"scottish "
There are many different regions in Scotland and all speak differently.
Aberdonian is a nightmare to grasp, especially in deepest Inverurie.

Really strong accents tend to be from Ports:-
Liverpool
Newcastle
Glasgow
London
Portsmouth
Bristol
But the worst accent in the world surely is a pasty-faced pure white cockney lad, or a Pakistani with product in his hair driving a shit Honda or Coras pretending he's from Jamaica innit.
Aaaaargh |

Besides some accents being phonetically softer/ harder than others I think people associate accents with certain attributes and experience, and they transfer previous experience on that accent. Why would a lot of British call centres use Scottish accents when selling insurance policies for example? There has been research on the matter and some Scottish accents(I dont recall which though) are said to sound more "trustworthy " than others.
No I love most accents but have a soft spot for the Scottish  |

"A very broad Tyneside accent is hard to understand and I'm only down the road 
But Brummie has to be the worst, they all sound so thick, sorry gonna upset somebody here arnt I  "
I totally agree with you, remember that advert with Mark Williams, before he did the fast show, 'We want to be togetha' there was just something about that accent that fitted the character |

It depends also on what is considered to be an "eligible" accent, what makes the public school accent for example more successful in the application for uni/ jobs etc.
It is all about perception - no accent, broad or slight, can give an indication regarding the speaker's intelligence lol |

The worst accent in my mind isn't specific to any part of the country, it's that ridiculous sort of twisted "jamaican cod" spoken by the more stupid teens/ early twenties (usually white), that dictates instead of "Well done the bloke who thinks he's hot shit" they'll come out with "Big shout to da bwoi who tinks he a Gee, ya get meh?"
Twats... |

The irony is they all talk about bein a gangster or a "g", yet little do they realise most successful gangsters will actually describe themselves as "businessmen".... |
