    I have a mix of a Connecticut and Boston accent.
    I lean more to a Connecticut one, though. :tehe:

    I've moved around the world and I pick up different languages as I live in different places.
    Sometimes I can have an Italian accent to my English, I can have a British, Russian, Bulgarian, Tennessee, Californian, or French accents to my American English. I can pretend to be from different parts of the world and it's quite fun.
    When I moved to the U.S. for the third time I had a British accent since the last place I lived was London. Now I can speak perfect Floridian.

    I'm English, from Suffolk. Suffolk people are known to sound like farmers, but people I know mostly don't sound like that. The accent here might be a mix with an Essex accent cos it's not far from where I live, I'm kind of on the edge of Suffolk...

    Anyway...xD
    Some people say that I sound quite posh, but other people think I sound 'normal'. It depends on who I'm talking to. Part of my other family from the Midlands think I am cos I say 'arr' and stuff, when they say 'ah' like 'barth' and 'bath'

    Ohh...and I have to add! I lovee...
    Irish accents.
    Scottish accents. (Especially after watching Trainspotting! Ewan McGregor in that film :D)
    And atm I'm starting love the Liverpool one as well. In Love

    I don't really know many American accents, but from what I've heard I like them. I can't really tell the difference to be honest, unless it's really obvious.

    I have a Californian accent, and I tend to talk softly and pronounce my words carefully and properly...people say I sound weird, but that's just how I talk.

    I can't hear an accent on me at all. I come from South Wales, Cardiff to be exact. I know I don't have the stereotypical Caaardiff accent. My blodge teacher said it sounded very 'North Cardiff' so apparently I sound kind of ...posh. I seriosly don't mean to, but I like to pronounce my words properly :)

    Well, I'm English, but I'm not quite sure how describe my accent. I come from just outside London but theres not much regional accent really... I usually talk quite smartly, like my pronounciation of words and stuff. I suppose proper english, maybe?
    It's better to call it Received Pronunciation (or 'BBC English')
    There's no such thing as 'proper English' (:
    Ahaaa, yes, that's the one.
    Probably pretty close to that, but not quite so much. x]

    I have a typical New Zealand accent :file:
    Which I hate.

    Although, when I get of the phone from my relatives in Ireland, I apparently get my irish accent back :tehe:

    Which I like way better than my NZ accent.

    I'm straight out of Ohio. xD
    I'm pretty sure I don't have an accent.
    When I get angry and yell I tend to catch a Jersey accent, but other than that, the only accents I have are the ones I impersonate.

    I'm from South England, so it's slightly farmer-like. Y'know, "Hamp-shiire", but mixed in with a bit of "BBC English". It's alright, but I pick up on accents super-quickly. I once spent a week camping with three Australians. :cheese:
    I apparently sounded like I was from Melbourne for days.

    I'm from South England, I know exactly what you mean. xD
    When I meet people who aren't from 'farmerland' I have loads of fun playing up the accent.

    I once met a Scottish girl on holiday and we were best friends for the two weeks I was there and I caught her accent. xD
    My dad got really pissed off with me and I tried really hard to not sound Scottish but I couldn't. >.<

    I hail from Cananda but then my parents and I moved to America about 5 years ago.

    It's so weird. After living there for 10 years, I still have a slight accent. I say "About" and "Sorry" weird, apparently.

    And I've been whoring Brits and I think I've been watching too many Youtube Vids, but I tend to say certain things in a British Accent.

    And, being Canadian, I can say hoser. So. I like it. Plus, I say "eh" alot just to piss my friends off when they say, "Hey! Lilly! Say something I Canadian!!11!!"

    I lived in Wales for a bit so I tend to pronounce some vowels a bit weirdly and I moved to Dorset, so my A's and stuff come out rurally. If that makes sense. . .?

    I have a Torontonian accent with a mix of a subdued russian accent. And I don't pronounce some of my words fully, I leave the endings soft and kinda washed out.

    I'm from the west coast, so I really don't have an accent... most of the time.

    One day in history, I was ranting about something and my friend interupted me and asked if I had ever noticed the southern twang to my voice when I was angry or talked to fast. From then on I noticed it. I have no clue why I talk like that, but I do and can't help it.

    I can also pick up accents unconciously if I'm around someone with one. Like when I'm around my Italian family, I'll pick up an accent that's somewhat difficult to drop! Or when I watch Brittish Television. It'l pretty bizzare.

    lol my dad does the same thing. He adopts an accent for whoever he is talking to, and I don't know if hes trying to help them understand his very propper English or of he doesn't realize it.

    I'm from Australia, but the area I live in we have a few bogans- okay more than a few, but surprisingly enough myself and my friends (except for one) don't have that kind of accent going on. We just sound normal in my opinion. :shifty Though I've been told I mumble and speak too fast at the same time so it's hard to understand what I'm rattling on about at times. For example, I'llwalkaroun'schoolspeakin'likethisuntilI'mtoldofforitbymyfriends. :tehe:

    I'm from Texas...I really don't have an accent from what I've been told from other people from different parts of the country when I call them.
    However, I can't pronouce my 'ing' words without sounding like a hick
