American with British accent

I was born in America but I have taught myself to speak with a British accent. Sometimes I've actually ask for the word ask I said it like awsk or instead of can't I would say cont, and water it would sound like wutah. I've also read somethings with a British accent and omg it sounds so fancy lol.

" Awsk" and "cont" - you're doing okay with those two,you've pitched yourself a bit upscale there.Remember that there are many different accents across the U.K.,and not what many Americans call a "British" accent.

@craig7 I have heard most accents from the British Isles but I have never heard awsk and cont.

Neither as regional accents nor as Received Pronounciation, which is the allegedly-posh, affected form of the South-Eastern voice.

I'm Canadian and I am quite adept at emulating a British accent.

I can also emulate Scottish, Welsh, Irish and even Australian accents, too.

@FreddieUK Which UK accent is yours ? 😊

@bijouxbroussard It's a fairly standard English accent, near to what we call Received Pronunciation.

@Sidewinder Australian accents are notoriously difficult for those from other English-speaking countries to imitate - as those of us here in Australia always notice!

Who says water like that? I have English boyfriend and he doesn't say water like that. Ask is ask and can't is can't. Water is water.
