I’d say I have an American accent if a foreigner were to talk to me, but it’s not the stereotypical American accent.
There’s multiple American accents
East Coast, Southern, Midwest, West Coast (apparently)
Also, I don’t understand how we changed accents from England because this country is of English descent, most people had a British accent, and their kids would too.
How did we get so far away from it
Add heavy Midwestern on here and we have a deal
Going British accent all the way here
When I was in the UK it’s like they are speaking a different language
I have family from England so I can understand it
I’m just going with American because I am 'MURICAN
We’re talking in general language. Not like southern. So that’s California, Florida, New York.
We know
We’re just saying there’s different accents on top of the generalized American accent

idk my traits are weird, i’m asian / european and yet I have probably the most american accent here lmao
I actually prefer Australian but ok
I can do both but I think my British accent is better IMO, and a British Accent sounds more interesting, if that makes sense
I’m not a native English speaker but as I’m living in the UK so I have more of a British accent
And British sounds posher (at least most British accents)
