So I'm from the USA...I have an American accent. And it's New-Englandish haha; I don't know how to explain.
I do have fun faking a British accent though...even if I fail at it. |

Because I'm from Liverpool, like the Wombats xD
But my accent isn't too extreme, really, although I do know a looot of people who's is.
And I kind of pick up on peoples accents wherever I go, so when I'm in London, I start talking Cockney, and I was in Leed's yesterday, so I started talking, eh, I don't know. Whatever accent they have in Leed's!
But I have a pretty good American accent. We're doing Hairspray in drama xD

Much to my, and I'm sure to Foxxie's disappointment as well I've completely lost my Minnesotan accent. So depressing.

i'm English so an English accent but i'm from an area of England which doesnt have a distinct accent unlike for example Cockneys (from London), Brummies (from Birmingham), Stokies (from Stoke), Scousers (from Liverpool) all have a distinct twang to their dialect, but my area of Staffordshire doesnt seem to for some reason
p.s. the bracketed areas were for any Americans or Canadians who dont know what Cockneys, Stokies, Scousers or Brummies were.

I don't really have an accent. I grew up the first 8 years of my life in New York but never got that accent and when I moved to Florida where I have lived for 12 years now I always though Southern accents sounded barbaric and made it a point to never speak like that so I really don't have an accent.

I'm Irish but I speak with a hint of an American accent! All my friends say I have a real American accent! Probably from watching too much American shows!

I'm...not sure I really have an accent. xD I'm from the USA and where I live we don't really have very distinct, strong accents or anything like that. Except may be a little bit of a country accent in some people. So I guess I might have a little bit of a country accent sometimes. xD I do enjoy faking other accents though.

I'm not sure if I've posted here before  Well anyway, I have a proper Full on English Accent. I'm from Hampshire so I may have a twinge of the west country accent but my friends make fun of me because I'm too posh compared to them!! Apparently it's more Kensington then West Country!

I'm American! I have a normal American accent with south MD mixed in. Especially when I say my 'o's'. They're like elongated. Like 'home' and 'bone' and such. My friends said it sounded English once.. But I was like 'Nahh'.
And I also have a little New English accent.. Like if I were to say 'accent'... It would sound weird... I don't know how I'd describe it... But, yup.

As I'm not European or American, I don't know how I would call my accent. I'm from a country from Asia whose official language is both English & *toot*, so I don't really know, lol. But, I guess that whenever I speak English, I follow the standard way of pronouncing the words. (standard--the internationally approved ones, whatever, xp.) Although, I like playing with British & American accents.

Oh,I dunno...
I'm absolutely in LOVE with British accent,but,unfortunately,I don't speak that way.
I prefer that,but...Ugh,I guess my accent is similar to American.
It's easier to talk.

^ I agree.. American is easier to talk with for foreigners, but I won't lose hope 
I have an American accent (mixed up with Indian eew!), but I'm learning the English one yeah I know it's ridiculous but I do it any ways...

I do not have much of an accent. I am from Maine but do not have the strong accent. When I was growing up in Hawai'i (until I was 5), our neighbors were Texan. Every once in awhile, if I am particularly tired, a Y'all might slip out. I do however tend to use what I call Mainerisms......sayings that only Maine people would use. For example, feeling like you are up to your neck in clam flats (meaning overwhelmed).
