I try to say everything the way it is supposed to be said, regardless of accent--except for on those frequent days when I wake up and everything that comes out of my mouth sounds Irish! When it's worse, it sounds Scottish, and some days, I can't get anything but German out of my mouth. It gets a bit annoying when both your parents only speak Spanish or French!!

I have a Scottish accent. My friends say it is quite posh.

I have an awesomeness boston accent!!!! I love it!!!!  you may know it as a new england accent. For people who have no idea what im takin about a boston accent is when you dont say r's in words like car so its pronounced like cahh. Myne isnt that strong. Besides that I can do a killer english accent!

I have a thick...and I mean THICK...Chicago accent. That typically means we stretch our vowels out a LOT and sound rather nasally  For example when I say Chicago it comes out "Chicaaaaaahhhhgo"  I love it though, and I barely notice it unless I'm down at school, where the accents are much more southern...then people are constantly bringing it to my attention

I'm from the western(ish) US, so I don't think I have much of an accent. Although when people point out something that I say, I usally blame it on my 'Hillbilly Accent.'  I say words like ain't, dunno, and gonna instead of don't know and going to, yer instead of you're, shoulda, woulda... and I don't pronounce t's in words like kitten, button and mountain. So they come out like kih-en, buh-en, and moun-en.

I live in the Netherlands, and people in the Netherlands... Well, have terrible accents when speaking English. But I try to sound as much non-dutch as possible, and so far it's working pretty well. |

My Swedish accent sounds like a frog when I talk rapid, and my English is okay... I'm trying really hard to make it sound better though.

According to a lot of people, I have a half-british, half-Aussie accent. Although, my friend who comes from England, says I sound more Aussie.

I had never thought that I had an accent, but now that I'm at college, several people have commented on it. When I was in Florida, someone asked me if I was from Alabama (quite the insult). Dad always told me I had a Midwest accent because I would say certain words funny.
However, now when I hear myself, there is no denying that Arkansas drawl. Its not quite a full-on Mississippi Southern accent, but it is distinctly Southern.
Its fun to say smart things in a Southern accent. |

I have a pretty strong Yorkshire accent, I never really thought I had too strong an accent until I came to university and i had to repeat things several times, it was as if I was speaking a different language...and I've only moved to the midlands, like an hour away from my hometown! lol. Apparently my accent is very thick lol but I love it, it makes me, me. so what the hell, right? lol

American- East Coast- Philadelphian (kind-of) accent. Compared to many other people our area of the U.S. I don't have an accent- but I pronounce a few things differently. Like orange, I pronounce arange. And while I don't do it, other people in my area pronounce water as wooder... it's quite funny.

Sounds pretty interesting to me. Lol. Not to sound stalker-ish or anything. Anyway, the word "german" simply caught my eye. Just nothing--I'm pretty much an enthusiast to German stuff. Quote:
