Gambit
Character » Gambit appears in 4687 issues.
A charming master thief and skilled martial artist who became a member of the X-Men, Gambit possesses the mutant ability to change potential energy in inanimate objects into kinetic energy which causes them to explode. His signature move is throwing kinetically-charged playing cards at his opponents.
is Gambit French?
"Cajun" is a corruption of "Acadian", Acadia being the collective name for the French colonies in Maritime Canada. Most of them were deported after the Seven Years' War when they refused to sign allegiance to Britain, and a lot made their way to Spanish Louisiana.
However, Gambit's accent is wildly inaccurate for New Orleans.
" i just really dislike his Cajun accent! "It's apart of his character, who he is. Too bad. He wouldn't be the same without it.
" or is he from france or something? i just really dislike his Cajun accent! "Why would you even need to ask if he's from France if you know his accent is Cajun? Ugh, think, man!
" @ownsin: Hmm yes. >.> Because it's so cool to read how other people talk :D Like how Rogue talks with her southern accent :P "I'm from the south and sometimes I find her accent to be offensive
but on the Topic of Gambit i love the way he talks its just cool to have someone with an accent instead of him being like everyone else speaking complete english
I wish they would make Colossus's Russian accent more obvious, you know have him say "I Must Break You!"
" @hydrabob: Some people from the south do talk like that i'm sure, and i'm also sure that the writers aren't stereotyping every person who lives in the south. "do they ever say where she comes from Texas, Georgia, Virginia those are the places that i think have the strongest accents in the South
still don't like how they portray people from the South though
" @hydrabob: Is there anything besides their accents that bother you? "the accents are just the most obvious problem they all are portrayed as unintelligent
and big oofs that if they could would yell "Hulk Smash" more than the hulk
and they all are into living on the earth, Southerners aren't Native Americans
and they all aren't racists or bigots.
sorry I'm just letting off some steam
It's just not everyone you meet which is what i don't get
I mean is everyone in New York Italian? (I know they are it's a rhetorical question)
" @xxCellPhoneGirlxx said:yup, me too >_>" @ownsin: Yes i do, but i've known him with his accent since i was like three, when watching the 90's x-men, so i'm used to it lol. I also did take two years in French :P lol "@xxCellPhoneGirlxx: wow.........i feel old "
" @Darkchild said:STFU you two. I know for sure I am older than each of you. ;p" @xxCellPhoneGirlxx said:yup, me too >_> "" @ownsin: Yes i do, but i've known him with his accent since i was like three, when watching the 90's x-men, so i'm used to it lol.
