I was wondering what is your favourite English accent? And what accent you actually have?
I mostly speak (French-)American English. I travelled to the US when I was at university, and in Denmark, most of my friends had an American accent as well. So it just sounded logical to follow. And, at that time I wanted to contradict our teachers in France, who thought that the BBC accent was THE only one you could possibly consider having.
But now I'm getting tired with American accent, or more exactly, with bad American accents from bad non-native speakers who try to sound cool... And I find it more and more agreeable to hear RP English, even though I used to find it very posh. I also like non-standard British accents, but it's sometimes very hard to understand. I like Irish accent as well. However, I'm not familiar enough with South-African, Australian and NZ accents to have an opinion about them.
But what is yours ?
