For those that dont' want to click the link its basically saying Voice Recognition has problems with Scottish accents.

"The Glasgow accent is very pleasant and is heard a lot on television these days - but it causes problems for computers."

From reading the article it sounds more like the dialect rather than the accent. The accent can be reasonably pleasant but also quite horrid especially with broad weegie dialect being used...

•Ah cannae shut doon

•Ah'm gettin' right scunnered wi' Windaes 98

LOL :haha:

And those are fairly tame examples.
The favorite Aberdonian one explained to foreign students is "Far aboots ye fae" (said "furry boot ye fay") which means "Where are you from?"
