American English was a mistake!
I like to troll Americans occasionally by calling American English 'English (simplified)'.

I don’t think it’s a book on accents, its a phonetic book for learning English. I have one for learning French, it’s in English phonetic to pronounce French words. Just a different way to learn the language.
I daresay it was a book sold in America for 'English Pronunciation', or something, but it definitely spells out an American accent, which is understandable. Not sure why the person in the post feels so called out by it, other than ignorance of one's own accent, but whatever, the 'translations' are pretty fun.
I always kind of enjoy reading spelled out accents as a literary exercise. Pratchett was great at it with the Mac Nac Feegle, for e.g., and wasn't that James Joyce's whole thing?
Sh'g'r, Cthulhu's booty call
Well that was a fun read!
To be fair, it’s cause you can speak faster that way.
what phonetic writing system is this? it's definitely not IPA, but it kinda resembles it?
American IPA.
I'd rather have a Czech pilsner, thanks
my favorite playful insult is "I just KNOW you got beef with your phones speech-to-text", I live in Florida so it's pretty common to talk to people with southern accents and they ALL get misunderstood when trying to send a text while driving or something and it's hilarious
My brother in law has a really southern accent from his dad and both me and my sister got the autistic trait of "adopt speaking patterns from people around you subconsciously" so we both sound like we're making fun of him by accident sometimes without realizing 😭😭
he caught a beer can with a fishing pole once. That was cool
Exotic coloration and a big one to! Definitely a keeper
Where's the lie?
There is no lie. It's just tough to admit that it's fairly accurate.
You could definitely turn this into a game, giving english speaking participants the phonetic sentence to translate would be funny.
Mad Gab/Incohearent are essentially this. They're fun little party games

..coffee with lemon? 🤨🤔
First thing I thought, too. For tea, yes, but for coffee? Madness!
A few drops of lemon juice helps cut the bitterness. Just be careful about adding milk or cream!
Just tell him that he doesn't drink real mate, and that spanish doesn't have that many sh sounds in it.
"I took my yerba mate to yoga class in Mr Miyagis ying yang dojo" is not meant to be pronounced as "Sho shevo mi sherba mate al clase de shoga en el dosho shing shang de señor mishagi"
EDIT: the guide is missing the "W" in coffee.
Nice try, Jar Jar, but your Sith tactics won't work here.
