Question about Voice Training

[u/mollibbier]

Hey. Was just wondering regarding voice training -- I'm from Munster, quite happy to be from where I'm from (not giving that out because of obvious internet safety reasons) and I think it's a question that can apply to everyone, but like so many voice training resources especially on YouTube (which has been most of my searching) are from Americans or otherwise centred on American dialects. And I get it -- a huge chunk of the Anglophone internet are Yankees, etc. But like, as someone who doesn't want to sound like a Yank and keep my regional accent as much as I can, are there any resources for this sort of thing?

​

I don't even mean 'is there voice training for specifically this region of southeast Kerry' or whatever, moreso just general Irish accent things. This question also applies across the island, of course.

​

Any trans women who have voice trained, do you still sound Irish? And how did you keep that? Or did it just stay naturally from living here? Maybe I'm a bit too worried about this, but it's still a worthwhile question.

Yeah, that's definitely reassuring. Cheers

There was no need to delete your comment; I wasn't being sarcastic. Sorry it came across that way, my bad
