What's your accent?

Puertorricans have a particular accent and regionalisms but on top of that a lot of us use some English words/speak Spanglish because of the American influence. So we have our accent when speaking to other Latin Americans and also an accent when speaking English to Americans.

 
Syria has pretty diverse bunch of dialects and accents the coast speaks differently than the south or the north.


I come from homs we sound something like the fat guy in this clip of an old syrian comedy show:

We say a lot "z" when we speak instead of let's say pronouncing "the" if i want to speak like i do in arabic i will say "za" or sree instead of three , we do also stretch words a bit some of us do like instead of saying hello we can say hellooo or heello more regional word is "salam" turned to "salaaam".

I live in jordan were accents are a bit more "Brutish" and strong the way we syrians usually speak like the clip above is mostly homs/Damascus way of speaking we sound pretty soft compared to lets iraqis or gulf people , my accent immediately make people tell I'm syrian due to everyone speaking in "ch" and "g" like it's pronounced in "go".

I get lots of attention just cuz my accent people really love it lol like you have girls speaking way more Brutish way than me :loldog
 
I've always been a sucker for cultural differences; languages and accents are things I like to research in my free time.

Accents are a regular topic in my family table since sometimes we see some dude on the TV and Radio and wonder where they are from based on their accent. So I wonder about you guys, what's yours? Mine is this! It's kinda cool sounding although foreigners might have the worst time ever trying to understand lmao
I have no idea. Also, hello fellow konata lover
 
I always thought I had a neutral American accent, but I've had a couple people on here say I have a slight Southern accent, so I'm not even sure at this point. :loldog

standart belgian french accent.. kinda like french in the center.

My dutch accent is terrible and feel like i come from the deepest part of the countryside.

My english is more like american english than england english.
 
I’m from Brooklyn so I have very strong NYC accent but when I speak in my dads language (st.Lucian creole) I sound very much like I’m from there but with a goofy ahh Brooklyn twist

U in the city or upstate
 
People tell me I don't sound like I'm from Philadelphia. I've lived here all my life. But some people never really adopt the regional accent from where they live.
