Really bad.

Which is natural since I almost never use it, aside from a few English courses I had to take by obligation.

However, It's not like I need it, anyway. I don't have any interest in talking to dumb, gun toting fat fucks. I'm only interested in reading the knowledge that european foreigners produce in English for American universities.

It makes no difference.

I once spoke with a completely Brazilian, broken accent on purpose and Anglos said "it wasn't that bad, at least I can understand you perfectly".

Then I switched to my normal accent, which is far from native but way more fluid, and they said they couldn't notice the difference.

So I guess there is no such thing as an accent when it comes to English, pretty much anything goes and the language will keep on being corrupted by massive widespread.

At least in America, French is seen as a très séduisant language that is associated with Paris, tasteful fashion, art, etc. Plus foreign, yet understandable accents make you stand out and more interesting to listen to which is why some TV commercials will use a English, Australian, or a West Euro to narrate a voice over.

I do mispronounce some words, but it improves greatly after a few days of solely speaking english (like when i travel to the us). After that, i'm able to speak almost like an american, with the stereotypical accent and all.

Speaking like an american?

France

It's alright. I do have a bit of an accent. For example, I have a hard time pronouncing things like "the", which is a typical problems for French speakers. Also sometimes I speak too fast and slurs words when I haven't practiced for a bit. My brain can think in English just fine, but my mouth doesn't follow.

So I practice with tourists or exchange students. Had a few girls tell they found my accent cute, too.

Mine is just standard american because I spent a lot of time abroad but most Czechs have this weird accent that's COMPLETELY DIFFIRENT from the Russian accent (i don't know why so many people assume every slav has a russian accent) where they don't roll their Rs but overexaggerate the correct pronounciation which sounds even worse than rolling it. Also people don't understand the "th" sound for some reason

I can often identify West Coasters by their dialect (the words they use) but not their accent. The New York, Boston, Baltimore, Tidewater, Appalachian, Southern, and New England accents are much more distinguishable from the Standard American accent in my experience.
