Hmmm. I think you live relatively close to there, right (*)? Also, I
suppose you meant to say "non-native speaker" if you were referring to
me. But I appreciate the slip of your tongue :-).
One of the popular science programs here has a presenter that always
raises his voice towards the end of the sentences. He sounds vaguely
similar to this accent except that his is perfectly clear. Well, he's a
popular science program presenter after all.
Wondrous, wondrous indeed.
(*) No hint, no pun, nothing, merely pointing out something that
occurred to me.
