felch me daddy jr. posted:Even this is pretty awkward most of the time imo, as the Osaka/Kansai dialect has widely different cultural connotations from southern American, but of course American English is one of the poorest languages in the world in terms of regional variance, so southern is the only go-to "different" dialect. Maybe I'm reading into this a little bit, but "America has almost no dialects so they can't really capture the nuance of an Osaka dialect in translation" sounds a little "nakama is untranslatable" to me.

This is going back a bit to accent chat, so sorry. But I was thinking that I liked how they did it in 'Allo 'Allo. All the characters speaking in pantomime French accents were supposed to be speaking French, the downed English airmen spoke with plummy English accents, as did the resistance woman who was translating for them. And the Policeman/English agent who supposedly could not speak French very well, spoke in kinda pidgin English mispronouncing all his words. It was easily understandable, and was consistent with the setting and tone of the show, (broad farce). This falls down a little, coz the German characters spoke in exagerated German accents, but were understood by the French people, and I don't remember any scenes where they were speaking German amongst themselves. But again, the whole show was meant to be silly and broad.

What I really love about this post is that these insults don't even apply. Fighting games are the focal point of his existence, there aren't rainbow flags all over, he's not constantly complaining about straight people, and the reason he dresses like a clown is unrelated to the gayness.

Yeah, that was my journey too. I saw the brown bottle hanging and thought "well, I can see what you're saying but that seems like kind of a stre-" and then clicked the full thing and saw the hoods and yeah that's definitely a lynching.

there wolf posted:Yeah, it's done by a hobbiest who's criteria aren't the best. Like they don't keep track of AAVE because they don't think it's any different from classical southern, just dispersed more. But it was the first map that tracked a bunch of different things instead of just, like, a single word. Fair enough, I'm not a native speaker and have never lived in the US so I'm open to being wrong (and couldn't find any scholarly sources backing up my claim through a quick google, although I'm not sure that's really expected). My stance is based on both media and talking to a lot of native speakers from many different parts of the US and Canada, as well as my knowledge of other languages with starker regional variance. I agree that the general public's familiarity with certain dialects to some extent dictates which ones get used in translation, which is kind of what I was talking about when I said generic southern is the go-to "different" dialect in the US. snergle posted:lol? ca alone has like 3 regional dialects theres about 3 in NC as well. noone in appalachia sounds like people from the outer banks and the people from charlotte or raleigh sound different from the other 2. I'm not saying the US doesn't have dialects, I'm saying that the difference between different dialects in American English is usually smaller than in many other languages. As someone pointed out earlier, this would make sense considering the US is a relatively young country (I don't know much about Australian English, but I would expect the situation to be similar there). christmas boots posted:Maybe I'm reading into this a little bit, but "America has almost no dialects so they can't really capture the nuance of an Osaka dialect in translation" sounds a little "nakama is untranslatable" to me. It's not about the untranslatable beauty of the glorious Japanese language, it's more pointing out that one of the many nuances that usually gets lost in J->E translation has to do with dialects, and how that is connected to each country/language's relationship to regional dialects. (And nakama is easy, it means comrade.  )

There are probably a bunch of people who just don't like the song, but it being initially eligible for "top country song" then suddenly being yanked out of eligibility is absolutely about racism.

rodbeard posted:Maybe racism factored into it, but it's not a country song. I've had this argument like five times now and still nobody's been able to tell me how Old Town Road is less country than--for example--Meant To Be, which is mostly acoustic piano and light hip hop / trap beats (or at least heavy influences in that direction), or We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together, which was literally written and designed as a pop hit (they just switched out some of the instruments to top the country charts), or my favorite--All Summer Long by Kid Rock, which peaked at #4 on the Hot Country Billboards. All Summer Long uses the guitar solo from Sweet Home Alabama (which did not, as far as I'm aware, ever make it on any country charts), but otherwise samples Werewolves of London (a song with similar chord progression, but definitely not a country song). None of these had a controversy attached, a total mystery we'll never solve I don't even like the god drat song myself but country song purity is bullshit, someone please get me out of Oklahoma

music evolves over time and though one can make a credible argument that old town road does not fit the traditional definition of country, there are certainly going to be more country rap songs in the future as young people greatly prefer pop rap over pop rock, and the country music industry gatekeepers who run things like the country music awards can adapt with the times or not. at the very least they should prepare their aging boomer audience for the future of this kind of crappy folk music knockoff evolution by having a country rap category

I don't listen to country but I'm surrounded by people that do and people definitely get salty about Taylor Swift every time she charts. I don't know enough about the other songs you've mentioned but Old Town Road somehow was number 1 on the country chart despite not being liked by any country fans.

Old Town Road is absolutely modern country. Florida Georgia Line has been doing the country rap thing for years and they don't get booted from the Billboard Country charts, I wonder what the difference could be hmmmmmmmmmm
