What does English sound like

Apparently a lot of mumbling and 'tss,' 'k,' and 'p' sounds.

i remember back when i was like 6, i used to speak fake american english all the time and it sounded pretty much exactly like that. i even managed to trick a friend of mine into thinking i was fluent in english by speaking like that.

unfortunately, your ex is either right, or is a man, in which case

but watching that short film, i realize that american english is pretty clumsy-sounding.

Ah, I was trying to find that this morning.. Genius!

some say spoken swedish sounds like singing. i can't hear it though.

here's a speech by our 1970/80's prime minister, sort of our ronald reagan, only he was a socialist (and murdered!).

the muppets swedish chef is awesome but not even close.

It sounds like it's bouncing as if it's going to rhyme, but doesn't.

i love speaking fake french....i just string together a ton of vowels and stretch them out as long as i can.

""jous le moi twai zhoo pootahn "

no offense to the French.....i would actually love to learn French but have nary the time to do so.

is she with a hot british accent now?

It so much depends on the accent. American english sounds like drunken farmer's talk, british mostly like super snob talk, Australian sounds like a paranoid extremist is having a perpetual bladder crisis.

As a Slavic I suspect we are heard even funnier than english folks.
