Do you have an accent?

[NotoriousSMALL 1,984]

I must have a southern accent, i once moved and had people call me "country boy" even though i never told them where i was from. I never thought i did though. And ive been around people with southern accents and those who dont and still dont think i have much of one.

I apparently don't have an accent, according to others. Almost everyone I've asked just said I sound 'Normal'.

you always have an accent. You sound normal to your peers because where you live your accent will obviously be "normal".

 

Here an american accent is "normal", but an american accent isnt normal in england.

I have an English accent, seeing as I live here, but it's nothing strong nor special. So it's not "Tally ho fine chaps" or "u wot m8?" xD

I knew someone was going to say that. But when i said "Everyone i know", i mean everyone i know. And most of them are different "Nationalities". When i ask someone Persian(Where im from) they say that i dont really sound like apersian. Even when i ask someone, lets say Swedish(Current Country), They also say i sound nothing like them. Same goes with anyone else i know. So, i figured i have no accent or something? Eh, dont know. Just assuming.

Yup, I have an accent, and everyone who has ever spoken has an accent too.

If I do, it's from nowhere. Nobody would be able to tell where I was born from how I speak.

I am developing a Russian accent due to the fact that I have to speak the language all day, every day while Im living here.

That's strange. I've never developed an English accent and I've spoken it all my life.

I have a Canadian accent, so I say house, out, about, words like those a bit differently.

Well a lot of people tell me I got a little southern drawl. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I don't think I really have an accent. I might have a little bit of an Icelandic (even though I'm Icelandic, I don't seem to have the general Icelandic accent) mixed with some British (since I went to a British school during my time in Belgium). So yea... I don't really know :T

This here has changed quite a lot. I have a very very heavy Icelandic accent. I place notably heavier emphasis on T sounds, R sounds and K sounds. So you will hear me say something like "Do you rrreally liKe thaT?"

Just a slight sometime it comes out depending on the words. Like I’d pronounce vanilla like Va-nailla.

I have a fairly mild Scottish accent,
Basically enough of a Scottish accent that Americans can't understand me but really just have a sort of "posh" Glaswegian accent 

[Splashee 28,563]

I have no accent. And I am terrible at trying any accents.

wouldn't you just have the English accent of Swedish then?
you could say you have no accent, but the only reason that'd make sense, is if you only spoke in sign language

[Here No Longer 5,276]

Everyone has one.

 

I have what may be considered a Pacific Northwest accent/dialect. It sounds somewhat like this, though I pronounce some words a little differently:

Though I think there may be a slight bit of Texan mixed in.

When I attempt to speak French I have an American accent but of course I can’t really tell unless I really mess something up.

[The Kaeya Simp 13,988]

When I speak English, I have a Scottish accent (not too thick, but just enough for Americans to not be able to understand me but find my voice sexy),
In Russian, my accent seems to be a mix between Russian and English,
In Romanian, my accent is more like a Romanian crossed with English, crossed with a Scottish accent,
In French I have a fairly native accent I've heard

I default to boring "American English" accent when I switch from Swedish to English.

 

And Sweden have multiple accents, and sadly I have the standard boring one you can fall asleep to. Basically, boring either way!

I've been told that I have an accent but no one could really place it.  Guess that just comes with moving around a lot when I was younger, not really gaining one accent over another lol

[TheRockARooster 51,138]

I have an accent from what I’m told. ^^

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,457]

I have one, it is called "Boring as hell." Pretty regional. Matches me down to a tee.
