Accents...

[fajrdrako]

This interested me, because I am not only fascinated by accents, I am relatively accent-blind and have trouble understanding unfamiliar accents, or hearing them properly, or recognizing them. The idea of losing one's own accent and gaining another boggles my brain. I suppose it's better than aphasia.

I looked in Wikipedia and learned what a satsuma was. I'd never heard the word before I heard it in Doctor Who. The Wikipedia article confused me, though, by impling that in Canada a clementine and a tangerine were the same fruit, while they are not - they taste distinctly different, and even look different - tangerines tend to be slightly larger and the skin is more red. I like clementines a lot, and I don't like the taste of tangerines.
