I have a Californian accent mixed with about 0.5% Chinese accent.
But no one notices it. I live in Houston where a lot of kids speak southerly but I just naturally developed a Californian accent

I do....not have an accent.
Seriously, I took like 5 tests that were able to name the exact region where I'm from and they all said, "It's just our way of saying, in other words, you have no accent. You would be great in a career in broadcast or radio because you have the accentlessness for it!"
Well that was paraphrasing but still, no accent here. Ta ta.
Oh, and I'm purrrty awesome at a sloppy British accent. Yarb. And Michigany/Northerny. And Bronx, I love doing New Yorker accents. And the accent Lois from Family Guy has, maaan I do a good Lois impression.
But as for me, I have nada.

I hail from Chicago, so, I have a Chicago accent. A pretty thick one, actually. My dad was raised a lot closer to the city than I was, so I think I pick it up from him, cause even people at my school say my accent is more pronounced than theirs. It's fun going to other states and having people know right away where I'm from
And I basically stink at all other accents  I can make myself "accentless" like Roro said above  But I don't like doing it, it feels unnatural

well i think i have a normal west yorkshire (english) accent now but when i first moved to where i live now everyone there said i talked really posh, probz becos im half english and quarter italian and ukrainian so i guess before i moved there i had an english/italian/ukrainian accent but im quite good at imitating accents, especially french and spasnish so im quite good at speaking in those languages when im in school. So i guess ive got a multi-accent |

I'm Dutch, so I suppose I have a Dutch accent.. My pronunciation isn't really good, it's probably my weakest point in any language.

I've just got a regular American accent, I guess. But when I speak Farsi I have a thick Iranian accent.

I don't really like my Scottish accent 
It doesn't sound as strong in my head but when I record myself it's a bit woah
It's not as strong as say Cho Chang's in the films

Well I'm English, from Newcastle so I have a Geordie accent. Though everyone outside of the North East thinks I'm Scottish ...or Irish.  ...Not that I mind, I like a nice Scottish accent.

i've got a mancunian accent, though sometimes you can tell that i've lived in cheadle, because i'll be speaking then go posher... and us mancs are very lazy with how we pronouce our words... we don't pronounce our t's or h's and like to swear.... we aren't all that bad with it though, so don't let the lazy lingo put you off coming to good ol' manchester XD really.

I had a British accent all my life.. until we moved here. Now I don't have an accent, or at least that's what I think.  It might be slightly American, but I'm not so sure.
