“You git it’s pronounced bo’oh’o’wa’er”
The cockney accent is a fun one.
I am an American educated in a private school run by old school posh Brits. Up until the 8th grade (when we got cable) I had a posh British accent that leaned into Mid-Atlantic.
In 1999 I went to London for a Y2K preparations project and I could not understand about half of the words those fucks said.
EDIT: I should go to a vocal coach and try to get my mid-atlantic accent back. I think it's a fun accent to have.
As someone who was born in London and lived here for most of my life, you mis-pronounced "ass". It's correctly pronounced "arse".
But I've no idea what you're trying to say!
Yep!
