    That Aussie accent of yours is spot on! Never heard an American pull one off so expertly.

      With no accent, people usually mean their way of speech is very close to the formal speech which tends to be neutral

    I love the way Amy moves so fluidly between accents. That's truly a gift! As a Brit, I'm stunned at how authentic her English and Scottish varieties are. A million times better than some of the poor British accents we hear on US TV shows!

    I was born in Washington DC, shipped to Liverpool for a few years, then spent time in Texas, California and Washington state. If an accent were a person, mine would have Multiple Personality Disorder. I love all of Amy's accents but do find her "Standard English" accent very appealing indeed. When I hear that I just feel like it's THE way to speak the language.

    I have to confess, as an expat Pom living in New Zealand, that Amy's British and Antipodean accents are uncannily good. In fact perfect. She has learned the art of being "lazy" in her English speech, throwing away unwanted word endings whereas most Americans try too hard and wind up sounding like a cross between the Queen and Mary Poppins. Amy, please have a go at the Maori bro accent as in the NZ drink driving ad "Legend"(on youtube). You will be hilarious.

    Clint Eastwood's daughter, Francesca Eastwood, also has a very generic SoCal accent, though. Here in Boston, I once attended a domestic tourist of African American descent in my line of work who I immediately knew was Californian by her accent. I asked if she was indeed from California, and she confirmed that she was.

    Neither are the other states really speaking "standard English" (it is called General American, btw). Some accents just happen to be close enough to GA that people mistake their own accent as standard of some sorts, even though rather few people speak it. Mostly politicians, though usually they just sound neutral, and foreigners since it is the school book American English, not a day to day Englis.

  • @amcar08
    @amcar08 13 років тому

    @MrNividium But I think her point is that EVERYONE has an accent. It's all relative. English people, for example, certainly wouldn't think she was from nowhere as she spoke in the beginning. She's obviously North American.

  • @Lipstickforever84

    @mj0sefs0n 9 років тому +1

    Except for completely mute and silent people, everyone has an accent of some sort or another. (And even people who communicate in sign language exclusively even have an "accent" that is distinctive by region--deaf New Yorkers sign differently than deaf Southerners--so they have a different "accent" in American Sign Language than others.) And of course, even hearing New Yorkers gesticulate differently anyway!

    I'm from New England, and yes there is totally such a thing as a Californian accent. A prime example of this accent would be the Kardashians. People don't really sound like that outside of southern California.

    All Americans have accents, I love the South Carolina old time plantation owner which I think has sadly died out as everyone moves towards the general american version. For me, as a Brit, the standard british accent (RP), sounds the most accent-less, it is crisp and precise, and can be understood by anybody.

    • @CrysisOwnsHalo
      @CrysisOwnsHalo 10 років тому

      What accent does the "South Carolina old time plantation owner" sound like? I'm interested to know because I live in South Carolina.

    • @greatbritishmale
      @greatbritishmale 10 років тому +1

      No R's are pronounced, so far is faah, and very is vehi, but red is red (not ed). A y is inserted into most vowels, so there becomes they-ye, and cat is ca-yet. Think of the old hug intense Walking Dead. Traditional phase is, 'why hello there, so very nice to meet you', which would be 'wai hello the-ye, so vehi nice to meet you'. Hope that makes sense :/

But it's so funny, a couple of miles away there's a province called Cordoba where they have a quite different accent, if not truckloads different, and I have family there, and when I was a kid I thought I didn't have an accent, I just spoke Spanish, everyone else had an accent, and they made me realize how wrong I was... But I was like 5, wth these people are dumb...
