uptalk: a manner of speaking in which sentences are uttered with rising intonation at the end, as if they were questions.

I had a boss that uptalked. I hated him for a myriad of reasons, his manner of speech was the cherry on the hate sundae.

Hell no.
I hate it, a female coworker with a queens accent does it after every sentence...I had no idea the queens accent could be made more painful |

No, Hell no! A woman that was assigned my account with one of my vendors does that and every other trendy vocalization. I avoid talking to her at all costs but somehow she even communicates that way via email, maybe I just read it in her annoying voice.

I've noticed this type of speech is relatively common amongst Canadians.

"Communication" is being taken over by "showing off".

Even Australians sound stupid because of it.

Nope. If I heard someone talk to me like that I would keep asking them "are asking me a question or are you retarded?"

No and it's very annoying when people do. It seems to be the young folks that generally have this habit.

No, it's annoying. Causes men to sound like fags and women to sound like idiots. The people that do this repeat the habit in every. single. sentence. And no clue.

Nope, nor do I begin every reply with "So", nor have I ever uttered the phrase "I know, right?", because that shit is douchery of the highest degree.

Relative of mine did a paper on how people uptalked on Jeopardy....
And yeah, once you know what it is, it's super fucking annoying. |

No. That shit drives me bonkers.

Brandon Webb, SEAL. From sofrep. He is the uptalk fucking king.
Whats more fucking annoying is the way johnny depp and lisa marie presleys husband dress up. Those guys need a beatdown. |

"Uptalk" is another way of saying "talk like a faggot".
No. |

Another speech pattern that bugs me is word dragging where the speaker hangs onto a word, and drags out it's pronunciation as if for emphasis. As in "it's a loooooong time".

Is that like upselling?

Very common with southern California millennials!

No, but almost every young female I hear speaking on the radio does it, and it drives me nuts.

My wife's sister uptalks to a whole new level. My wife is picking it up slowly. I've been on her ass about it too. It's highly annoying and sounds uneducated. And she is a very educated and smart woman. I hate it and can't stop it !
