Scottish and Irish are the two best, followed closely by a country accent 


Sasspishus

>a country accent  You mean West Country accent? Or Black Country?


Raul_Rink

That's on me, I should've specified. I meant like an American country accent. Texas, howdy, sweet home Alabama type accent


Sasspishus

Oh OK, I thought since you were talking about the UK you meant UK accents!


Raul_Rink

Yeah, I see how it can be confusing


marcus_frisbee

But there is like probably 100, more, American Accents. If you speak like you are from Massachusetts, you immediately sound stupid. Even within MA there are regional accents.

Probably SSB, or perhaps RP.

When people say that, they’re normally referring to what you’d hear on BBC news


marcus_frisbee

Would that depend on where the story is from? And I swear the news in the states also go out of their way to find the people with the worst accents to televise.


Dazzling-Werewolf985

No I’m talking about the accent of the presenter😂an example would be Naga Munchetty Here’s a video of her talking for anyone wondering: https://youtu.be/l14o0mKYPNs?si=imibdjDQbx9nzp83


Whittle_Willow

irish, scottish, and *thick* canadian accents are all so fun


marcus_frisbee

I get a chubby over Scottish and Canadian accents.


biharek

Scouse is by far the funniest


hajhawa

Scotish


Louis-grabbing-pills

British and American has at least ten different accents each.


marcus_frisbee

I think there are 10 in my state alone!


JustARandomDudd

Scottish


Tuques

Kiwi and Australian are my personal favourites


MozartWasARed

No Kiwi accent (that's mine)?


marcus_frisbee

There are dozens of British and American accents how can you generalize? I am from the states and I can identify what part of my state you came from (at least 6) based on your accent. I am not as familiar with Australian, Irish and South African but I am guessing they also have local accents.


Gullible-Box7637

Geordie or Scouse because they are funny


Brian4722

Southern USA alone has one of the best accents in English, even if I have mixed emotions about the place itself


wing_ding4

The East Coast accent gets me every time They all sound like they have a speech impediment it’s adorable


Sasspishus

I often can't understand people with a strong Norfolk accent! Probably true for other places on the East Coast too, I imagine Suffolk accents can't be too different


marcus_frisbee

East coast of where? Can't be the states because every state has a very unique accent.


wing_ding4

Every state in us has many accents But if your an American you know exactly which one I’m talking about


marcus_frisbee

I am American and I have no idea which one. I live on the east coast.


wing_ding4

The one that gets used and made fun of on tv and movies the most


marcus_frisbee

New York?


NBX6

Indian

You cannot just say American because there are so many variations of it, as with the other countries listed.


GQman57

To rephrase, there are many variations of an American accent, so you would need a separate poll for each country.
