What accent do you have?

Post Reply New Topic

Southern accent, after spending my last 12 years in North Carolina. The weird thing is that French is my first language, so when I speak in French I speak like it's the only language I've ever spoken, but then when I speak English I change back so it sounds like I only ever spoke English. Scares the crap out of everyone.

Russian. but it's kind of strange because whether I have an accent or not depends on the situation. Sometimes I talk to people and don't hear myself having an accent, as well as other people saying that I don't have an accent, but other times the accent is pretty distinct.

Many people around where I live say I don't really sound like I'm from the South

None!

My accent was likely to be purely Kentish when I was younger (I actually got called "posh" when I was in primary school, which I could never understand). It's most likely picked up a few traces of other accents here and there - most probably some aspects of the Suffolk accent. Although now I think about it, I have occasionally noticed some of my pronunciations have altered themselves slightly, and then corrected them to what I think they should be.

western washington south puget-sounder, by way of aspergers [bill gates-ish] whine. but down an octave and even more monotonic.

German-like. I think it's because of AS, because we don't get accent by genes (I have German ancestry) but by surrounding It makes me more rude than I am.
And I live with girl who speaks with American-like accent. She's almost deaf.

People look surprised when we say We are both Polish!

Some people have accused me of being Scandinavian, I even got Scottish a couple of times.

I've never lived outside North America.

In English, I speak with a mixture of Mexican, American, English and Scottish accents.

I don't really know. I guess I have a Canadian accent if there is such a thing. But not a Newfoundland accent, or Toronto, those are the only places that I've ever noticed an accent in Canada.

Canadians have an accent. I could tell Dashan was Canadian right away and he was speaking Mandarin.

I wouldn't know how to describe the accent if my life depended on it though.

i'm not sure if i have an accent but my mom and dad do. especially my father as he's from tha countray, ya know where if they got a problem with a animal then then shoooot it! thas what ya do!
