What accent do you have? What kind do you have? I have a mostly French accent. Quote:

canadien accent! |
Well... I come from Denmark but while speaking english I have a british accent... I was once asked by a complete stranger (from England) who had overheard me speaking english to an echange student if I came from England and one of my friends say that when I answer questions in english lessons I sound like I came straight from one of the 'Harry Ootter' films! |
I am catagorized as Pittsburghese... they have a website for my accent. It is also called "Yinzbonics" I am quite proud of my accent. It's so awesome. |
i have a West Yorkshire accent (English) |
uh.......American |
I have an Egyptian accent. My bro could talk British and American accents. We easily could learn these accents as we in Arabic can make all the sounds of the letters. |
Well I'm pure Scottish here. Although I sometimes sound American. Just depends on the day >< |
Nope I have no accent but I can easily slip to a Irish accent. Probably because I am part Irish. |
Weeell.... I'd say I have an American-British accent. 'Cause in school we learn the britishenglish,so I speak and listen to more British english,but come from America. If I want I can do a German accent,since I live there, which sounds aweful if it's too much :) The germans often can't pronounce the "th" so they make an "s" and much more... |
Uhhhh Ide have to say a Rhode Islanders accent. Basicly a New England accent with the word wicked, or as we pronounce it, Wikid used alot more. lol. |
I think I have a general american english accent. With maybe a touch of the Jersey accent. |
Um....a southern one. Not as thick as most accents though. |
Michigan. The way they talk on most American movies/t.v. for the most part. Nothing really stereotypically specific to the region except that it's not southern. |
American :( |
Midlands...not a Birmingham accent, though! |
English for me...(oxforshire, england)! |
Well I have my normal everyday american accent since I come from america but I can also pull off doing a quite well British accent (which I use alot for plays) and a good French one (I do when I'm speaking french,of course) |
I have a Texan accent! HoWdY!:cowboy: |
I'm from New Jersey so that would be what type of accent I have. It's really just a normal American Accent, I guess. http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...SeamusSock.png |
Well I'm from Australia, so I have an aussie accent. I love it when people try and speak in our accent, because usually they can't so its really funny. I can also do a British accent :D |
I've been told i have to accent. i don't really know. i'm sure if go to a idfferent contry they would ask me what accent i am speaking in. but i can also speak in a english accent. |
I have a Bostonian accent. Basically I'm from New England, but here we can't pronounce the 'ing' endings. So we usually say, "runnin'" or "chasin'". I also have part of a Brazilian accent. Yes, weird, but I love my accent. ^.^; |
I'm from the States so....yah... Not much of a accent on my part but I guess to others it's really different! ~~RQT |
Canadian accent all the way!!! |
I been told I sound Scottish or British. The thing is I am from Pennsylvania so I am not sure where these people are getting this. Perhaps Tiro is rubbing off on me? I do drink a lot more tea now...LOL |
^ :lol: Some people say I sound Scottish which is bizzare as well.... ~~RQT |
can do an American aceent and sometimes British as well. |
An Australian one, though, no where near as strong as Steve Erwin's...mainly because he is the only Aussie that actually sounds like that...lol |
Thank you all for replying. I can speak in a British accent. |
I have a New Zealand accent, which is commonly confused with an Australian accent. I can tell the difference, but some people can't. I can also imitate an English accent if i wish to. |

-- I'm supposed to have an Aussie accent. But I don't think I do o_0 most of the time I mumble a lot, so it's not like you can actually hear what I'm saying...but yes... Australian XD |
I have no idea what my accent sounds like. In Spanish, I have a Puertorican accent, which means that I exhale the S's but that's in spanish. In English, I don't think I have a spanish accent, so I think I have an american accent, with some spanish behind it. I might have to ask what type of accent I have. |
I have an english accent but its quite weird because my mum comes from Preston (North England) and my dad comes from Bristol (South England). I have more of a bristolian accent but with prestonian attributes! lol, if that made any sense well done! |
i dont have much of an accent, but i tend to slip into a british accent because i grew up in that environment..however, after a few years being back in malaysia, it's kind of transformed into something i myself cant place..but the brit is there,baby |
my friends keep telling me that i have a slight accent but i'm like no i don't because i never hear it and it's weird when i record myself on my cell and listen to it. |
well ia m scottish so i sound scottish but i have a invenesian acsent cos that is where ia m from so we say words like right enough and stuff! |
I have a southwest American accent. It's very faint, we barely have any accent at all where I live. |
Well, english is not my first language, but I guess I have an american accent. But I tend to change it depending on who I'm talking to. If I speak to a brittish person I get a very english accent all of a sudden. So I really don't know! :huh: |

I'm Portuguese but I actually have the English accent when I want to speak like that or it just comes out normally, but sometimes I have the American accent. |
I have a faint Bristolian accent (England) but most of the time I just sound like a normal, non-posh, British person but sometimes I slip into a scottish accent as I'm half scottish or an american accent if I've been talking to mates from the states. |
I've got a London-er type accent, as I was born and raised in Essex, but according to some people I sound too prim and proper to have been born here! |
An unaffected English accent. |
I have a scottish accent, but I don't actually notice it until I talk to other people or hear it when I'm recorded :blink: I love all accents though- seriously :P Especially Irish they rock. |
lol amy i love irish as well! but beoing scottish myself i love scottish accents as well! |
Your Accent! Quote:
|
Straight up Southern!!! |
For some reason I have a Brooklyn accent even though I wasn't born there and I haven't lived there since I was little; which was a while ago. |
i have a really heavy boston accent. i was born and raised in boston so it's pretty obvious i have one, but one of my friends just moved here not to long ago from ohio and makes fun of me so badly because of it, she thinks it's so insainly funny, and when i say stuff like "wicked", "hard", "are", "awsome","heard", "off" or "quarter" cuz you can really hear it when i say those words, but i really don't care, i love boston and my accent! lol |
I've got a British accent but I can also speak in an American, Irish, French and Boston accent. :yes: |

I my self speak in monatone. |
I've an English/Irish/Welsh/Scottish one. And when I'm speaking Russian, I have a Russian one. And when I'm speaking German, I have a German one.... And the same with French. I'm just way fab. |
Well I come from Hungary/Hungaria(??) and I lived in Russia for a while and then I moved to Sweden and I live there now so... I think I have a Brittish accent... all of my friends get nuts when they hear me speak Brittish when we have English lessons.... thats cinda fun :P |
I have a Mid Western accent. |
i don't know what kind of accent i have. People tell me that i sound like i'm from New York though. |
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 dont really have an accent... i wish i had a brittish accent but sadly i dont... i cant do a texan accent kinda and i can talk pidgin wich is not really an accent but more like slang ( its wat most ppl talk here in hawaii) |
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. |
ahh i have a normal American accent but seriously i would kill to have a British accent! i think theyre awesome! its so weird when people from other places say americans have an accent because i cannot imagine what it is like! lol i guys people say our language is very "flat" but i dunno...:) |
I have an Indian accent. It's so plain and boring lol. But I can talk with an American and British accent coz I have quiet a few friends and family from there so yeah... |
I dont really have any accent but its a bit ny....halla. lol |
I have an American accent...well i guess a North Western American accent but i dont think we're considered as having accents lol. |
i have a faint Texan accent, because i'm a Texan and proud of it! |
Oklahoman..Or SOuthern. Not TOO Big though. Although WHen I Scream At The TV While Watching Football..I sound l,ike a major Okie! |
I have a british accent ,but im a northener so i sound quite common compared to most of the accents that you hear in the movies from british people. |
I can speak. Period. :D 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. :D |
umm....american? I'm from da bronx!!! |
I'm british, and to myself I don't sound like I have an accent but apparently I have a Yorkshire accent! |
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 have a mix of Spanish & Chinese accent! =) |

I don't know what kind of accent I have really, Im from upstate New York and we pretty much just have an American accent |
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.... |
Well.. I guess I speak with a general American accent when I speak English although I tend to speak with an English accent when I'm really nervous or.. well, pretty much whenever I want to coz I mimic the way people talk easily. I know.. bad habit but it has its priviliges. I think I speak for all Malaysians when I say that Malaysians do not have a certain accent when they speak English as our national language is Malay. So I seriously do not get people, especially local people, who complain that I or several other people I know speak differently from how they speak. It just... irritates me so much. |
Hm...Well, I learned English at school, so I guess I have no accent...Just english, no british, russian or other accents. |
When I lived in the UK I had what was considered a 'normal:whistle:' voice. Now th@ I've moved to 'merica they say I have a Brittish accent:huh:!!! I haven't changed any!!!! :binky: |
What is normal for someone living in the same country as you, can be strange for those living in other regions. |
I have the infamous Boston accent... when I say car it comes out "cah" park = pahk, start = staht, etc. Normal around here, though ;D |
I hate to admit this, but I have a bit of a southern accent(Arkansas-ish). I hate it, too. Luckily, some days I don't sound as southern as other days. |
I've got a german accent |
I learn English at school so I'm not sure... but once my private teacher said that my accent was quite good, but she didn't say what kind of I accent I have ;) |
i have a (kinda boring) West Yorkshire accent ;) (english) |
i have a northern virginia accent. it makes a lot of difference if you visit southern virginia. i can speak with a british accent and i sometimes speak that way without meaning too. |
I have an Australian accent and it's quite easy for us to do an American or British accent since the Australian accent is a mix of both. Therefore making it hard for others to imitate it as well. |
I have a "lovely" southern missouri accent *we love our prepositions*..sometimes it goes a little southern..really bad.. |
I've got a British accent. No one else in my family does, even though they're British! *sigh* I never hear the end of it at family gatherings... |
Mostly Indian. And please, Abu from the Simpsons does not sound like and Indian!! |
Apparently Ohioans have accents... I've never noticed it, but maybe that's because I live here.... haha So I guess I must have an Ohio accent.... but I've been picking up an accent kind of from one of my friends, I'm not sure what hers is though... but it's kinda cool... :lol: Quote:
|
standard american..........though I'm going for an exchange student prohram next year and people keep telling me I'm gonna pick up the english accent while i'm there....... |
Well Im from the caribbean...jamaica to be exact but I dont really speak patoise often I speak mostly english..I have perfected the brittish and american accent though. |
Erm, American?? It's not an accent to me, but to others they say it is... |
well to pple outside of america its an accent..trust me on that one |
I've got a Western New York Accent, pretty much nothing except when we say Niagara, we pronouce it Niagra. |
Umm...American? I don't think I have one, but people with accents do think I have one. So...yeah...I do NOT have a hick accent (even though I live in Pennsylvania). |
iv got a scottish accent |
English accent, slightly countrified. Think Hagrid, dropping the 't's and stuff. What makes me angry was that when I moved schools I got picked on for it, which is kinda dumb. |
I have a west london/proper english accent |
