I don't really have an accent. It's just a regular American voice. Then again, to people from Alabama normal is different. I don't know, but I wish I had a Bristish Accent.

I'm from North Carolina and I have a VERY thick southern (american) accent...quite entertaining when some of my family from Vermont came to visit. I think what classifies the southern accent most is speaking slowly (which I don't do), adding extra syllables to words, saying in' instead of ing at the end of words like going (here it'd be goin'), singing (singin'), and "that funny little twang" as my second cousin's brother's aunt's grand niece (or something like that) calls it.

I can speak. Period.
I have a Filipino accent. Unlike the American slang, or the British accent, Filipinos speak english pronouncing the letters the way it looks and sounds...for example, in most words with the letter "a", it is not pronounced as 'ey' but it sounds more like "aa"...but Filipinos are really good in picking up any accent, especially American. But I hate people who try so hard to pick up an Amercian/British accent, not knowing they sound like a real fake and even ridiculous.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Ari Graduated | I've been told that I either have a thick accent, or none at all. So it's basically all up to whoever I am speaking to. If you ask me, I have a realy proper New York accent. However, if I start talking fast or if I am in a heated discussion my New York accent becomes a lot more pronounced. The stereotypical kind. Eh, whatever.

I pretty much have your standard American accent although I tend to throw British slang into my speech a lot, which doesn't really mean that much I suppose....
