I like to hear the Maori accent - watching some NZ based shows
I've seen the Thor movies with the rock man and his accent. I don't know what it is, but there's something about his accent that is very easy and pleasant to hear.
The missus like's mysteries, so we've watched "My Life is Murder" which stars Lucy Lawless. It started out in Aus but then moved to NZ. I don't remember hearing the Maori accent in that one, but I'm sure that I did. But now we're watching "Brokenwood" which is a mystery series based in a small NZ town and features Maori quite a bit, now especially in the last couple of seasons that we've watched. It's watching this show that I realized that I believe the accent that I like is particular to Maori when they are speaking English. It's cool.
