voice recognition technology

Hi everyone,

Welcome to this new year. I hope you'll enjoy yourselves and learn loads of stuff. To begin with, a short but hilarious video clip on the Scottish accent and its consequences. Just in case you find it a bit hard to follow (I wouldn't be surprised) I have included the scrip for a bit of help. Have fun!!!

-Where’s the buttons?

- Oh, no, they’ve installed voice recognition technology in this lift to help us.

-Voice recognition technology? In a lift? In Scotland? (Have) you ever tried voice recognition technology?

-No

-They don’t do Scottish accents

-Eleven

-Could you please repeat that?

-Eleven, eleven

-Eleven,

- Could you please repeat that?

-Eleven

-Whose idea was this? You need to try an American accent. Eleven, eleven

-That sounds Irish, not American

-It does, doesn’t’ it? Eleven

-Where in America is that? Dublin?

-I’m sorry, Could you please repeat that?

-Try an English accent, right? Eleven, eleven

-You are from the same part of England as Dick Van Dyke?

-Use yours then, smart arse.

-Please speak slowly and clearly

-Smart arse

-Eleven

-I’m sorry, could you please repeat that?

-Eleven. If you don’t understand the lingo away back came to your own country

-Is that talk now is it away back to your own country

-Oh, don’t start, Mr bleeding Haho, how can you be racist to a lift?

-Please speak slowly and clearly

-Eleven, eleven, eleven, eleven

-You are just saying it the same way!!!!

-I’m going to keep saying it until it understands Scottish, all right?

-Eleven eleven, eleven, eleven

-Well, just take us anywhere, you cow, just open the doors!!!

-This is a voice activated elevator. Please state which floor you would like to go to in a clear and calm manner

-Calm, calm. Where’s that coming from? Why is it telling people to be calm?

-Because if they knew they´d be selling it to Scottish people they would be going on for nuts at it!!!

-You have not selected a floor

-Aye, we have, eleven!!!!!!

-If you would like to get out of the elevator without selecting a floor, simply say: “Open the doors, please”

-Please, please, suck my willy

- Maybe you should just say please?

-I’m not begging that for nothing

-Open the doors, please

-Please. Pathetic

-Please, remain calm.

-Wait until I get up there. Just wait for it to speak

-You have not selected a floor.

-Up yours, you cow!!!!. You don’t want to turn these doors? I’m gonna come to America, I’m gonna find wherever desperate actress gave you a voice and I’m gonna go in an electric chair for you!!!

-Scotland, you bastards!!!!!!

_Scotland, Scotland, Scotland, Freedom, freedom…..Going up?
