    Boston accent. But I try and hide it people tend to judge those with Boston accents as white trash because the yuppies don't have one

    From Texas (no I don't have a Texan accent which always freaks people out), but I live in France. So to Frenchies I have an American accent ;)

    California/Valley accent. And of course I have a little southern and a slight British, but only on certain words, like the I and A sound in words like"Hi, bye, my" (southern) "Daniel, candy, jam" (British) and so on! Not sure from where, though. I'm from Southern California (San Diego area).

    A slight hint of French when I speak English, and preppy Paris when I speak French.

    Apparently I have an accent, although I can't hear it. I was raised by people from western PA so maybe I talk like them? XD
  • I definitely have a southern accent that gets pretty heavy around family or after a couple of glasses of wine.
    I went to private school Florida but the majority of the students were from the northeast so I tried hide. My friends think it's funny that a grown woman still calls her parents "Momma and Daddy" but it's what we Southern girls do :)

    I'm from South Africa, and yes, most of us say it as I wrote it above, which is extremely embarrassing

    French Canadian! I hate it, my American husband loves it and my Mother-in-law thinks it's hilarious that I don't pronounce most of my Hs.

    Ugh, tell me about it. I'm trying very hard to pronounce all my Hs, it's a full-time job! But if I'm tired or angry, it's like Hs don't exist anymore :/

    Living around an American Army post, my English is a mixture of Germanic and American accents, topped with an exaggerated enunciation of my 'd', 't', and 'k' (if I didn't exaggerate them, I'd have a very sloppy pronunciation and would drop them altogether). Sounds quite funny, too. The best thing is, no-one can ever pinpoint where I'm from! :D
  • Born and raised in Southern Europe ( Malta ) however I have lived here in Australia for 20 years on and off sooo... My accent is Australian with a difference of some sort :)

    lets have a party.

    Where ya from? What kind of accent do you have?

    I grew up in Chemung County, NY. I would say I have a typical American accent, but I say bagel funny and so does my best friend, so I can only conclude it's an anomoly (sp?) from that specific part of the world. :-)

    I live in the Deep South now, but haven't picked up the accent.

    I'm pretty good at picking up Irish vs. Scottish vs. English, etc. But I have been following this girl from Essex on YouTube and I swore when I first heard her (before I knew she was from Essex) that she was Australian. The boyfriend knew she was British and we argued about it. I hate when he's right! lol
