'w' and 'e' are next to eachother. It happens. Get over yourself.

Attractive: Australian

Not Attractive: British

 

Oh...and this is the best (and most hilarious) accent attempt video I've seen:

 

EDIT: In Video 2 I lmao because there were so many "valley girls" in my classes in high school.



I like: English, other ones in the area. And Spanish, Argentenian sound nice too, although I sometimes have hard time understanding them.

Dislike: Souther accents. Ugh, I hate those. >_<

Aren't there dozens of British accents and God knows how many US accents?



I have a New Yorkish accent, even though i live in Alabama. haha

LMAO at that girls video.

I find it funny that people didn't think she had a real aussie accent. That happened to me when was in America, no-one thought I was aussie unless I pulled out the old ocker style.



I don't find any particular accent more attractive than any other. It's really all the same to me; a childhood spent traveling around the world will do that.

I do find myself in a peculiar accent situation though. Partly because of my childhood spent traveling around the world, I speak three different languages, and all of those I speak with a hint of an accent. I speak English with a little bit of a Polish accent, and Spanish and Polish with a hint of an American one. It's quite weird really.

Yep dozens, perhaps even hundreds. However, a lot of people think that we sound like Dick Van Dyke, who isn't even British and did the singlke worst British accent ever lol. I have a 'Brummie' accent, which is what Ozzy Osbourne has.

See, I thought so! It always bugs me when people say a thing like "British accent" or "American accent" because several accents within those regions sound almost nothing alike.

there aren't any i dont like, except the posh English accent. but thats mainly because the people i've met personally, who speak like that, are as hoity-toity as one can imagine >.<

i friggin love accents. all of em

OT: I like English (yes, all 5000 of them. Except Cockney), Irish, Scottish, French, South African, Russian and New Zealander accents. They're all awesome. I am indifferent to most, and I dislike really high pitched Australian accents, Southern American accents, and...that's about it.
