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

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

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 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!  | |

I thought I was the only one that did that!!!! I feel bad some times because I know the person that I am talking to is probably thinking I am making fun of them but I really can’t help it, I just pick up on there accent easily and form it to myself. But normally I have an American accent but it is a mix still because I will say some sentences really southern and I am not, and some will be a little valley, or spanish....but whatever…..

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!

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 
I love all accents though- seriously  Especially Irish they rock. | |

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
