I need to acquire an Irish or Welsh accent FAST! I am not looking to spend any money on software. Can you please help?
anonymous: HI! :)
librarian: Hi, there! Which do you prefer, Irish or Welsh?
anonymous: well, I would like a Welsh accent but my director
said that we could settle for an Irish accent...
librarian: OK. Have you looked anywhere yet?
anonymous: Yah, I have found a couple of places on the internet, but I can only get so far before
it wants to charge me..
librarian: uh huh.
librarian: do you want audio files (or CD or cassette), or do you want a text description of the accent, or both?
anonymous: both would be awsome. I have a hard time learning by just reading things, if I hear it, it makes more sense and clicks easier, ya know?
librarian: One thing that occurs to me is to search on YouTube for famous Welsh, such as Bryn Terfell, the singer.
librarian: Appearances on talk shows would be good for studying.
anonymous: okay. I my computer and youtube aren't the best of friends, but I'll give it a try!
librarian: Another famous Welsh is Tom Jones, the singer
anonymous: okay, I'll give that one a try too! one moment please...
librarian: OK, that's only my first idea.
anonymous: :)
librarian: This looks promising...http://web.ku.edu/idea/europe/wales/wales.htm
anonymous: I keep trying to search for small audio clips of just welsh people talking and I keep coming up empty handed :P I don't know if you have a special program or search doo-hicky at your disposal but if you do, that might be something...
librarian: Did you see the audio clips on that last page? scroll down
anonymous: OOP!!! thaks
anonymous: so, I think this is good for now. But if I need help again, "I'll be back!!!" hahahaha! have a good day!

anonymous: thanks a bunch!
librarian: Sure. Good luck with your play!
