American who had not lost a bit of his Boston accent, but had overlaid it with a British accent. It sounded HORRIBLE.
@WK-bo6qv
@WK-bo6qv 3 года назад
@@steveneardley7541 I grew up on the North Shore in Massachusetts, one of the last places other than Boston itself that still has a fairly strong (though still weak) representaton of the regional accent (though it differs from town to town). Meanwhile my dad is from Maryland, and their accent is unfortunately very, very unknown everywhere else. He has a drawl of sorts but you can only really hear it if you’re listening for it. I think the Maryland accent is fun and should get some more press. But maybe it’s for the better that it doesn’t because nobody I know from outside my area can ever get the Boston accent right. I myself have a tough time imitating the accent but I can kind of do it to entertain my friends. Went hiking in New Hampshire with a friend once and some woman who I’m certain is from Maryland asked us something and he was bewildered by how she sounded. Another time, I was in Providence with some college friends mainly from Maine and New Jersey and we stopped to talk to a police officer and I was the only one who could understand his accent. I love accents and lingustics and they’re one of the coolest subjects to learn about

I'm from Chicago originally and lived in Wisconsin for a while. Her accent is not entirely accurate. It sounded more like the eastern part of North Dakota/western part of Minnesota, like that Fargo type accent sort of. Wisconsin, though? No. Wisconsin's accent has a specific cadence to it, that's pretty tough to mimic correctly. You almost have to be from there in order to do that one. I lived there for over 20 years and still couldn't pick it up. Can't even count how many times people used to say "you're not from around here, are ya?" lol.

One negative thing that has come with the popularity of television and the internet is the loss of regional accents, in my opinion. Since most actors/actresses sound like they don't possess any accent, they're just kinda "normal", my generation has learned to subconscious imitate that "normal" accent. I'm from North Carolina. My mama constantly tells me that I sound like the people on TV. It's so disappointing because I love the Southern accent. I wish I had it more.

I don't have a strong accent, but it shows up every now and then especially in particular words.

There are four fundamental aspects of accent shifting, which are articulation, phonation, resonance, prosody (Amy calls this melody), and if you familiarize yourself with these four aspects, you can hone into what exactly that bit is that's skewing the accent. This is the approach I use from my own experience being a nerd dabbling in linguistics and accent shifting, so I dunno if there's a video that explains it like that, but the voice is incredibly versatile and I know you can do it!

Ann is great. I was raised in Central California and teach seminars with attendees from all across the U.S. We got to talking about accents and students said I sounded like I was from north Texas/ Oklahoma. California Central Valley regional inflection comes from the Dust Bowl migration of the Okies' in the 40's & 50's as they settled in farming areas from Redding all the way down to Bakersfield. The country music sound you hear today originated out of Bakersfield because of proximity to Los Angeles recording studios, not in the South. Central Valley is, like, totally different from the Coastal regions, dude.

She nailed the California accent mostly for women, less for men. That California accent transformed from a more neutral accent & 'dialect' when I was a teen in the '60's. It's really the 'Valley Girl' sound that took hold from the San Fernando Valley over decades after the '80's. My daughter talks like that because she's a native Californian born in the '70's. The earlier 'neutrality' was a result of people from all over the country flooding into California & somewhat mixing their American accents.
