I have an American accent, but because of where I grew up, it tends to shift to a New England/country sort of accent every once in a while. As well as towards a German sort of thing when family gets together...it's odd, and difficult to explain.

I grew up in the states but my granmum raised me so I have a bit of british one. I tried to loose it cause people would make fun of me for it. Then Harry Potter got big and people loved my britishness! |

Well, of course to others around me, there is no accent. To others not around me, I suppose it's a mix of NY and Midwestern. I've been a NYer all my life, but outside of NYC, so the city accent isn't nearly as strong as people who grew up there (but it does have a slight influence on us, especially since most of my family is originally from there and we haven't ventured too far).
It's interesting to see the different backgrounds here.

Well, according to my English teacher (who has a Texan accent btw) I don't have any trace of accent in my English voice, very unlike other kids and teachers. Believe me, that mentioned accent could get very annoying. Imagine, you standing up and say the words w/ precision like an American, then got corrected to the wrongly pronounced and butchered Vietnamese accent. Ugh.
When I speak in my home language, I have the Hanoian accent (capital city, also known as official Vietnamese.)

I'm from the states, so I don't have an accent.
However I do come an Asian background, so sometimes
when I'm not thinking, I can produce this really strange asian/american accent, if that makes sense. =)

I'm not sure what accent i have, but people definitely notice it.
They say that by it they know i'm hispanic.
So i'm guessing, since i don't have a high voice, or neither a deep voice.
It sounds sorta cuban when i mispronounce certain words like 'tree' to 'three'
haha

Well, I live in Illinois, in the United States. I don't think I really have an accent. I don't live in Chicago or south, but I might sound different to other people.

I believe I have quite a soft Scottish accent. In Scotland, anyway. People not from Scotland would probably hear it a lot stronger than other Scottish people would.

Well according to some people I have an Aussie accent. I don't really hear it though. However that's only when speaking my native English. I can also speak some basic Japanese and I have a Japanese accent when I speak it. With other languages where I can speak the basics or pronounce the words even if I don't necessarily know what I'm saying I have a neutral accent.

Well, I sound a lot like the people here in Western MA, though I come from Long Island NY... I slur my o's more, say 'ant' instead of 'aunt' and occasionally say 'innit' for 'isn't it'. Interpret that as you will.
