    I´m icelandic, no accent.

    I would say you have an Icelandic accent then. As long as you're from somewhere with it's own unique dialect, you have an accent. It would be like saying that the British don't have an accent, because if you were from there, you all sound the same, but a Canadian would have an accent because s/he would sound different, or vice versa.

    I'm Canadian, and I have a Canadian accent (Toronto-ish, to be more precise), but to me, I don't have an accent. To you, I sound very different, so I do have an accent.

    Very true as I do not think I have an accent until I travel and people ask me where I am from and then inform me that I have a southern accent.

    My accent is mostly eastern PA (near philly) - which is where I am from. And I have a little of this dialect that I am not even sure where it's from that I picked up from my mom and I am sure she got from my grandma (I have to ask her where it's from) but only on some words. :laugh: Everyone teases me when those words come out.

    I live in Bucks county, we are almost neighbors.


    I live just outside Philly, hello neighbors!!!!

    I'm a Brit, so I have a good old Englisg accent

    I'm half German, half American. Grew up in Germany until I was 12, so my dad taught me English. He's from Michigan. I speak very properly and neutral, except when I drink or am tired...then I have that annoying Midwest twang. Ugh!

    :wink: true. Here in south Iceland we speak soft and flat icelandic but on the north side of the country they speak harsh strong icelandic. Something I never think about. But when speaking english I sound flat and people can´t tell where I´m from even though we are tought oxford english :smile: I just have to be different from everybody else

    I'm currently living in France, so when I speak French I have an accent. People say it's charming to have an American accent in French, so I definitely play it up sometimes!!

    I am from Western Massachusetts- so I actually do not have an accent, lol. No funny Middle of the state (Worcester area) accent, and definitely not a Bah-stan (boston) accent.

    But I tend to pick up accents easily- so depending on who I am with, I start sounding like them.

    I'd have to say English (yes yes I know there is no such thing, let me explain). I was born in the Netherlands, but I leaned english from my Welsh mum who went to boarding school in England so her accent (and consequently mine) is every neutral.
    I've had English people tell me I've got a BBC-accent or a West London accent. Either is fine with me, I'm just really glad I don't have a Dutch accent :p
