Do you have an accent?
Or do you see everyone else as having an accent and not you?

I probably have an accent, hehe ... but I can't hear myself speaking it ![]()
The people around me have accents, such as Penkridge and Wolvo..but I don't think I have one.
When I speak to friends, i have slight Antwerp dialect and accent. Almost all dutch speakers have some kind of dialect, and sure they have local accent. When I'm in front of class or anything, I speak common Dutch in the Flemish way.

Gee, I wish I had an accent... All I have is a speech defect, when it comes to speaking. :S
I sure have an accent and I am proud on it ... I never really bothered to speak proper dutch

If people from other parts of the country would hear me speak they would most definately say that i have the Gothenburg accent.. but i wouldn't, cause i only live close to the city, and people who live IN the city speak much more rough..
So i know that i have an accent, i just don't know which one ![]()
Probably some west coast mix... :S

I suppose I've got an accent, sort of a thick sounding Yorkshire accent.

For German folks I have a "Ruhrpott" (colloquial term for the Ruhr Area) accent, while an American friend told me on the phone that I sounded German. ![]()
Actually, I like to hear "Ruhrpott" German as well as North German accents, while South German often contains unfamiliar terms, and, in extreme cases, I find it hard to understand.
everyone always tells me that I have an accent. Even the people I live around - I don't really know what they mean, only that perhaps I say words differently to them because I like the way they sound better. Although I know people like Keira Knightly and such have the same accent as me.

I don't have an accent in my native language. But in other languages I have, as most of the foreigners
everybody has an accent
I have a bit of everything. Mancunian, a very faint Midlands, Scots-Irish... I seem to pick up accents if I've been in a particular area for some time.
i have a "country" Irish accent and proud of it:D

I'm aware of the fact that I have an accent. Something like south-east England (Essex), but apparently I sound "posh" to other people from the same region. I don't know why that is.

I dont' really have an accent, but I can speak with the accent that is usual in Berlin, if I want to do so. It is not a very appreciated one. It would rather be seen as a lack of education.
hBut tere are a few words which don't exist in the other parts of Germany or have another meaning there, which can be kind of confusing, and of course I use the "right" words, maybe they will "learn" it^^.

It's funny because here in austria you only have to go a few miles somewhere and you here people speaking with a completely different accent as yours. That's fun!
I'm just glad that my accent sounds good (the others said that...) ![]()

An accent no but I do speak the Carelian dialect so even after 8 years of living in the western part of the country it is very easy for people to tell where I'm originally from.

When speaking English I use a pretty standard, "BBC newsreader" kind of accent.


















I think we all have an accent of some sort wherever we are from. Maybe for the local people we do not have one but for people from another country they will detect some kind of an accent as we hear one from someone from another country.
