I'm so terribly British!

[Mirage]

Some people have thought I was from Germany, The Netherlands, Sweden and Norway. Not much of a surprise, though, since those languages are all close to Danish.. Also, the Danish accent when speaking English isn't really that recognizable.

Oh, believe me, it's very recognizable.

Haha xD well okay then.

Hell, I can even tell you're Danish from the way you type on this message board! :p

YES now someone needs to quote my post to get more quote-in-quote boxes.

Now, to be on topic, Minnesota kinda has a slight Canadian accent waaayyy up north. I don't, but I've heard of people doing fake-y accents (ya, sure, youbetcha, dontchaknow)

[Roogle]

I can fake different kinds of accents. You would never guess if you had no reason to suspect.

[stalpho slayer]

i speak very clearly no accent

I have no accent in English. Though one of Faris' friends tried to tell me I have a "New Brunswick-y" accent, whatever the heck that is suppose to mean. NBer's do not have an accent, unless English is not your first language.

*Everyone* has an accent, they're just usually not aware of their own.

I have a South African accent that people here always mistake for a British one. I suppose it makes sense... except I think the two accents sound completely different, a mon avis atleast.

[Rianoa]

i dont like refering to myself as british i like calling myself english it sounds better in my oppinion

[Quindiana Jones]

Where are you from?

KIKIKIKIKIKIKIKIKI: I always thought the South African accent sounded more Australian than English.

[Big D]

South African and Australian accents are different enough to my ears... but then, I can usually distinguish South African and Zimbabwean too.. I guess it's just one of those things you learn by exposure, like being able to recognise regional accents from other countries.

I want my accent back! I've been down south too long.

Me too! Except that I don't really want my old accent back. And we're probably referring to entirely different kinds of 'down south'

I moved from the north to the south of New Zealand about six years ago, when I started university, and my accent's changed markedly. For a prime example of the 'north' NZ accent, refer to Bret and Jemaine of 'Flight of the Conchords' fame...

Someone said once they like my southern accent. Like Louisiana or something. I'm from Southern California.

People in Mexico think I'm American because I speak in English, little do they know they're right.
