Main character has a really strong lisp

[nomatter]

Love the game so far and decided to play it before I begin with KCD2, but the heavy lisp of the main character is really distracting, lol.

I assume Code Panda is asking just what lisp you're talking about, as Henry doesn't seem to lisp noticeably.

I noticed that in general most people really have bad ears and/or speakers. Like, if you can't hear the strong lisp of henry you really should either go to an ENT or invest more into your sound system.

You could try duolingo to improve your English skills.

I noticed that in KCD 2 Henry has a strong lispel but appearently for most native speaker this is well in the reign of beeing absolutly okay. For me, as a non native speaker, it is hard to bear in long dialogues and really beeing a thing for non native speakers only.
Nothing one can do about out that one but in KCD 1 and in my perception it really is fine though here and there one could notice that as well.

Yeah I noticed that aswell, it seems "native" speakers just ignore it because so many people (especially in England) seem to have that lisp. It might be a cognitive problem so that their brains literally cannot differentiate between sharp ESS sounds and muffled ESS sounds. I wonder what music sounds like for them lol.

Or maybe there just is no lisp and you're hearing things...? That seems like the most parsimonious explanation.

Nah, explain why everyone else in the game sounds fine then. I mean many NPCs also have a very light lisp, but that's just how some folks from England talk. With Henry though it's really intense.

It is just another language which differs to mine and I am always impressed about how different the perception is. It is annoying though but I won´t call nations inferiour for language differencies and I am sure this is not want you ment @nomatter.

Where did I call a nation inferior!? I was just talking about hearing capabilities.

It is true that people's ability to distinguish different phonemes varies depending on their native language(s) or familiarity with different languages, but that isn't a matter of hearing, it's a matter of the way phonemes are represented in your brain - basically, everyone's brain is more practiced at distinguishing the phonemes that are present and matter in their own language than those that aren't and don't. That goes for you, too - there are surely phonemes in languages foreign to you that sound just the same to you but not to native speakers. That's just an aside not really relevant to the main topic of this thread, though, as lisp is a pretty noticeable speech impairment and distinct from differences between languages. If Henry has a clear lisp, everyone would notice it, and majority of people certainly wouldn't argue that he has no lisp. If you were just claiming that he has a very slight lisp, almost unnoticeable but distracting once you do notice it, I'd be more inclined to consider the possibility that you might be onto something.

Is it a lisp? I thought it just was his accent.
