I Love Accents

What do you mean you love accents? Everyone has an accent unless they're mute....I have a west Irish accent, my parents have Spanish accents, my English friend has a Birmingham accent, my American friend has a Boston accent....everyone has an Accent!
To people of a foreign country I have a foreign accent, if they understand English I have an English accent. I'm not sure if people from other countries can pick up different accents of English people. I know that I can't tell the difference between a southern French person or a northern French person. And Americans all sound the same to me and I also can't tell the difference between an American or a Canadian. That's not being ignorant its because I come from a different country. Now I can tell the difference between a Northern English, Southern English and Scottish, Welsh or Irish because i'm British. But a foreign person might not. I know London and cockney, scouser or New castle accents. I'm from Oxford, when I lived there I didn't notice an accent. Now I've moved half way across the country some Oxford people sound as posh as shit.

I have a Generic American accent. 😶
True, but perhaps this group allows people to discuss their various accents and those they admire. Saves having to try to make a group for each individual accent out there that exists. 😉
