My mrs is from Limerick. She's lost a lot of her accent and I don't even notice it now, but when other people do, she's been asked if she's American, Australian, South African but never bogtrotter.

 

Now she's picking up Welsh phrases, she is.

Despite living in Cornwall for 25 years, I've managed to retain my Northern accent, till I go north and they say I talk like a southerner for about 5 mins then straight back into it.

 

Cheers, D.

I'm told I have no accent..........but find it easy to subconsciously slip to other peoples. I have to keep a check on that.

Anyone on here who's met me probably noticed my broad dorset accent,i pronounce you as yew ,

round here most people think I'm from Bristol lol

My accent's not really from anywhere.

I grew up in Reading. My family are a mix of Welsh, Gypsy and South Londoners.

 

I don't sound like my mates from back home and, people in Swindon ask me what part of London I'm from

 

Apparently, if I start ranting about something, my accent gets stronger.

Whatever is a yam yam. Im from london originally now herts but we speak the proper english accent

they use to send bbc radio presenters to inverness to learn the queens English back in the day so even the English can't talk English ?

I live near to avonmouth now or little Poland as its now known and you can spot a pole a mile off, big lads ,crew cuts and as Kanny said a right flat head at the back, what's that all about, do there mothers give birth standing up and just let em hit the floor? Oh and I have the broadest West Country accent that you only get from growing up in a right rough council estate, I can usually even identify people around Bristol by there local accent, I speak like wurzel gumage and am proud as punch of my roots

I was there not a few hours ago on the hightstreet window down not one voice walking past was English and that is true

its the perfect model for the European dream, fill all the rented acomadation in the area with poor people with limited communication skills from all quarters of the world,so they won't moan, move every big retailers warehouses into one area, build miles of footpaths and cycle tracks to the large warehouses from the council estates near bye, because they won't need or be able to afford a car and you have modern day slavery, sold under the heading of free movement of labour, is it any wonder the libs are crying so much over brexit and trump,

I was born in dorset grew up in donny, the hartlepool, then jock land, then back to donny and in 5th house in donny now! It takes me about 2 weeks to pick up an accent and sound like Ive been there forever. I worked wi a lot of deedars last few years and have picked up a habit of calling everyone love, even blokes!
