American And British Accents

It all sounds the same to someone who isn't from there

Pretty sure someone with an English accent sounds different to someone with a Geordie accent. Go and look it up lol

Don't know why people say 'British' like everyone in Britain sounds the same lol

True, if you're a foreigner from London or a native from Newcastle, Liverpool or a few other places from he North your accent is trash. I think people normally think of RP

No such thing as a British accent.
There is the queens English (posh),
Cockney (east end)
Negro (hood)
Scouse (Liverpool)
Mancunian (Manchester)
Gordi (Newcastle)
Walsh (wales)
Scottish (Scotland)
Yorkshire (Sheffield/ Leeds)
And many more.

What is amazing about American accent is it's all the same. I find it easier to understand a person with an American accent than say a scouse accent, it's like trying to listen to a Rasta man speaking.

It's not all the same though. They have variations like southern, country, Boston, New York and the standard

There is no English accent.

You do realise that Newcastle where they speak with a Geordie accent is in England right?

the few differences it has to a typical American accent makes it even worse. its like a roadman version of an American accent.

tbh, i hate any accent that isn't a standard London accent. i don't mean the cockney chav nonsense.

What about the Mancunian accent it's decent.

Sometimes it's hard to understand Londoners, they speak really fast especially when they have the cockney accent. My ears are not used to it.

I think some British accents are really nice, but British people seem to open their mouths wide when they're talking, why is that lol
