    I really love northern English accents....Irish, Scottish. But Im in America....I dont really have an accent as far as americans go. It's not northern, its not southern.....I guess I sound more like they do out in cali. No real accent one way or the other...I dunno, maybe someone would disagree with that. I also love the way russians talk when they speak english......it sounds really cool. Germans too for that matter. The only real accent I have a hard time listening to is a real southern one...no offense please anyone:& It rails on my nerves for some reason. Actually when I am in the south I am told I sound like a Yanky (northerner) and when Im up north like in NY Im told that I sound like a southerner. I guess Im somewhere in the middle.....hehe. But if I could choose, I would want to sound like someone from liverpool. Their accent sounds the most beautfiul to me.:)
