I’m not bein’ funny but like, I feel that would be a mis-leasing Rosetta Stone, because I've heard that verbal tic from people all over.

@freamon

Are you saying it in a Welsh accent when you read it off the page?

I'll try .. Oh yeah. I've mostly heard in some southern accent I think.

I've a horrible feeling though, that we've now got the point of saying the Rosetta Stone for a Welsh accent is .. if it's in a Welsh accent.
