@jetlagjen@gts.phillipsuk.org @quixoticgeek@social.v.st @afewbugs@social.coop The funny thing is that it only works with a solid British accent. I used to get mistaken for Canadian when talking English for a long time, but then I moved to the UK, and all that shifted to modern RP with hints of Essex and London. And suddenly this magical world of creative vocabulary and wordplay opened up to me.

@cassana@the-crossroads-inn.com @quixoticgeek@social.v.st @afewbugs@social.coop that's delightful! I hope you're having fun with it. Although it only works in British accents, it does work in *all* of them. "Ahm bluddy loo rawlled, eh?" (Cumbria) "Ye buzz seat!" (West Midlands) "We'll gan get bridged" (Geordie) "He is such a bookcase!" (RP)

@cassana@the-crossroads-inn.com I don't think 'only," but I do think maybe "better"...
