Posts from bebopalula in thread „World’s favorite American accent“

    I'm pretty good at identifying where accents come from around the UK but ashamed to say that I suffer from complete accent-blindness in Spanish and most other languages. It all comes down to whether or not I can understand what the speaker is saying and whilst I accept that's more likely to be in places like Mexico, Equador or Peru than Argentina I can't pin down the differences that make one person's speech comprehensible and another person's a blur.


    I'm not trying to curry favour with forum members but I think my favourite British accents come from Wales and Scotland. My own accent is more-or-less RP which is pretty boring to listen to.
