Bet you never heard a dutch guy speak english. I can do a german accent as well ^^

Yeah I'm sure a lot of us have heard a Dutch person speak English, "s" normally is pronounced "sh".

Not sure, I'm Leicester born & bred, but according to my flatmates I lack an accent (throw in Geordie vocabulary from my dad and the effect's even odder).

I also have this embarassing subconcious thing where my voice changes to mimic the accent of whoever I'm talking to. No idea where it comes from, and it's a real pain.

New York/Jewish, depending on how upset I am.

Well I don't think I have an accident but since if I went somewhere where other people have accents they'd probably say I'm the one with an accent, I suppose it would be this since that's my location/ethnicity. Or maybe just a general northern accent, since I don't really know what a New York/Jewish accent would sound like. I know what a Brooklyn accent would sound like, but I certainly don't have that. I don't know about my accent changing between New York and Jewish depending on my emotional state. How does that work exactly?

Well, I'm from Colorado. I guess that gives me an American accent? We say mountain differently than most though...so we're kinda distinguished, right?

Im from Colorado too and I don't think we have an accent.

Canadian....ya

USA, I wish I had a cool British accent though.

Serbian, English, and American

i'm born/raised in minnesota, usa, but every1 seems to think i have a british accent for some reason lol

I am from the deep South and I don't have an accent. Nobody around where I live has an accent, I know because I have heard people who have them.

to be fair, few ppl actually notice if they have an accent, since they are use to it

To quote Jimmy Carr "I don't have an accent. This is just what it sounds like when things are pronounced properly"
That, or a London accent. I'm going with the former.

well I'd say a mix between a hispanic(Spain, not southamerica GOD no) and British...and I can Immitate the "gansta" and the french accent very convincingly

Almost identical to Yahtzee's.

Souther Californian... the way that people who grew up there talk (not the interlopers). It's basically a monotone american accent that can devolve into mumbling when surrounded by others with the same accent. Kind of a derivitive or a milder version of a surfer accent. I still sometimes use the word "dude", but it's usually when I'm put off by someone (ie, "Dude, why the fuck did you do that?")

People out here in the midwest though, they don't notice it at all.

I'm from British Columbia, Canada, and I'm not quite sure what my accent is called. I don't think I really have one. It's not a Canadian accent, that's for sure.

Isn't this just a disguised "Where are you from?" thread?

Ah what the hell, I have a New Zealand accent, more specifically I have an accent attributed to people from the South Island of New Zealand, which (stereotypically) sounds more like an Australian, as opposed to the North Island which sounds (very stereotypically) like the whale and seagull from that "Beached as" video.

English; but not an "ordinary" accent, a northern one

Well if I speak loudly enough that the bass in my voice is constasted by my near perfect pronunciation. I am just going with an american one. A kick ass one compared to others if I speak loud enough.

Coloradin, I suppose. I don't pronounce my "t" in words like "Cyote" or "mountain." I have a great phone voice, so my accent, if I even have one, isn't dominant.

American accent with a hint of Asian.

Manly

Uhh American I guess. I would say relatively southern but not thick.

Manly

The hell kind of accent is that? XD

A British accent (well, more specifically, a Yorkshire accent).
I like it...

English, not the snooty kind, not the yorkshire/brummy kind, just plain ol' bog standard English.

Scottish

Reminds me of when I was on XBL and I was playing CoD4 and some kid said "When you speak you sound Scottish, have you ever been to Scotland before?" and I'm just thinking *facepalm*

Depends on who I'm speaking to; with people I don't know so well I tend to speak with a stereotypical English 'Received Pronunciation' accent, but I've noticed that with my mates I tend to slip into a more casual north London style voice.

Not really sure why I do this, could be cos my accent got taken the piss out of a lot when I first went to secondary school...

basic monotone with very slight southern american accent

If you record yourself speak then play it back, you REALLY notice your accent.

Back on topic: I'm from Northern Ireland, but there isn't really a 'Northern Irish' accent, it changes depending on where you grew up. Even going from one part of Belfast to another you notice a change in the accent. My parents were both from Belfast so I've sort of picked that up, but I have been told I sound Scottish, Irish and American, not quite sure where that last one comes from but oh well.

I have a fairly non specific English accent, with a hint of Manchester every now and then, but not too much thankfully.

Australian I'd suppose though. Funny cause when I was 7 I spoke with an American one. Specifically an accent that sounded like Elvis.

i have been called brittish, "wales" and at one point american... i dont have the faintest clue how they get american out of my voice... but i do have a brittish accent... how droll.

I have an American accent, midwest. It's the most plain accent I know of. I wish I had an Irish accent, but I'd rather have this than others though I guess.

Scottish. Actually thats pretty vague there. I could tell the difference between a Perth and Dundee accent, and they are less than 30 miles away.

But you american guys who think you have a neutral accent? Come on! The american twang is the most recocnisable accent on Earth (Calling it an accent even though it's a massive subset of accents). English speaking peoples from all over the world know where you are from the instant you talk within twenty meters.

Don't think you are different, chaps. The only differance is that the scottish accent is sexy!

English guy from Oxfordshire, so I sound like some kind of demented farmer.
