I thought Illianer was more Scottish BlackAdder Send a noteboard - 07/09/2010 12:15:07 AM
That's the sense I got from listening to Bayle in the audiobooks anyway.
So all the discussion of the correct accent for Moiraine in the ToM trailer got me to thinking, always dangerous... so I thought I'd toss it out to everyone.

What ARE the correct accents for the various nationalities in the Westlands? Below are a few of my guesses. I only marked an answer for countries that I have some sort of reference for in text that led me to my guess. If I don't have a clue, I've left it blank. I'm really interested in what other folks think... thanks!

Aiel Nations - Native American?
Altara -
Amadicia - Latin American?
Andor - United States: Mid-West
Arad Doman -
Borderlands - Asian varieties?
Cairhien - French
Ghealdan -
Illian - Italian
Mayene -
Murandy -
Seanchan - Texas/United States: South generally
Tarabon - French/Belgian?
Tear - Spanish
