      There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!
Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.
- ex. How do I change oil
- ex. How to tie shoes
- ex. Can you cry underwater?
Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!
Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐.

They sound like Anglos because they're speaking English?
It's a fairy tale. Not sure if there are rules here.
No, everyone else literally has an arabic accent
Except for the Sultan, Jafar, Iago, the Genie, the Cave of Wonders... which are almost all of the named characters. Gazeem and the peddler at the beginning are the only characters I can think of that had noticeable accent that wasn't British or American.
Yeah, looking at a character list, that's actually basically every character of note. That's for the original, though it does occur to me that whoever did the voice for some international dubbed release might be different.

There were apparently releases for Egyptian and Standard Arabic.
