I am not a pirate.

Were I a pirate, I would be actively fighting this blatant pirate prejudice displayed by mocking my traditional accent. Arr.

I mean. Um. Die, landlubbers?

*sighs*

Okay, fine. Maybe I am a pirate. But I don't have to talk like one. *nodnodnod* Those days ended with "Connie wanna cracker?" in my infancy.

Does it help to know that the "pirate accent" is a fairly accurate approximation of how some words were pronounced during the Great Vowel Shift?

Will you please go check out my latest post (http://www.livejournal.com/users/fugaciouslover/100038.html) and give your feedback? You're better with words than most; you might have a clue. I don't.
