    People say I talk like a Scouser, but I'm from North Wales.
    If a word has a h at the beginning, it disappears when I say it so have and has turn into 'ave and 'as, I thought that was normal until one of my friends laughed when I said Hull. :grr:
    I live in Yorkshire, so I suppose a little of their accent has been thrown into mine.
    So yeah, I have no idea. :D

    I don't have an accent. :mrgreen:
    Nah, I'm... London-ish... yeah.
    Mine kinda fluctuates, but it's pretty typical, depending. I think. I really don't have an accent. :-)

    I don't think I have an accent, but people "from away" always correct my grammar and tell me I'm saying it wrong. For example, on PEI..:
    "Up west" means the western end of the island.
    "Out west" means going to one of the western provinces.
    "From away" means you didn't grow up on PEI and have no idea what I'm talking about...

    Then there's the whole "slippy" thing, which I got into a big argument over with a kid from LV. He kept telling me it was "slippery", and I told him to go and try to find someone on PEI who doesn't say "slippy"...

    Well I can't really the difference in the Aussie accents, but i do know that the Tazzie's tent to speak more 'Proper' and the Queenslanders are very layed-back in their pronounciation.
    I'm from Victoria and i'm told we speak 'ocka' which means aussie slang.

    I have a London accent. I do love having a British accent. I'm really proud of it :tehe:

    But when I'm on the phone to my grandma or something my accent goes really really Indian. And when I come back from holiday there my accent goes a tiny bit Indian for a while.

    I have a Texan accent because I've lived here almost all my life. I talk really slowly and drag out my vowels as a result. :tehe:

    I don't really have an accent, but I've always wished I had one...they can be so cool.
    I especially love British, German, Russian, and Australian accents.

    I'm from Chicago and I didn't think I talked in a Chicagoan accent until one of my friends pointed it out. She's from New York, so obviously I'll sound a little funny to her. But, I do say a few words wierdly like the word palm. I don't what it is, but everytime I say palm, my friends start laughing.

    One of my other friends can do like, any accent really well. And she'll just slip in and out of accents just randomly, and it's happened for awhile, so I just ignore it now :)
