World's sexiest accents Because a foreign language can be the best aphrodisiac, we traveled the world in search of the 12 hottest accents By Jordan Burchette Read more: World’s sexiest accents #2 | CNNGo.com http://www.cnngo.com/explorations/life/worlds-sexiest-accents-130333?page=0,1#ixzz1VO37Kthg Famous tongues: King Sunny Adé, Omotola Jalade Ekeinde Dignified, with just a hint of willful naiveté, the deep, rich “oh’s” and “eh’s” of Naija bend the English language without breaking it, arousing tremors in places other languages can’t reach.

While American girls go gaga over Nigerian accents, I think they are the only ones (Americans I think) who like the Nigerian accent. I have lived in other places around the world and my accent cannot pull dem chicks like it would in the US. The study was probably based in the US iI bet |

SEFAGO: i have to agree with that. |

According to the list: 1-Italian 2-French 3-Spanish 4-Czech 5-Naija 6-Irish Accents are a very tricky thing though . . . it all depends on the person talking. I have heard italian accents that I liked and some that I just hate (including one dude like this that I work with) I wish I could give him some mouthwash to clean out that yeye thing. Same for the french, some sound sweet and others just plan annoying - those who talk mostly thru their nose - what's sexy about not being able to hear what the hell it is you're saying? I think this list is built on imagination & fantasy. The irish accent to me is the worst on the planet. I'll take ching-chung-choo before I take irish African accents in general (ehm minus Liberians ) sound nice when the person is speaking with a solid command of the english language . . . not these yeye children these days that are throwing slangs all over the place and cannot speak proper english with confidence. |

Nigerians speaks better and clearer english than any other Africans, that explains why most of her languages are erasing fast. Ibo language is the worst hit, i don't think it can last till d next 50 years |

Mbeki: Emi Ke? I wrote the book on that s*h/it man. Infact you should have your notebook ready for me to give you pointers |

SEFAGO: can't wait to jot down ur lectures, but I doubt if it will be dat useful as it did not help u in the first instance. |

Nigerian accent, sexy in regard to what language? First of all, does one need to be reminded that different parts of Nigeria have different accents? One may arguably claim that Nigerian accent is "sexy" in their native languages, but in spoken English, i'm sorry to say that Nigerian accents are not appealling: Most Nigerian are not even understood by foreigners (especially when speaking English to them on phone). |
Re: Nigeria Has The World's 5th Sexiest Accents -cnn by N101: 8:11pm On Aug 18, 2011 |
Mbeki: You obviously haven't spoken to many East Africans or Southern Africans. |
Re: Nigeria Has The World's 5th Sexiest Accents -cnn by Mbeki: 8:46pm On Aug 18, 2011 |
N101:Statistically, Nigerian speaks clearer english than others. Though of what benefit is it anyway, it's only Africans that takes pride in speaking english that a french or german will not speak even if they can, Vicjustice:I think u need to ask CNN how they arrived at that? |
Re: Nigeria Has The World's 5th Sexiest Accents -cnn by JeSoul(f): 9:15pm On Aug 18, 2011 |
justwise:Chai! say it ain't so I just hope you don't pick it up and end up speaking in some kind of naija-irish hybrid twang that no get head or tail |
Re: Nigeria Has The World's 5th Sexiest Accents -cnn by N101: 10:27pm On Aug 18, 2011 |
Mbeki: Statistically, there are more Nigerians, but that doesn't equate to speaking clearer English. Most people take pride in speaking more than one language except some Nigerians. It's a skill, moreso to speak them fluently. |

Awwwwww, my mum keeps telling me to get my naija accent back cos I've lost it. I don't think I have. whenever I speak to her on the fone she starts imitating my ''supposed'' accent . . . .'' G'day mate'' . . . . With that her thick Igbo accent . I love that woman's accent . I visited naija last yr, whenever I went over to visit her the first thing she says to me is . . . . ''Hey ya doing?'' . Duh I don't say that mum. |
