another mystery solved! thanks to youtube.

actually this is really quite bizarre. for one thing i have no idea what she's talking about. and for another, why on earth is she repeating the things she says on the train? in any case, now you will always imagine this woman's face when you take the mrt.

i think she's talking about accents. someone should tell her that accents are due to regional variations in the pronunciation of vowels, and hence there is no such thing as no accent.

and if i may be so bold, she has the accent of a well-educated Londoner, aka High English.

I would so tell her that. correcting the uninformed masses, isn't that what the gahmen always tell us to do? :P
