American English was a mistake!
I like to troll Americans occasionally by calling American English 'English (simplified)'.

Everything after old English was a mistake smh

I don’t think it’s a book on accents, its a phonetic book for learning English. I have one for learning French, it’s in English phonetic to pronounce French words. Just a different way to learn the language.
wrote last edited by [email protected]I daresay it was a book sold in America for 'English Pronunciation', or something, but it definitely spells out an American accent, which is understandable. Not sure why the person in the post feels so called out by it, other than ignorance of one's own accent, but whatever, the 'translations' are pretty fun.
I always kind of enjoy reading spelled out accents as a literary exercise. Pratchett was great at it with the Mac Nac Feegle, for e.g., and wasn't that James Joyce's whole thing?

You could definitely turn this into a game, giving english speaking participants the phonetic sentence to translate would be funny.

First thing I thought, too. For tea, yes, but for coffee? Madness!

A few drops of lemon juice helps cut the bitterness. Just be careful about adding milk or cream!

my favorite playful insult is "I just KNOW you got beef with your phones speech-to-text", I live in Florida so it's pretty common to talk to people with southern accents and they ALL get misunderstood when trying to send a text while driving or something and it's hilarious
My brother in law has a really southern accent from his dad and both me and my sister got the autistic trait of "adopt speaking patterns from people around you subconsciously" so we both sound like we're making fun of him by accident sometimes without realizing
he caught a beer can with a fishing pole once. That was cool
