The simple equation in the title was the inspiration for this new blog. In simplest terms, it states that the Strength of a speakers accent (Sa) divided by the clarity of their connection (Cc) is equal to the speed at which they will speak (W/s or WPS). The viscosity of a person's accent, in this case, should be represented by a number range from 1-10, although any scale will suffice, provided the same scale is consistently applied. You wouldn't calculate the Pythagorean Theorem using inches on one side and centimeters on the other, now would you? Of course not. (that reminds me, we need a different question mark for rhetorical questions) Now the quality of the connection is obviously less easy to assign a value to. This could be affected by poor cellular signal, a noisy room, or poor telephone etiquette, such as the inappropriate use of speaker phone... although when is it...
