People who share the same language, French or Chinese or whatever, have the same vocal cords and emit sounds which are basically the same, as they come from the same throats and lungs.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
On average, the Chinese, Koreans, and Japanese are more similar to each other and are different from Australians, Israelis and the Swedes, who in turn are similar to each other and are different from Nigerians, Kenyans, and Jamaicans.
People come from around the world and can understand each other without even speaking the same languages!
As you know, there are certain languages that lend themselves very easily to vocal use.
For example, in Malay, there are pronunciations that are similar to Chinese.
After all, when you come right down to it, how many people speak the same language even when they speak the same language?
The cool thing about doing a voice-over into a different language is that you get to bring the character of your own culture into it.
Americans and French are notoriously monolingual, especially earlier generations. Language is a sense of pride in both cultures. I think that the French and Americans are like brothers or sisters who are so similar that they irritate one another.
My dad always told me that anyone's voice is just another instrument added to the music.
I think the first time I was ever really conscious of the difference between people's voices was that my mother's voice was so soft and gentle and her pronunciation was so perfect.
Talking in one language and talking in another, I think inevitably, produce two different personalities, as far as I've seen in other people. I assume it does the same for me.
