Have a question about how the TVTropes wiki works? No one knows this community better than the people in it, so ask away! Ask the Tropers is the page you come to when you have a question burning in your brain and the support pages didn't help.
It's not for everything, though. For a list of all the resources for your questions, click here. You can also go to this Directory thread

Well, IDK if it's allowed, but it isn't Natter. Natter is Conversation on the Main Page.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure Pureness
Personally not a fan of the typed out phonetics, I think it makes the example look dumb. But I don't know the site's policy on the matter.
AS ^ said, it's def not natter.

I'd rephrase the second example to match the first one, or would just retype it normally. It's not Natter, but it isn't doing a great job explaining the example in this manner.

Sorry, I thought it's Natter because I thought joking is a part of conversation in RL. I change the title already.

^Natter is not that sort of conversation.
As for the the second example, I'd say that jokes like that are allowed in principle, but this particular one is overdone, with the ALL CAPS and exclamation mark, and it really doesn't work that well in a written medium. It would be funnier if spoken out loud.

The caps (and maybe also the final "ja") are going overboard a bit, but the accent is funny and helps illustrate things, in my opinion.
I also feel that the accent is illustrative but the caps are unneeded.
Ok , how about I remove the caps, ja and exclamation point? And I'll add the humor mode trope on it. Here's my example:
- The Rocketeer: The Nazi spy, Neville Sinclair, played by Timothy Dalton, after speaking perfect English the whole movie, zuddenly haz ze german acczent vunce he iss expozed.
What do you think?

Looks good.
I agree with Tabs, that looks way better and is still funny.
Yes, that's not so overblown and the joke still works.
The rewrite looks good.
THE GOLDEN AGE WILL RETURN AGAIN!
Looks good, but Timothy Dalton is irrelevant.
Might be a way to hide the length of the spoiler.
One important correction to the re-write: "German" begins with a capital G.
Ok thank you guys. I'll rewrite it soon.

So I was looking at this trope page of Accent Relapse where I found an example from the movie called The Rocketeer where the example is different then the one on the main page. I mean the way someone describe it in Accent Relapse page in a joking manner.
