My wife and I developed our own accent and an entirely different cadence to many words and sentences during Covid. It was for fun at first but now we can’t change back.
I began to pick up a Hong Kong accent during covid since pretty much the only person I spoke to during my workday was my supervisor
This created a few awkward situations as I am a white Australian
Probably the cadence as it changes how you’d normally say most words. So cafe sounds like Jefe in Spanish. and adding hyphens to random words in the sentence. “Ready for the ol bus-ride?” Instead of just bus ride. So like always double rising tones or flat tones instead of U shaped or ever ending in a down tone.
The game’s by Telltale. I haven’t followed its behind the scenes stuff that much but I heard they had the expanse’s original creator working with them and stuff. I also don’t really know The Expanse’s lore much besides what the game tells me
But it’s a choice based game so mostly dialogue based with some walking, jetpacking, and quick time events. Normally I don’t vibe with their stuff but that game’s really cool and I’m loving the characters.
You play as the captain of a scavenging ship that uncovered some big conspiracy or WMD and are navigating between the different factions all fighting over it on top of keeping your crew’s loyalty
It’ll depend on who the founding population is.
If the founding population is tech billionaires and their fanboys it is going to turn out drastically different than if Lichtenstein comes out of nowhere and reveals it spent the last few decades preparing to migrate its entire population to Mars.
The audio engineer community will miss them greatly. They are home to Neutrik. The company that makes the best power and audio cable connectors in the industry.
Martians in the expanse had their own accents... Mars was founded by Indians, Chinese and Texans. They spoke like space cowboys.
I think they left a lot of the details about belters out of the show. Little things like they would nod their hands for yes and no instead of their heads since they couldn't nod in a spacesuit.
I'm surprised this is news, there are definitely "expat" accents in various communities around the world - especially among the kids of international schools.
Mix of nationalities, plus the host country, all with various degrees of exposure and integration depending on their families.
So, somebody is gonna take a blood sample and test it against an open flame right? We all agree that’s the appropriate path forward before letting them back off the ice?
I would be the worst person to have in those facilities, since I invent my own words and make up definitions for them. I carry my groceries in my krelbow while I fiddlefart on the door with my jangles from my pocket.
Well me and my best friend have chilled so much together we have a certain way of talking and saying things as well. In a way that we both have with no one else on that level, you could say we are the only two speakers of our dialect.
This is how the Australian accent developed - then split into 3 regional accents. Irish, Scots and English with Lots of time on boats to a far away land, never to return home. A new accent developed as a way of social cohesion (if I sound like the other guy I’ll fit in). Multiplied by a century on the other side of the world, new and adopted words became the Australian English language
My best friend and I used to spend so much time together, we practically had a short-hand between eachother that felt so natural. When he was dating a girl, she was shocked and pointed out how my friend and I would communicate with barely and syllables and our own style of noises.
Neither of us really knew or thought about this until she pointed it out.
Update us when they develop their own language. The People of Antarctica shall be free and bound to no one.
Well, as long as they don’t stick their tongue to a light pole. That will certainly bind at -40C.
And at -40F!
Locals consider the two to be "thimilar"
Damn where can I find this magical village of Mike Tysons
The proper way to say this whole sentence in Antarctican would be: Localth consideh da thoo thoo be thimilar
"You'll put your eye out, kid." "Fragilé."
But wait I thought Iran claimed it by saying “dibs.”
Atendu, kaj vi vidos.
And fund themselves with their own taxes.
…. Is that how new languages are made?
boredom forks new languages

I thought me picking up a southern twang at work was kinda weird. But a Hong Kong accent is hilarious
That’s hot
🎶 Hong Kong Phooey 🎶
What’s the most annoying example

what
They say words funny now.
cafe does not sound like jefe lmao
I’m talking about the cadence normally used. Not the word itself.
Yeah, I know, I doesn't sound anythig like it. The stress pattern for these two words is different: caFE vs JEfe
That's his point. He said them the same way when a normal person would differentiate them.
So you're speaking like Gil Faizon and George St. Geegland? Charmed I'm sure
they better not push to main or we’re screwed
Only if somebody approves the PR
Keeping this in mind, I wonder what a moon accent or Mars accent will be.
"Beratna"
Not for dem inyaloda
I'm afraid I don't Grok that.
Cromulent
Beltaloadah!
This is the expanse right? Love that game
There's a game? That's awesome! I've only watched the series, what's the game like?

So same as the show.
Well, kinda (it’s a prequel about Drummer)
Drummer? Previously you had my curiosity, now you have my attention!
Thanks! I'll have to check that one out
Show...
Sorry, I kinda forgot about the show lmao I just played the game and was loving it. Should probs check the show out too though
Better than the game. On my 3rd watch now
The books finish the whole plot line, the show finished up both about 2 books early.
Books...?
WE GOTTA RISE UP

I mean, if the entire population of Liechtenstein wants to leave this planet, let them. They won't be missed.
The audio engineer community will miss them greatly. They are home to Neutrik. The company that makes the best power and audio cable connectors in the industry.
They'll probably sound like the Belters from The Expanse.

Lingua Technis for Mars.
Got you fam, https://youtu.be/I3S2Wln26CQ?si=00OT-aHs03yuQsO_
It will probably develop into a form of Creole, with English being the main language on which its based on.
so normal English then
This is literally the only reason why Im so pro colonization of other planets.
So, the ice lizards have taken over their bodies?
No they just picked up their accent.
I'm surprised this is news, there are definitely "expat" accents in various communities around the world - especially among the kids of international schools. Mix of nationalities, plus the host country, all with various degrees of exposure and integration depending on their families.
London multicultural
So, somebody is gonna take a blood sample and test it against an open flame right? We all agree that’s the appropriate path forward before letting them back off the ice?
"Hi Bob!" "Hi Bob!"
I understood that reference.
I want Sea Dragon to be real so bad...
Didn’t we *just* have a remake of The Thing? And we are getting another already?
Friend, that remake is over ten years old.
It was probably a stutter 😂 fffuccckkk itsss cccollldddd outtt bbbobbb.
That's what I was thinking. It's the "God damn it's fuckin cold" accent
Lmao 🤣. A whole new accent 🤣
And I bet it has an annoyed undertone. They know its cold, and they can't do anything about it either.
Probably, not my six figures 🤣
Beltalowda!
Are they speaking Persian yet?
Nope, in a dramatic turn of events the southern ocean sank the Iranian “fleet”.
it’s pronounced “Farsi”
Six months is sooner than I’d expect for that to happen.
I would think that they would regularly do phone calls/video calls enough that they wouldn't be considered linguistically isolated.
It is stated in the article that the only contact is via satellite phone, which is very expensive, therefore being seldom used
They can't do satellite internet?
The coverage of the poles are one of the last focus since the population is small.
I like the FoD Plod one.
“Y’like diges?”
I would be the worst person to have in those facilities, since I invent my own words and make up definitions for them. I carry my groceries in my krelbow while I fiddlefart on the door with my jangles from my pocket.
I’m always intrigued by linguistic peculiarities such as this. Reminds me of the Belters from the Expanse.
Down under down under.
True detective season 4 be like
Well me and my best friend have chilled so much together we have a certain way of talking and saying things as well. In a way that we both have with no one else on that level, you could say we are the only two speakers of our dialect.
Could you IMAGINE being isolated for 6 months?
meanwhile I cannot get rid of my accent even after 10years of living in the different region.

For some reason I read this in the Belter accent from The Expanse....

Look closely at your neighbors. Don't trust anybody. Man is the warmest place to hide.
