Im from Newfoundland we speak newfienese....lol (english) apparently we have a unique slang.
Um, yeah, that would be fair to say. :happy: That and you speak so fast, it can be a little hard to understand. Of course, that also depends on which part your from. I newfies. Best kind.
Me, I have an East coast Canadian accent as well, not NFLD though. There are some pretty thick accents around here, but mine is pretty mild, when I travel people dont pick up on it very often. I was on a course in Manitoba and the Americans on the course thought the Manitobans (?) had a stranger accent than I did.
My favorite - hard to narrow down, British, Irish, Australian to name a few.0 -

My great uncle was a newfie. I loved his accent.0 -
I'm from Glasgow so have a Scottish accent.0

Trying as hard as I can to sound South East British, but people often spot my French origin0

East English with a hint of Danish.
Is that East-Anglian English or SE aka Esturian English?
As Danish uses the glottal stop you'd think the Esturian English would be able to master Danish, but alas the struggle enough with their mother tongue :laugh:
I actually love the way Danes speak English ... so distinct from Swedes or Norwegians... in fact it almost sounds a bit like Afrikaans.
I also love the way the Dutch speak English and their over-use of the gerund :bigsmile:0 -
My accent I would describe as generic English. I was born in the South East but brought up just outside Liverpool. The broader Southern tones I appear to have dropped but even after 20 odd years I don't sound like a Scouser (they just think I'm posh!)0

^ LOL to that, I don't think I really have an accent even though I am from NJ0 -
I don't really have one.. but a small Boston accent probably. My husband has a strong Boston accent. No "R"s ... not sure how he got one.. we grew up in the same town in Northern Mass
I live in RI and and everyone laughs at me having no R when I talk apparently..lol And when Im mad the Italian comes out. My husbands makes fun of me when we are arguing saying I sound like I belong on the Sopranos. Makes for a very hard argument...lol0 -
Mais I talk like dat cajun down da by-yoo!
IF ANY OF YOU HAS SEEN CAJUN JUSTICE, please we're not all dumb *kitten* down here and more than half of our community doesn't even like the show! It's not all voodoo and travel by boat everywhere.
Though the further south west you go from New Orleans the more authentic the cajun accent and food really is!0 -
I was raised in a family where English was not the first language. Yes, I am from PA. My mother spoke French and German and my father Scottish Gaelic. I paid over $2,000 to soften that Scottish accent, but once in a while, especially when I am angry, it crops up.0

I'm from Michigan so apparently I have a mid-western accent. I'm not sure, though...I don't hear it :P
I think Mexican accents are incredibly sexy. Also, British. And Australian. And Irish. Scottish. Spanish. You know what, just throw in almost every country in western Europe and Central/South America. Yeah, that'll about do it.0 -
Non-descript U.S. accent. I spent the first 9 years of my life in Washington State, where no known accent prevails. Grew up on the East Coast. However, I can pick up and mimic accents pretty well.0
-
I guess you could say I have a "redneck" accent, being from northeast Indiana. However, I spent a lot of my childhood on the UP of Michigan, and when I would come home, people would comment on my "Yooper" accent.0

I'm an Aussie. So Australian.
But I have lived in NC USA for almost 4 years and I pick up a southern accent here and there sometimes. It's weird.0 -

A mix of South East London and Devon, with a slight touch of Australian0
