Max Power Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Why would the Manx accent have special dispensation to have lazy speech? Some of the clearest speakers are our Celtic brethren when they articulate. I don't mean the broad Glaswegian, Belfast brogue or the super fast Welsh speech, those who pronounce the words correctly still have an accent but don't miss off half of the words they are speaking. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And increase the tone of your voice to just below a squeak. Puttin' in the occasional stutter will add authenticity. On the rare occasions I can bear to listen to Manx Radio on a Sunday morning (actually in the afternoon these days I believe). I have found that is how you do it.

gettafa Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 (edited) Andy Wint has a couple of 'heavyweights' from Mann Benham on Mannin Line in the Manx Radio Studio today. Mann Benham are the main sponsors of morning Mandate. Oh dear. I wonder are they being given a free line on account of the one time flag ship morning radio show now only playing to people who are interested in pop music, Ben's Banger and Where's Wootton?
