Why all Khajiit NPCs sound Russian?
Are they supposed to be related to Russian Blues or something?
Everytime I hear one talk it makes me wonder.

    We'll they're based off romani culture, who spread from India to parts of eastern europe/middle east.it's only fitting they would have this. And it's not just there speech, the wagons,architecture, clothing as well.

    I don't think they sound Russian at all. And if you have ever met a talking Russian Blue, with or without an accent, I would suggest to lay off any moon-sugar, skooma, (or any other substances) for a while ;):D

    It's a cultural thing. The Khajiit that are not raised within a Khajiiti community usually do not speak in third person (and do not have that accent either). There is one in Wrothgar who was raised with Orcs, and one in the Reaper's March that "talks like an Imperial" (your character can point that out).
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    Cool I haven't played any of the dlc. I don't remember any Khajiit in the regular portion of the game that spoke differently.

    I havent run across that Imperial Imperial Khajiit yet.Every one I have spoken with has had an accent. I think its great.Same with the third person bit.
    It is uniquely Khajiit.
    I was just wondering why they made them that way. :)

    I can see more Romanian in it than Russian, but not so much that I hear it and think it's a Romanian accent (I have spent quite a bit of time in Romania, and also know several Romanians here where I live in London).

    I have Romanian neighbors in the apartment next to me.I love them dearly,but the Khajiits dont really sound like them.
    (For some odd reason,there are quite a few Romanians living where I do.)

    Accents from around the world fascinate me. I tend to listen and ananalye the little nuances to better identify them. I love the Scottish accent. I don't think I can take anyone with a Scottish accent seriously. Everything is funny in a Scottish accent.

    Romanian to me

    I can see more Romanian in it than Russian, but not so much that I hear it and think it's a Romanian accent (I have spent quite a bit of time in Romania, and also know several Romanians here where I live in London).

    Accents from around the world fascinate me. I tend to listen and ananalye the little nuances to better identify them. I love the Scottish accent. I don't think I can take anyone with a Scottish accent seriously. Everything is funny in a Scottish accent.

    Have you ever actually been to Scotland?

    you want to hear something crazy listen to hungarian and then listen to scottish. they sound amazingly similar.

    No they don't really.

    i was reffering to scottish gaelic,not just the accent

    i think thats one of the coolest traits they have,sometimes they go overboard,but it certainly sets them apart from any other race in the lore.

    I like it as well, just can't help thinking they have some sort of personality issue

    It's a cultural thing. The Khajiit that are not raised within a Khajiiti community usually do not speak in third person (and do not have that accent either). There is one in Wrothgar who was raised with Orcs, and one in the Reaper's March that "talks like an Imperial" (your character can point that out).

    Cool I haven't played any of the dlc. I don't remember any Khajiit in the regular portion of the game that spoke differently.

    All Khajiit speak with an accent.It sounds Russian to me.I almost mistook it for German,..for one second.(wishfull thinking on my part,I think)

    Unfortunately no I haven't. It is one of the few places outside of the US I would love to go.

    Before you do, I suggest you rid yourself of the notion that everything is funny in a Scottish accent, and resist all attempts to suggest that while you are there ;)
