    My accent is northern one (North West) But I don't think i really have an accent because i'm from Blackpool and not places like Manchester and Liverpool which have strong well recognized accents! But I do sound a bit southern sometimes because of my family, they are all southerners and then i picked up the northern accent because of living up north But yeah I don't really think I have an accent just certain words sound a bit different My favorite accent is either Mancunian or American/Canadian

    I was born in Bedfordshire, which is in East Anglia and rather near London, but grew up in the Midlands in Northamptonshire. I think I probably have more of a normal London-ish accent though. I speak very British English and don't like using slang. I pronounce water correctly and stuff.

    I don't know what to make of my accent. Mostly because I don't notice it. I've lived in the same place for too long and all the people I know have similar accents and most of the television I watch is based down here, so I just can't distinguish it. I guess in that respect I wish it was more apparent, though I bet if I ventured up North or something I'd start noticing it every day. My Northern friend said my accent was strange. Although I have had Americans say they love it. I'll have to get back to you on whether I like it or not.

    I don't know what my favourite accent is.

    I don't really think I have an accent. Apparently, my voice changes from posh (;l) to just normal. I don't really have the strong accent you would hear in my area which I'm kind of releaved about.

    I'm from London, we don't have a distinctive accent rly

    I guess I speak quite properly, but my accent rapidly changes to do with who I'm talking to or what environment I'm in.

    I do actually have a bit of a problem with dropping my t's
    and saying H like haich

    I love bristol accents
    and zee french of course

    To everyone saying they don't have an accent, of course you do, an American will turn around and say 'I sound normal, I don't think I have an accent', but, of course they do to US, a northerner will have an accent/dialect, whatever you want to call it, and so do I and the rest of the southerners. Just because you grow up in a certain place, have lived there all your life, doesn't mean you do not sound different to people from other places, obviously to you, that is the norm, but for me and others, you do not sound 'normal'. I speak with a London dialect, just like those of you from Scotland, Blackpool, Birmingham and everyone else speak with a dialect originating from where you are from.
