Answer 1

Yeah my accent is less strong now atleast when I´m more used to speak in English. But you can clearly hear for the most of the time that I´m Swedish when I speak.

Answer 3

Some people I know on the East Coast tell me that I have a noticeable California/Los Angeles accent, but it's hard to describe. 

Answer 4

I was born in Pennsylvania outside of Philadelphia in a rural area so I guess my accent is rural farm boy/Philly slang/Pennsylvania Dutch. "Yo!! I just bought me a Folksvagon wit my Weeza card."

Yes, Germans have a hard time pronouncing a V.

My grandfather from Germany would pronounce violin as "fiolin" or "wiolin". :-)

Yep. Fortunately, I don't have the accent but a few of my acquaintances have the "Dutchie" accent and we constantly make fun of them. They say things like zink for sink, ruff for roof, boughten for bought, etc.

Answer 6

Well, if I let my own accent go as it wants, it can be pretty strong.

If I'm meeting someone new or working, I have no regionalism.

If I'm tired, ye cain't get no more Southern then me.

Answer 7

Some people here in Arizona can tell that I have an accent that stems from the Mid-Atlantic States.

Answer 8

I'm an Australian. Of course I have an accent. It's not too broad but it's most definitely there.

I did a breakfast program on community radio for a couple of years and cleaned up the accent as much as I could. That was my bullshit voice. It was probably neutral.

Answer 9

Born and Raised In The South Land

Answer 10

accent? what accent? I have no accent? everyone else has the accent... 

Na, I don't think I have an accent really, if I spend much time around the southern accent, I can fake then listen to it, and sometimes fake it very very well.

Though when I went north, some realized some of my word choices were more southern words that they weren't used to hearing.
