Non-native English speakers, can you tell the difference in Anglo accents or do we all sound the same to you?
>>
I can just recognize english, scottish, american and southern american accents
>>
It is very easy to know the difference between most strange accents like South American or Australian. But if you take the standard American English (which is complete shit to be honest - any American without a unique accent should be summarily executed) they sound just like Canadians since most of you don't even have an accent, very boring,,,

I can recognize between Ulster, Irish, Scottish, Northern and Southern english accents
>>
>>76757910
>proper british > american >strayan

I agree with this
>>
I still confuse Australian and certain British accents

Mörikän is easy to spot and the most distinct British ones
>>
>>76757898
Recognizing the provençal accent and alsatian accent should be easy though, they are quite unique. Same for québécois accent. You just didn't hear enough of it yet. The rest I reckon it's hard for a foreigner to make the difference.
>>
>>76757866
Pretty much this but with additional Irish. British one is the worst.

Like >>76757910 said we're not dumb. Only things like Scottish-Irish, (general) American-Canadian and Cockney-Australian can be hard to differentiate.
>>
>>76757843
English, Scottish, American, Southern American and Australian.

All the meme accents inside Britain sound the same, Canadian = American and I don't remember I ever heard someone from New Zealand.
>>
>>76757843
british one is the best
american one is the funniest
idk about leaf or aussie tho
>>
>>76757843
I can't understand a thing Ozzy Osbourne says. Brummie accent is too fuzzy.

>In the top 5 for accents
Thanks friend.
>>76758478
West Coast leaf is basically West Coast American I can't speak for East Coast leaf though.
>>
>>76758478
>British one
doesn't exist
>>
>>76758931
They're probably thinking of the londoner accent, it's the most common one to hear in other countries.
>>
>>76757843
I can recognize American (standard), American (southern), American (blacks), English, Scottish, Irish.
>>
I just came back from 2 weeks in Ireland, the irish accent is awful, it's incomprehensible.
>>
>>76757843

I can't, but that's probably due to the lack of practice. My skills of listening comprehension and understanding of spoken English are generally very low.

americans and canadians sound the same
all english sound the same
scots are easy to spot because they pronounce the r closer as the humans do
irish are tricky, high educated irish sound a bit american, the rest like leprechauns
aussie and kiwi sound the same

>>76757843
yeah
I can't recognize Canadian though, sounds like a generic US accent
>>
>>76758931
What type of English accent is this?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkC0r3P9z_k

Scots and USA southerners are the most identifyible
Brits have a very noticeable accent sometime too
>>
>>76757843
Sterotypically, we make fun of the "'"English"" accent by speaking Malay with hard 'R', 'S' and 'T' to mimic Anglos speaking Malay. These letters are softer in Malay. The cadence in this stereotype follows the outdated English Gentleman way of speaking (I'll say, good chap! Jolly good! Good show!) Etc.

East coast Canadians sound hilarious. They actually say aboot and hoose and shit like that. Then you can watch them cry as they claim there is no such thing as a Canadian accent.
>>
>>76760833
>East coast
>They actually say aboot and hoose and shit like that

But that's wrong you stupid Ameripigs, that's more of a prairies/western Canada thing
>>
>>76757949
how, we're very different
>>
>>76759422
>aussie and kiwi sound the same
umm no sweetie

kiwis are closer to south africans than us
>>
>>76757843
I can tell apart: southern English, northern English, Scottish, Irish, American, southern American, and Australian. It always cracks me up when I hear Game of Thrones cast speak northern English, fucking peasants.
>>
>>76757843
>Non-native English speakers, can you tell the difference in Anglo accents or do we all sound the same to you?
Not at all, you anglo fuckers bombard me with your shitty TV everywhere I go so I'm pretty good at it. I can even tell different Australian accents apart, it's that bad.
