To clarify, this is not my spoken accent. This is the accent of a character in a piece I am currently writing for a class. She is my female protagonist, early twenties, born in Iceland but raised in England. I’m terrible at accents, so at this point I’ve been writing hers using some key word choice ( feck, proper, mate, ect.). Are there any goods tips or idioms that you think my improve what I have?
