We actually did something like this for non-native English speakers a few months back. Check out https://accentoracle.com https://accentoracle.com (most mind-blowing if you're a non native English speaker)
- nmeofthestate 1y agoI'm 42% Arabic apparently! And 20% Russian. Got an 81% American accent level. I guess it is tuned to non-native-English speaker accents.
- ilyausorov 1y agoWas that right? Or what is the correct native language it should have predicted? Note the %s in the accent breakdown section are prediction probabilities
- nmeofthestate 1y agoNative English speaker with a rolled-R accent, so I can see why it picked Arabic/Russian.
- SamBam 1y agoWell, it says I'm Finish. But now I have a new game, where I put on my best Italian or Russian or Greek or Australian accent and try to see how close I am. I'm terrible, according to the program. My Italian is Russian or Hungarian or Swedish, my Australian is English. New party game unlocked.
- ilyausorov 1y agoAmazing! If you can make it go viral again too, I will love you!
- AJoxo 1y agoI've been building that exact game accentgame.xyz
- owenthejumper 1y agoWow that was actually accurate
- cmcconomy 1y agoI would love to be able to explore combinations of X spoken language with Y accent, like for example I've always been curious how French sounds spoken with an Indian accent.
- reactormonk 1y agoSwiss-German accent doesn't seem to be on the list, so it guessed mostly Swedish.
- vunderba 1y agoFun. I have a strongly modulated North American midwestern accent so unsurprisingly it had me read several paragraphs before only being able to say with any certainty that my accent was 83% English with the rest being Spanish/Russian. It couldn't detect the country of origin.
- haarolean 1y agoAgreed, pretty meh. Tried my usual accent (the one where natives mostly can’t tell where I'm from) — got 78%. Then went full cartoon russian ‘bad neighborhood’ mode — somehow scored 68%.
- jfim 1y agoInterestingly enough, it thought I was Russian, even though my native language is French. It was tied at 32% with French though. Edit: Tried it a few times and also got English as an accent. Pretty fun application!
- eru 1y agoIt detects my non-native English accent correctly, but then it makes the mistaken assumption that I want to sound like an American of all things?
