when ppl say she has a “posh” accent, it’s not like the Queen Elizabeth kind of posh lol like It’s more of a mix. she grew up selling perfumes to wealthy clients, so she naturally picked up parts of their accent when speaking to them :) but at the same time, she still has traces of an Arabic/Egyptian accent .. so it ends up sounding like a blend — posh English mixed with Egyptian?¿ The thing is, she’s just very well-spoken and articulate, which is why ppl in Birmingham assume she has a posh accent. It’s not really about her sounding upper-class, just that she speaks clearly and elegantly kind of like the “posh” ppl do
& yh she’s fluent in Arabic since she’s lived in Egypt all her life but she also speaks Sicilian Italian and understands the northern dialect !!
I hope that makes sense !! & thank you sm, I barely get any feedback on that fic, so I’m really glad you liked it <3
