/datum/accent/ceti
name = ACCENT_CETI
description = "Often described as the \"true\" way of speaking Tau Ceti Basic, the Biesellite accent is easy to reproduce due to the phonetics of TCB."
tag_icon = "biesel"
text_tag = "BSL"
/datum/accent/coc
name = ACCENT_COC
description = "The frontier is home to an unknowably vast amount of humans and settlements, covering everything from small outposts of only a few hundred to major planets such as \
Xanu Prime. It is difficult to define a standard \"Coalition accent,\" or dialect due to the diversity and regionalism of the Coalition, along with its lack of a strong central government. \
Solarian linguists generally define the Coalition dialect as an umbrella encompassing all Freespeak native speakers not from a major settlement of the Coalition."
tag_icon = "coalition"
text_tag = "COA"
/datum/accent/elyra
name = ACCENT_ELYRA
description = "The typical Elyran accent is a relatively nondescript affair, typically sticking close to the accepted dictionary norms of pronunciation. The standard language \
of the Republic of Elyra is Elyran Standard, a constructed language which melds elements of Arabic, Farsi, and Turkish into one standardised tongue. This variation of Elyran Standard \
is the one officially taught in schools, but is rarely able to overpower more significant regional variations in the language."
tag_icon = "elyra"
text_tag = "ELY"
/datum/accent/eridani
name = ACCENT_ERIDANI
description = "The accent of Eridanian \"suits\" is almost universally looked upon as the accent of corporate excellence throughout the Sol Alliance and Republic of Biesel. \
Speaking with this accent is a surefire way to get one's foot into the door in the corporate world, and wealthier Suits often devote time and resources to refining their \
accent to be more properly Eridanian."
tag_icon = "eridani"
text_tag = "ERI"
/datum/accent/eridani_reinstated
name = ACCENT_ERIDANIREINSTATED
description = "The clipped and clinical tones of proper \"corporate\" speech in Eridani are difficult to perfect even for those born into positions of privilege. \
For those unfortunate individuals born outside Eridani's shining skyscrapers and silver spires, the distinctly uncorporate flow of \"dreg\" speech can make attaining \
the standard Eridanian accent almost impossible to fully achieve. The curious middle-ground accent of the so-called \"reinstated\" in Eridani society allows an individual \
to go much further than its more criminally-aligned counterpart, but still falls short of most suits' expectations."
tag_icon = "eridani_reinstated"
text_tag = "REI"
/datum/accent/eridani_dreg
name = ACCENT_ERIDANIDREG
description = "The Eridanian \"dreg\" accent is almost universally looked upon as the accent of petty criminals and ne'er-do-wells throughout the Orion Spur. \
Speaking with this accent in the proximity of most humans is a surefire way to gain their suspicion, and those speaking with this accent often find themselves under \
enhanced security surveillance in corporate facilities. Eagle Corp, one of the major employers of dregs in Eridani, devotes a significant amount of its training \
to making its dreg recruits drop this distinctive accent."
tag_icon = "eridani_dreg"
text_tag = "DRG"
/datum/accent/sol
name = ACCENT_SOL
description = "The typical Solarian accent has a hundred tiny variants and can be found on a multitude of planets in countless systems, and is often simply regarded \
as the \"accent of humanity\" due to its prevalence. It can be found on planets as prominent as Earth or as obscure as settlements of only a few million in the Sol Alliance's Outer Ring."
tag_icon = "sol"
text_tag = "SOL"
/datum/accent/scarab
name = ACCENT_SCARAB
description = "The common accent of the Scarab Fleet has dozens, perhaps hundreds, of small variations due to the Fleet itself being spread throughout a massive number of \
individual ships, most of which have their own unique variations upon the standard Scarab accent."
tag_icon = "scarabs"
text_tag = "SCA"
/datum/accent/silversun_original
name = ACCENT_SILVERSUN_ORIGINAL
description = "The native accent of Silversun is a sing-song take on standard Sol Common that has, since massive investment into the planet by Idris Incorporated, come to be associated with the planet's renowned tourism industry. \
Many native residents of Silversun are bitter that their accent - and planet - are seen as nothing more than an enormous vacation retreat by the greater Orion Spur. This accent is commonly used by Idris Incorporated shell positronic \
frames, much to the consternation of Silversun's Originals."
tag_icon = "silversun_original"
text_tag = "SIO"
/datum/accent/silversun_expatriate
name = ACCENT_SILVERSUN_EXPATRIATE
description = "The accent of Silversun's wealthy Idris Incorporated-aligned minority population is rooted in Tradeband dialects from Eridani and Luna rather than the Sol Common dialect of the Originals, making it audibly distinctive \
compared to the 'native' accent of the planet. This accent is most commonly associated with Idris Incorporated employees from Silversun, which tend to be overwhelmingly from the Expatriate population. Many Idris Incorporated positronics \
are programmed with this accent, and it is often regarded as the unofficial accent of the megacorporation."
tag_icon = "silversun_expatriate"
text_tag = "SIE"
/datum/accent/phong
name = ACCENT_PHONG
description = "New Hai Phongese Common is, compared to the typical Sol Common accent, much more tonal. This has lent it a distinctive accent that is easy to tell apart from the \
standard Sol Common accent associated with the Solarian core worlds. Due to the hazardous environmental conditions present on New Hai Phong, many residents of New Hai Phong \
carry another distinctive auditory cue: coughing and wheezing due to asthma."
tag_icon = "new_hai_phong"
text_tag = "NHP"
/datum/accent/mars
name = ACCENT_MARTIAN
description = "Martian Common is a more guttural form of Sol Common that borrows some elements of Freespeak. The distinctive accent is, as a result, looked down upon as \
a \"hick\" dialect on Luna and Venus and regarded as the dialect of quarrelsome and annoying Martians elsewhere. Some Martians go to great lengths to hide their accents due to \
this reputation, which is still alive in the Republic of Biesel despite its separation from the greater Sol Alliance."
tag_icon = "mars"
text_tag = "MAR"
/datum/accent/luna
name = ACCENT_LUNA
description = "The Lunarian accent is regarded throughout the Sol Alliance, and beyond, as a distinctive mark of being Lunarian. The accent is extremely hard for immigrants to Luna \
to pick up and replicate, and is carefully maintained by Lunarians abroad to keep their accent distinct. Many Idris Incorporated IPCs are programmed with Lunarian accents to make \
them seem high-class in both appearance and in accent."
tag_icon = "luna"
text_tag = "LUN"
/datum/accent/gibson_ovan
name = ACCENT_GIBSON_OVAN
description = "The New Gibson Ovanstad accent is very close to the accent of Tau Ceti proper, due to the nature of the planet's colonization. However, New Gibsoners are known for talking \
with a faster and more clipped accent than those from Biesel and, at times, sound as if they are tripping over their words due to the rapid pace at which they speak."
tag_icon = "gibson_ovan"
text_tag = "OVA"
/datum/accent/gibson_undir
name = ACCENT_GIBSON_UNDIR
description = "The New Gibson Undirstad accent is not wildly known or heard outside of New Gibson itself, as those hailing from the Undirstads are quite insular and isolated from the more attractive surface archologies. The Undirstad accent is much slower than the Ovanstad accent, \
and keeps more to its cultural roots."
tag_icon = "gibson_undir"
text_tag = "UND"
/datum/accent/konyang
name = ACCENT_KONYAN
description = "The Konyanger Common accent is quite similar to standard Sol Common, but has drawn some influence from Freespeak due to Konyang's position near the border between \
the Sol Alliance and the Coalition of Colonies. A significant amount of IPCs possess a Konyanger accent, due to the planet being the origin of IPCs and a major producer of them."
tag_icon = "konyang"
text_tag = "KNY"
/datum/accent/himeo
name = ACCENT_HIMEO
description = "Himean Common is more guttural and harsh-sounding than the typical Sol Common accent, due to Himeo's position in the Coalition of Colonies. The Himean accent and its \
distinctive guttural method of speaking are easily distinguishable from other Sol Common speakers, even when speaking Tau Ceti Basic or Freespeak. Himean Common has the unusual \
reputation of making its speaker always sound angry, no matter the speaker's mood, due to its more guttural nature."
tag_icon = "himeo"
text_tag = "HIM"
/datum/accent/vysoka
name = ACCENT_VYSOKA
description = "The typical Vyoskan accent is regarded as a throatier and harsher variation of Freespeak, with the planetary accent possessing many harsh tones. Some non-Vysokans have \
noted that the accent sounds similar to Himean Common at times, due to both accents being more guttural than average. However, the Vysokan accent remains distinctive from Himean \
Common due to its roots in Freespeak rather than Sol Common."
tag_icon = "vysoka"
text_tag = "VYS"
/datum/accent/venus
name = ACCENT_VENUS
description = "Venusian Common (referred to as Cytherean Common on Venus itself) is often regarded as one of the most prevalent forms \
of Sol Common due to Venus' massive entertainment industry. On Venus itself this accent is associated with the entertainment industry \
and Cytherea, and many prospective actors will attempt to adopt it in order to better fit into the industry. Many high-end entertainment \
IPCs used throughout human space come pre-programmed with this accent, due to its association with the Venusian entertainment industry."
tag_icon = "venus"
text_tag = "VEN"
/datum/accent/venusjin
name = ACCENT_VENUSJIN
description = "While Cytherean Common has a reputation abroad as \"Venusian Common\" it is the accent of working-class Jintarians that is, \
to many on the planet, the true form of Venusian Common. On Venus itself this accent is associated with the working and middle-class \
population of the planet rather than the entertainment industry, and many Cythereans look down upon those with this accent as unrefined. \
Hendrik Strom, one of the Sol Alliance's most notable politicians, is well-known for having a strong Jintarian accent he makes no attempt to hide."
tag_icon = "venus_surfacer"
text_tag = "JIN"
/datum/accent/dominia_high
name = ACCENT_DOMINIA_HIGH
description = "The less common Dominian accent is High Morozi, a variation of Tradeband found upon Moroz itself. While Vulgar Morozi is typically associated with the common citizenry of the Empire, \
High Morozi is associated with the Imperial nobility. While most typically associated with nobles it is often taught to wealthy commoners in order to more easily brush shoulders with nobility. \
This accent is one of the most readily-recognised markers of Dominian nobility abroad."
tag_icon = "dominia_high"
text_tag = "HMR"
/datum/accent/dominia_vulgar
name = ACCENT_DOMINIA_VULGAR
description = "The most common Dominian accent is Vulgar Morozi, a variation of Sol Common found upon Moroz itself. Though heavily influenced by Tradeband Vulgar Morozi is considered to be a \
dialect of Sol Common rather than a distinct Tradeband dialect. Vulgar Morozi has regional variations on the colonies of the Dominian Empire, and in the rebellious Morozian region of Fisanduh. \
The Fisanduhian accent is considered to be a distinctive higher-pitched variation of Vulgar Morozi that is often suppressed by insurgents to better blend in with the greater Imperial population."
tag_icon = "dominia_vulgar"
text_tag = "VMR"
/datum/accent/jupiter
name = ACCENT_JUPITER
description = "The Jovian accent is an odd mish-mash of accents from Jupiter's various moons, and has heavy variation on each of the moons. On Europa, the Jovian accent often takes on traces of \
Tradeband due to the amount of high-income tourism, while the Callistean Jovian accent is known for the rapid, breathless pace at which it is typically spoken. Ganymede is often seen as the standard \
Jovian accent, though some on Castillo vehemently believe that the Callistean accent should be considered the standard."
tag_icon = "jupiter"
text_tag = "JUP"
/datum/accent/callisto
name = ACCENT_CALLISTO
description = "Considered to be one of the most recognizable accents in the Sol System due to its uniquely breathless pace, the stereotypical Callistean accent has its roots in the moon's \
port district of New Valletta. While not all Callisteans speak with the breathless pace of those from New Valletta, the district's status as a port has led to its accent becoming the moon's most \
recognized one. As a whole the Callistean accent can be easily recognized by its fast pace of speaking and seeking disregard for pauses."
tag_icon = "callisto"
text_tag = "CAL"
/datum/accent/europa
name = ACCENT_EUROPA
description = "Europans are known to be much quieter and speak at a slower pace than their counterparts on Callisto, despite the close proximity of the two moons. Solarian linguists have \
traced the whisper-like nature of the accent origins to the planet's submarines: crews believed that quieter voices interfered less with sonar, and were less likely to be heard by whatever was \
outside the hull. Europans that have succumbed to \"Deep Crazy\", a psychological phenomenon found on the moon, are known to abandon the typically hushed nature of Europan speech for screaming hysterically."
tag_icon = "europa"
text_tag = "EUR"
/datum/accent/earth
name = ACCENT_EARTH
description = "The typical Earth, or Terran, accent of the modern era has its roots in Mandarin Chinese, the dominant language of Earth for much of its modern history. All accents found in human space - \
from Luna to Xanu - are, one way or another, descended from this ancient accent."
tag_icon = "earth"
text_tag = "EAR"
/datum/accent/xanu
name = ACCENT_XANU
description = "The Xanu Standard dialect is arguably the most notable Freespeak dialect. Xanu Standard first emerged as an informal creole designed to make communication between the various nationalities \
who settled the planet more easily and possessed loan words from upwards of a half-dozen languages during this early period. Over time this creole would morph into the Xanu Standard dialect of Freespeak \
and is arguably the oldest and most widespread of the 25th century's common Freespeak dialects. Freespeak taught abroad, such as in the Serene Republic of Elyra and Republic of Biesel, is most often based upon the Xanu Standard dialect."
tag_icon = "xanu"
text_tag = "XAN"
/datum/accent/ncf
name = ACCENT_NCF
description = "The non-Coalition frontier 'accent' is not a true accent in of itself, but is instead used as a catch-all term for human accents originating outside of the frontier controlled by the Coalition of Colonies. \
These planets and systems vary wildly, and all sorts of people and places can be found within them."
tag_icon = "noncoalitionfrontier"
text_tag = "NCF"
/datum/accent/fisanduh
name = ACCENT_FISANDUH
description = "While it is similar to the typical Morozian accent, to those not familiar with it; or not from the Empire of Dominia, the standard Fisanduhian accent has some variations that mark it as distinctive. \
The accent is higher pitched than its Dominian counterpart, and has been described as more tonal. Members of the Fisanduh Freedom Front will often go to great lengths to disguise this accent, \
though most will slip back into it when off-world."
tag_icon = "fisanduh"
text_tag = "FIS"
/datum/accent/gadpathur
name = ACCENT_GADPATHUR
description = "The Gadpathurian accent, otherwise known as Gadpathurian Common, is an older dialect of Sol Common that is often regarded as dated-sounding by other speakers due to the \
isolation of the planet during its period of reunification. Due to the government's tight control over Gadpathur, and push for unity in the face of the Sol Alliance, Gadpathurians have \
been described as sounding relatively similar no matter which area of the planet they hail from."
tag_icon = "gadpathur"
text_tag = "GAD"
/datum/accent/pluto
name = ACCENT_PLUTO
description = "The Plutonian accent is one of many Sol Common accents found throughout the Sol System itself, though it is almost undoubtedly the furthest one out from the Sun itself. Rooted in a combination \
of Central Asian and Eastern European dialects, the Plutonian accent is notable for its slow, methodical method of speech. Very few positronics can be found with this accent, due to Pluto's unusual relationship with corporations."
tag_icon = "pluto"
text_tag = "PLU"
/datum/accent/assunzione
name = ACCENT_ASSUNZIONE
description = "The Assunzionii accent is one of the most unusual found in the Coalition of Colonies, due to the planet's colonial roots in the Mediterranean. Heavily influenced by Romance languages the Assunzionii dialect is \
most notable for its elegant-sounding and evenly-paced method of speaking compared to rougher-sounding Coalition and frontier dialects. Liturgical Assunzionii is a small subset of this dialect, and is generally only spoken during \
Luceian services and can be distinguished by its use of archaic language."
tag_icon = "assunzione"
text_tag = "ASU"
/datum/accent/visegrad
name = ACCENT_VISEGRAD
description = "The Visegradi accent is unique for that of a Solarian world, being a Tradeband accent with strong influences from the various languages of the Warsaw Pact on Earth. Decidedly harsh and characterized by unusual \
and eclectic pronunciation, it can be fairly difficult to parse for those unfamiliar with it. This is only somewhat stymied by the fact that Visegradi people tend to speak very loudly, an adaptation necessitated by the need to \
make oneself heard during the planet's torrential downpours."
tag_icon = "visegrad"
text_tag = "VIS"
/datum/accent/sancolette
name = ACCENT_SANCOLETTE
description = "The Colettish dialect belongs to the larger linguistic family of Tradeband but unlike many of its counterparts, it is descended from Earth-based Tradeband dialects rather than Luna-based dialects. \
It is easily distinguished from its Lunan contemporaries by its differences in pronunciation and tone, and still retains many of its linguistic roots from Earth."
tag_icon = "sancolette"
text_tag = "SAN"
/datum/accent/valkyrie
name = ACCENT_VALKYRIE
description = "The Valkyrian accent is a difficult accent to replicate, mostly due to the cultural melting pot in which it exists. Influences from across the Orion Spur have impacted the development of the accent, with \
traces of Sol Common, Tau Ceti Basic, Elyran Common and even Vulgar Morozi."
tag_icon = "valkyrie"
text_tag = "VAL"
/datum/accent/mictlan
name = ACCENT_MICTLAN
description = "The Mictlanian accent is a variation on Tradeband that is usually recognized as being folksy and warm. This welcoming, soft voice is one of the reasons the planet of Mictlan has seen a boom in tourism. While \
some youth may try to sound rebellious and conceal the softness of their voice, this musicality is still prevalent and universally recognizable."
tag_icon = "mictlan"
text_tag = "MIC"
/datum/accent/antillia
name = ACCENT_ANTILLIA
description = "There are two distinct dialects present on the planet: one that sees heavy lifting from Tradeband and the other more influenced by Solarian Common. It is relatively easy to identify the differences between the two: Antilleans influenced by Tradeband sound more nasal and rhythmic, whereas those that grew up in regions where Solarian Common is the dominant language are more soft-spoken and enunciated."
tag_icon = "antillia"
text_tag = "PRT"
/datum/accent/persepolis
name = ACCENT_PERSEPOLIS
description = "Well-known across Elyra for its rapid-fire, energetic cadence, the Persepolitian accent is characterised by a vibrant and fast-paced nature that represents the New Ankaran Jewel's cosmopolitan nature. \
Speakers of this variant of Elyran Standard tend to be affluent and well-cultured, in keeping with the Elyran capital's general prosperity."
tag_icon = "persepolis"
text_tag = "PER"
/datum/accent/medina
name = ACCENT_MEDINA
description = "Medinan Elyran is characterised by its breathy and almost stutter-step characteristics, both of which are thought to result from the elevated altitudes citizens experience living day-to-day in their \
sand-skimming cities. The variation has seen little spread outside Medina itself, owing to the planet's relatively minimal footprint on Elyran cinema and television."
tag_icon = "medina"
text_tag = "MED"
/datum/accent/aemaq
name = ACCENT_AEMAQ
description = "Aemaqi Elyran is often described as a more considered and methodical variation on the standard dictionary dialect, and its speakers are frequently stereotyped as speaking slowly and languidly. Elements of Tradeband \
from the planet's Dominian refugee population have helped to reinforce this effect, and the variation is rarely found in those born off Aemaq itself or its innumerable orbital stations."
tag_icon = "aemaq"
text_tag = "AEM"
/datum/accent/newsuez
name = ACCENT_NEWSUEZ
description = "Often labelled the most divergent large-scale variation of Elyran Standard, the New Suezi accent has evolved rapidly since the moon's megacorporate opening to mix elements of Freespeak, Basic, and even Solarian Common \
into its vocabulary and grammar. While purists might frown upon these deviations from the accepted linguistic standard, the melodic and almost singsong tones of the New Suezi variation feature increasingly often across many forms of Elyran media."
tag_icon = "newsuez"
text_tag = "NSZ"
/datum/accent/damascus
name = ACCENT_DAMASCUS
description = "One of the most venerable of all Elyra's linguistic variations, the Damascene accent is famous across the Serene Republic for its scholarly, almost archaic air. Drawing more heavily from Arabic influence \
than the standard dictionary might, Damascene Elyran retains a refined, cultured, and historically resonant weight to its words, much like the storied planet itself."
tag_icon = "damascus"
text_tag = "DAM"
