It was difficult for me!! My favorite word was "Pardon?" I wasn't used to watch series nor films in original version so it was really hard, and to make things worst, the father of the family hadn't got teeth and I think I never understood a word he said!! I smiled and said yes

Umm, for the record in the future, when a guy with no teeth smiles and asks a question, you're probably better off saying no or no thank you. Trust me. I live in the rural South of the US.

[Beatriz]

LOL!! I'll take that into account!!

My favourite fruit is the mango.

[Nia M]

Mine is the pineapple (of the ones I am not allergic to )

[LucasNorthFan]

I'm not much of a fruit-girl, I like some of them and still I rarely eat them, on the other hand I do like most of the vegetables.

As I'm new I thought I might as well add to this.
I am a chameleon (if that's how you spell it) with accents. I copy whoever's accent I hear. I think this is because I used to live in Ireland, lived up north for a month or so and now live in the se of England so hear essex accents all the time.

My three favourite accents of all time are Northern ones, Irish ones and Russian ones

[bertowud]

I do something similar. I've spent a lot of time around my family recently and I sound like a full blown red neck. It will take me almost a week to get back to my mostly unaccented self.
