What is your favorite state or regional accent?
    #22062418 - 08/08/15 12:01 PM (8 years, 5 months ago)

Some people like a Midwest accent, some like southern. Most people prefer a Louisiana accent, just a little bit of Cajun. In general new York accents are seen as the ugliest. Canadian accents are interesting. What is your favorite and least favorite?

I usually enjoy hearing any accent, I don't hate any really, I even think new york and boston accents are charming in their own way.

I like upperclass southern, like frank underwood from House of Cards, but I don't think I ever heard it in the wild.

The Baltimore (Balmer) accent is pretty horrendous.

What about English accents? Unlike Canadian there is a lot of variation.

There isn't really a single unified Canadian accent. The accents from Eastern Canada are pretty far off from everything else for example.

I love newfoundland accents, it reminds me of an Irish accent a bit, oddly enough.


As far as the states, I think most younger generations are getting to be very non-regional, with exception to the south. I think new jersey gets a bad rap, and most people are actually thinking of NY accents when they say NJ.
I would say Clerks is the most accurate example of a typical accent in NJ. My parents are from there and sound non-regional, except for my mom who will sometimes let her vowels(particularly A's) slip when she's really mad.


Southern NJ sounds like Philly, which is NOTHING like the non-rhotic accents of new england and if anything sounds midatlantic and baltimore-ish, but most people sound non-regional, except for a few small quirks that usually go by unnoticed. Most people in Eastern PA in general, sound very Non-regional, including myself, but they tend to elongate their vowels(O's usually) but in a weird way. Western PA is all kinds of weird, and starts getting to be a bit Appalachian in sound.


As far as accents in the states that I like, I like some Southern Accents, for sure. Not all, but a decent amount. I also like mid-western accents, it helps that the people are usually kind and have a pretty "gentle/mild" way of speech.

I have the strongest southern accent you will ever hear. I personally love English accents though. While i'm busy marveling their accents, they are marveling mine. LOL

I'll actually post what I sound like if people point me in the right direction on a program to use.

What about Australian accents? They are fairly thick wouldn't you say? Doesn't anyone else think Louisiana accent is pretty? Most will say new York, jersey and especially Brooklyn accent sounds the worst. They sound like hoodlums.

Canada is like one big state with various cities.

A haitian accent is not so bad. What about Chinese accents? Does California have an accent or are they just neutral kind of weak as water?

I met a guy once from Newfoundland. I asked him what part of Ireland he was from.

A London accent is not too bad. Its not thick and stupid sounding like a cockney accent.

https://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20101227070043AAbnOiG

Why do so many say the New York Accent is "Ugly" or the Ugliest accent in world? is true? also, why are many new yorkers blamed for being the rudest people in world?

I have trouble understanding people from Britain.  Although I must say I treat all British accents as coming from one big place.  I can't tell them  apart, I just know that I can't understand (nor stand) them.
