Let's hear you again!

[wolfsoul]

I thought it would be cool to have another thread like this, where everyone posts a sound recording of themselves. :)

I'll do one as soon as other people do them LOL. :p

[carole]

Ok well I am not a scaredy Cat (Excuse the Pun), here I am again.

[wolfsoul]

It won't work for me. :( Maybe it's because my computer is a bit messed up right now. I get that little box with the coloured square, circle, and triangle in it.

[Oggyflute]

I've never done it and I'm not sure how. :confused:

[MariaM]

Jordan, quit the lying. You can do it and you know it. :p

;)

[popcornbird]

I love hearing you, Carol! :D

Jordan...let's hear you. I've always wondered what you sound like. ;)

[Oggyflute]

Okay I've done it thanks to Wolfsoul for telling me how. :D

[PJ's Mom]

What an accent! :D

How about I just come on yahoo and you can hear me there? LOL. I just recorded my voice and I sound really stupid. I'll keep trying hehe.

[wolfsoul]

I keep trying to post it but it isn't working. :( The page just sits here for ten minutes. I'm getting so frustrated. I'm going to send it to one of my friends over msn and see if they will attach it for me.

[EssTer]

I hate how my voice sounds, so I´m not sure if I´ll record my voice LOL...
BTW nice accents you two - Carole and Oggyflute :D

[Oggyflute]

Looks like the ANZACS are the only ones who are going to post. :D

The accents are pretty broad though. :D

[sirrahbed]

I tried it and here ya go:)

[tatsxxx11]

Searching for my microphone!:( But love hearing all of your wonderful accents!:)

[cookieluver7]

It's nice to hear you guys. Its too bad I don't have a microphone. :(:(:(

[RobiLee]

I love it!!! I don't have a microphone hooked up. I have one. I'll search for it and if I get brave I will record a message also.

You all sound wonderful and it is such a thrill to hear you. I got all excited and started clapping...lol. My husband thinks I'm such an idiot!...lol He just doesn't understand what a thrill it is to actually hear your voices!

Robin :)

ha ha ha LOL :D people just dont understand us - crazy PTers :D

[carole]

Hey there Oggyflute was great to hear your voice, until now I never knew you were a male, lol, I wonder if our American friends can hear the difference in our accents? :D :cool:

[Paul]

   It's great to hear you!

   I have only met a few New Zealanders. However, Carole's voice sounds like I expect a New Zealander to sound - mostly like a distant non-Asian commonwealth nation with a hint of Australian. Oggy simply sounds Australian.

[RobiLee]

Hi Karen!

Absolutely loved hearing from you. What a great voice you have. I can't find my microphone. Not that I would know how to use it anyway...hehehe. Maybe it will turn up soon!

Robin :)

[Oggyflute]

Paul managed to Carole. :D They are quite different, easier to notice than a North American & Canadian. I always found it easier to notice when I came back through the States after visiting Canada.

And Robin, come on mate, I think we all know that you know where that microphone is. :D

[wolfsoul]

Originally posted by Oggyflute

Canadians are North American hehe. :p

With Canadians and Americans the difference in accents depends on the place. People over in Nova Scotia sound Scottish to me. I think that Western-US people sound exactly like me (I'm in BC). And then there is Micki who lives in the South US, and she sounds way different than me. She's a Dixie Chick. :D

I can't hear any of the recordings on my computer, but on the last thread I did hear them, and when I heard Carole's voice I said "I love Australian accents." Tikeyas_mom's dad, who was across the room said "That's New Zealand!" :o Lol. I wonder if I could hear both of your recordings now if I could see the difference.

[Oggyflute]

Maybe I should have said Northern USA. :D
I did find Canadian accents quite varied, but it was easier for me when I went down to the states as opposed to coming up to Canada. Most of the places I was at were pretty cosmopolitan too in terms of the varietry of people and there accents, being the armed forces base at Trenton, and also a bit of time in Ottowa. Edmonton was pretty cool I loved that.

As soon as you hear my recording you will notice a distinct difference. As Paul said I sound typically aussie and Carole to me sounds typically from New Zealand. ( Carole does sound rather cultered though, at least to me :D )

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

I think I finally found how to record my voice! Now, if only I can find how to post it here... !

Let's try!

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

last try

[cloverfdx]

Nice to hear you all again :D. Lut i love your accent, very nice. And Carol it was lovely to hear from you again. OggyFlute , nice accent ;).

The mic i bought to record my Xmas message never ended up working and i cannot figure out how to record just audio on my camera, i will see what i can do though.

Keep em coming.

[CamCamPup33]

Everyone has such wonderful accents! I just sound.... I'm not sure, but i don't think i have an accent. :p

Robin, search for that mic!! ;) :p

[luvofallhorses]

I wish I had a mic. I think we do somewhere but it's broken:( I will have to get one.

[flamepony12]

I still have all the voices saved in a folder from last time, plus these! :D

(PS- don't count on hearing me!;))

[flamepony12]

Yay! LOL! :p

[sirrahbed]

Lut!! How wonderful to hear your voice!!:D

I have a question though - I used Sound Recorder like I read to do...but found I could only record several seconds - had to talk quickly!! - because otherwise the upload said it was too big! Is there a way to talk longer and make the file smaller?:rolleyes:

[RobiLee]

I can do that part, but my mic isn't working. I dont' know how to get it to work. I'm so confused. All I did was plug it into the computer. Is there something else I need to do with it?

[RobiLee]

ok, i got it recorded but it says its too big. how do i make it smaller? I'm trying folks!...lol

[Suki Wingy]

You guys will hear and see from me as soon as my computer is all the way fixed.
p.s. I could only hear Karen.

[manda_moo87]

Same here.

[Paul]

   MP3 files are great because they are small in file size and almost everything that plays sound will play MP3s. I used iTunes to transform Karen's aiff file to MP3. Perhaps you could use use your music playing software to save as MP3? I am sorry I do not know which Windows software is easiest to use.

   If anyone wishes you may email me (paul at petoftheday) your sound file of any size and I will convert it to MP3.

      Paul

(I know Windows users can download the iTunes software for free from Apple but there is probably an easier way.)

[Lexi_Lover]

Hehe, I'll give it a shot I guess...I sound funny! And I had NO clue what to say...but since I don't know all of you in real life I guess it doesn't matter!;)I'm young...don't blame me!:p

[petslover]

I decided to post here :D

[petslover]

Thanks Flamepony!! I love everyones accent! This is a great thread!

[RobiLee]

Gosh, I love listening to you all. I sent mine to Paul to see if he could convert it for me.

Love that mississippi accent, petslover!!! You also sound so full of life!!!

Robin :)

P.S. Hey, Amber! What about you? Do we get to hear you? C'mon!

[petslover]

Thank you RobiLee. I appreciate that!! :D

[flamepony12]

[Lexi_Lover]

Same as you;)Check out the Lets see you, again thread, I just posted recently;)

[flamepony12]

okay, fine, I finally got a decent recording. Hope nobody minds it being a movie; I don't have a mic.....

[Lexi_Lover]

Its ok, I don't have an accent either;)

[carole]

This is so much fun, I just love to hear you all.

Oggyflute, I really donot have a typical Kiwi accent, mostly because I was brought up with the Aberdonian Scottish Dialect all my life.

Even I can pick a real Kiwi accent, it is quite distinct as you put as are some Aussie accents, for instance you guy's say sex instead of Six, fish and cheeps instead of fish n chips.

I too alway's thought Canadians and American's sounded the same, my American boyfriend told me how to pick a Canadian, correct me if I am wrong they usually say OOT and ABOOT, instead of out and about, of course it probably depends which part you are from.

people say the North Islanders in NZ sound different to the South Islanders.

:D

Keep them all coming people, it really does add that personal touch to PT doesn't it?;)

I went to a camp in canada 2 years ago, and Many people there were Canadian.... ;) They pronounced "out" like "eh-oot" and "about" "abeh-oot"... I love it!!! :D

[carole]

Ah well least I can pick the French Canadians from the American's now lol.:) :D :cool:

[Paul]

   Here's Robin's wonderful voice in an MP3 file (http://petoftheday.com/online/robin/voicerobin.mp3) or in a .wav file (http://petoftheday.com/online/robin/voicerobin1.wav).

      Paul

[cloverfdx]

Awww i love all of these American accents :D. Great to hear everyone. I am going to do what Devon did and just make mine a video ;).

[carole]

Paul you will have to re-post that , nothing doing here, thanks.

[carole]

For those who have trouble distinguishing between the two Down Under accents, here is how you can tell us apart, well it is the best I could do lol.:) :D

I believe only people from Nova Scotia and Newfoundland pronounce it "aboot." It's not even really "oot" it sort of just sounds like that. It's the same way the Scottish pronounce it. Like "Abou-oot." As for me, I'm in BC, so I just pronounce it "about." Lol.

we never hear your voice, we never hear your name, we never see your picture.... ;);)

(it would be better than nothing! :p)

[carole]

Slick you do so have an accent, I never noticed you were from Canada, and I am proud to say I picked that you were, it was the way you said Know.

I have seen your ugly mug to quote you, and it is not Ugly at all, lovely to hear you.:)

[wolfsoul]

For some reason my voice recordings just won't attach. Does someone here have msn, and maybe I can send the recording to them over msn and they can post it for me? None of my friends are on to do it for me. I also still can't hear any of the attachments here. :(

[Lexi_Lover]

I have MSN, send it over! :D

[wolfsoul]

Yay! My msn is [email protected]. :D Add me, and I'll send it!

[Lexi_Lover]

Its coming! Don't worry! Its acting kinda slow! LOL!

[wolfsoul]

It's coming along very slowly! Hehe.

[wolfsoul]

Aww...She can't get it to attach either. :( She's going to try recording my recording LOL.

[Lexi_Lover]

Ok, so here it is. Hopefully it didn't bring down the quality, I don't think it did. But whatever! I got a sneak-peek...or a sneak-hear;)

THIS IS WOLFSOUL'S RECORDING Not that it would matter if it was mine or anything!:p

[wolfsoul]

Oh good, Lexi_lover showed me how to listen to the recordings, so I will listen to them now. I heard myself lol.

[RobiLee]

I noticed that some people's recordings sound nice and clear. Mine has all that humming noise in the background. Can someone tell me what I need to do to get rid of that?

Thanks...Robin :)

[Lexi_Lover]

I think it may be the quality of the microphone...but don't ask me, cause mine sounds funny too! :p

[micki76]

LOL, Jordan, that doesn't sound like you. Why? Because you're not LOUD enough!!:p I've never heard you be that quiet! :p

PCB, just sounds like PCB. She has a very nice voice. :)

Carole you have a beautiful voice. Reminds me of Olivia Newton-John. ;) :o

Petslover, you sound like most of my relatives, and even a bit like myself.

The funniest part is all of you saying "I don't have an accent" when you ALL do. :D

I'll try to post one later, after Hubby's gone to bed. :rolleyes:

LOL too true! Those who know me well enough know I'm a very loud person. :p I think it may have sounded louder before it was recorded over the other recording lol.

And YOU sound like a Dixie Chick! :p Hehe, I love your accent.

[Lexi_Lover]

To ourselves we don't think we have accents because we are used to it, but to everybody else in the world their accent to us is perfectly normal! LOL! :D What a CRAZY world we live in:rolleyes:

I haven't heard PCB's or micki's yet:confused:

[GoldenRetrLuver]

Ugh, I wish I could hear you guys! I'll have to try to "fix" my Windows Media Player.

My mic broke as some of you know lol, but I sound like a typical Californian.. and I couldn't imagine Jordan being *quiet* for the life of me. ;)

:D That's cause I never posted it. :p Micki and several others have heard me on Yahoo Messenger once upon a time. He he he. Now don't say that's not fair...:D

Slick! OMG! I *loved* your recording! SO cute...meow meow...:D...and you sound so Canadian...which is weird because I always thought people from BC sound just like us Californians. You and Jordan sound different...:p My cousin from Vancouver has the same accent as the typical Californian. :confused:

[Tollers-n-Dobes]

I love hearing everyone's voices:D I have no way of posting mine or esle I would. I love hearing all the different accents!

I could only hear the two mp3 files that Paul posted, Karen's and Robin's. I enjoyed hearing them very much. Just wish I could hear the rest of you. I'm not sure what I'd need to do to get the .wav files to work.

[carole]

Micki Oliva Newton-John is an Aussie lol, but still what a compliment, geez just wish I had her singing voice though.:)

[Kfamr]

I can understand PCB only wanting some people, like her very close friends, to hear her voice. Although a year or so ago i'd probably question as to why, but now it's very understandable.


I enjoyed hearing everyone's voices - especially those overseas. Now, where are our "English" accents - Those are my favorite. ;)

I'm going to make another recording....hopefully someone will come online soon and help me out again lol.

By the way Carole, I also think you sound just like Olivia Newton-John! I haven't heard Oggyflute's recording yet, but I still don't think I'll be able to tell the difference between your accents lol. To me you just sound Australian.

Poppy, just for the record, all of you Californians have an American accent....can't put my finger on it, but even Gini has a strong accent.

Honestly, everyone I have spoken with from the States has an accent to me. I guess that's what makes y'all so special!!! :D

I just love hearing all of your voices!!

Oggyflute, pardon me while I SWOON!!!!!! ;)

[Karen]

Slick, dear, the lilt at the end of your phrases gives you away as Canadian. Ya don't hafta say eh, eh?

Pssst - Hi Roxy! Nice of you to pose while Momma Anna talked!

Oh Miiiickiiii, since you have to stay up and wait for Michael to go to bed...why not come on yahoo and let me entertain you while you wait? :p I have more Canadian antics up my sleeve.

[Oggyflute]

Wow!! aren't we just the international communnity? :D

Great hearing everyone. Cloverfdx get something on here mate, we need another Aussie accent to listen to. Carole great take on the differences, just got to say "G'day" :D
Slick & Wolfsoul, thanks for the sentiments. :o

This is such a great thread to get to know everyone, I hope I get to hear Amber, or if not maybe a recording of Elvis. (gotta luv schnauzers)

Ok I've managed to do another one while my partner is in the shower, (she thinks I'm being a bit silly too, but at my age I reckon I'm allowed.:D )

[wolfsoul]

Ahh, just like the Crocodile Hunter. Omg, you sooo have to record yourself pretending to be him! You could discover the amazing seven toed wallabee.. ;) Dooo it...

I will have to come back and listen to the rest of these, my computer is about to die :(.

Here's mine quickly i had no idea what to say so i did not say all that much in this one, and the others i did were mainly me laughing and alot of silence :o.

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

Wow, this is so much fun hearing everyone!! I must say I really like Petslover great laugh!!Know who I would LOVE to hear? Poppy, Randi, KAK, Luckies4me, Barbara, and many many others!!

I made another recording, trying to explain my accent. Beware, there is even some Dutch in it!!
Let's hope it works!

[Oggyflute]

I had a feeling that you had travelled some what when I heard your first one Maya's & Inka's mummy. :D

And cloverfdx, another aussie accent, woohoo! :D

[slick]

Oggyflute

I just want to say that I've been a Paul Hogan fan for years and you do sound just like him. You remind me of this guy that used to work in my office. "David" was Auzzie and was the cutest thing on two legs. He had a shining smile, sweet dimples and he used to ride his bike to work. He'd come into the office wearing these tight little spandex biking shorts and he had the cutest little.....

...oh dear, was I fantasizing again??? Sorry...:o

[flamepony12]

I love listening to everyones voices, it's so cool how we have so many people with accents!! keep them coming!

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

So, everybody understood my Dutch so far ;) :p :p

[EssTer]

OK..I made it LOL...I recorded my voice..though my mic is crap, and sound is not the best...sorry for that!!

BTW - Everyone has really nice voices and it´s cool to hear you ;)

I can hear Rhiannon's .avi file as well, but still none of the .wav files. Rhiannon, I think you have a pleasant voice :)

Edit: If I right click the attachments and save them to my computer, I can then open and play them. I'll have to listen to all of them later when I get done with work :D

[K9soul]

I couldn't resist and listened to a few now :p. Slick, you sound like most native Minnesotans sound too. I suppose proximity to Canada makes it leak over :D.

I was borin in Florida, lived in Colorado from age 1 to 8, lived in the Ozarks from 8 to 18, lived in northern Missouri for 9 out of 12 months from 18 to 20, back to the Ozarks for about another year and a half, and then in Minnesota for the past 8 years or so. Having been in so many different regions, I don't *think* I have any definite accent. I will sometimes say a particular word in the Ozarks or Minnesotan manner without thinking though :p

[wolfsoul]

Jessica, right click the attachments and press "Save target as." That should work! :)

Edit: Never mind, I see you've got it!

[CamCamPup33]

I love hearing everyone!!

PCB, what are you talking about?! I don't think you sound californian! Maybe it's just me. :p

Robin, Yayyy! You sound exactly like i thought you would. To answer your question before, I would record me, but i don't have a mic! I need to get one though. Just ask Julie, Logan or someone else who's heard me how i sound...... I know for sure i don't have an accent! LOL! :p

I don't think you have an accent lol. :p At first I thought that you would sound like Micki, because you are both from the South, but I guess not lol.

[carole]

Are you sure I still sound like an Aussie? come on guy's really listen hard, NO WAY. lol:D

[cloverfdx]

Carole :D, hehe no aussie accent there. Now i have to go back and listen to the rest of them.

I love your accent:D I don't think you sound like an Aussie, somewhat similar but I can tell the difference:)

[wolfsoul]

I definatly hear the difference -- if I were to hear you and not know what your accent was, I would probably think you were English lol.

I just want to say that I've been a Paul Hogan fan for years and you do sound just like him. You remind me of this guy that used to work in my office. "David" was Auzzie and was the cutest thing on two legs. He had a shining smile, sweet dimples and he used to ride his bike to work. He'd come into the office wearing these tight little spandex biking shorts and he had the cutest little.....

...oh dear, was I fantasizing again??? Sorry...:o


awww slick. :o

[carole]

See I knew if you guy's listened hard enough you would pick up the difference, wolfsoul, you got it right, because my parents are not Kiwi's I have picked up a slight different accent to a typical Kiwi, Oggyflute noticed it too, a bit of both in there I guess he he.

Keep them coming,it is awesome to put voices to faces on both the let's hear you and let's see you threads.:)

[sirrahbed]

I have been enjoying these clips - and especially your kiwi:D

Now, do you think you could try to fake an American accent? Actors do it all the time, but I am not sure I have ever heard a faked *american* accent:p

[carole]

Ok then I am up for the challenge, now you can all have a good laugh on me for the morning, here I am attempting a bad impression of an American. lol:)

[sirrahbed]

Yay!! Carole you could fool any american!! That was great!!!:D

[carole]

Really Debbie or are you just being nice lol, I think I could do better, but I will not attempt another try as I am getting confused am I scottish, English, American or Aussie or really a kiwi ????lol.:D :cool:

[sirrahbed]

Nope Carole, I am serious. If I heard you, I would wonder what part of the USA you were from and I hear a hint of *something* but I would not think you were from another country at all! Good job. The first part - you sound like a Californian with a bit of valley girl. I could hear more at the very end that sounded british. Some words maybe a tiny bit off but you would pass. You must hear us on the news and stuff:D

[carole]

Yes Debbie we get lots of American Televison and secretly I love the American accent, would love to talk like you guys, yes I started talking normal towards the end, forgot what I was doing, it was a fun attempt anyhow., now maybe you should try a Kiwi accent, who is brave enough huh?:)

[wolfsoul]

That was really good. :D I could hear a bit of an accent on some words, but you did very well.

I think I will make a recording of me trying to sound Australian lol.

[carole]

You GO GIRL, I am waiting, not brave enough to master the Kiwi one eh? just kiddin, waiting patiently waiting........:D

[GraciesMommy]

I so enjoyed listening to y'all this morning...Can't find my mike...but will try to get it done this weekend...but if you know what Reba McEntire sounds like, you will know what I sound like...that is who every one says I talk like. I am from Arkansas actually..lived there for 37 years and moved to Texas in 99...so Texans think I have an accent..lol..but I guess I sound a "little" more country than they do here..I get made fun of all the time...but I am used to it.

[wolfsoul]

I tried the Australian accent and sounded liek an idiot LOL.

Here is Jynnelle and I. See if you can tell us apart. I'm the manlier sounding one LOL. We always laugh because everyone says we sound exactly alike, except I have a deeper and louder voice...like a man lol.

[Suki Wingy]

oh, sorry, I just listened to them all then made my own. I don't think I can attatch it here though because when I transfer stuff onto my computer from my camera(I don't have a mic) it automattically goes into the kodac easyshare thingy which won't let me save videos for some reason.:( It was really fun listening to everyone else though!

[Ally Cat's Mommy]

My accent is a bit mixed up - South Africans can usually pick up that I am not a "native" South African, but I have really lost my Scottish accent!!

Some other South Africans who you may have heard speak are:
Anand Naidoo, Tumi Makgabo and Jane Dutton on CNN and Jane Hicks on BBC International. Also if you want to hear a South African put on an American accent just listen to Charlise Theron!!!


Here is me saying HI - and as Lut ended her greeting in Dutch, I have ended mine in AFRIKAANS - do any of our Dutch-speaking members understand me?????

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

Hey Julie, how nice to hear your voice!! I did understand most of your Afrikaans! You eneded with "gelukkige dag verder", right?
LOL, I love that Afrikaans, it sounds so much like the local dialect I still speak with my family, called "Westvlaams". Thanks Julie!!

[carole]

Julie that was so cool, you do sound very south African to me, I always think the S.A is a very unique accent, like a mixture of British, Kiwi, and then a touch of something else which makes it so distinct from any other accent.

[Oggyflute]

Your accent doesn't seem as broad as some Sth African friends of ours Julie. There was definately a bit of scottish in there. :D

[carole]

I agree oggyflute Julie's is not so broad, and a bit of a mixture, but I canna say I heard the scottish dialect in there terribly much, what you reckon Julie? have you still go it, if so why not post a lovely scottish accent, Killearn Kitties would be great to hear, hope she posts her lovely scottish accent.;)

Try checking a folder probably located in"my Pictures" which says "kodak". This will hold all the things that you have downloaded from your camera, it's headed by date. You will probably have a little luck in there attaching things.
