How would you personally describe your accent?
This is comic vine and as such there are many users that hail from numerous part of the globe(..I bet we even got native Antiaritans..lmao..)And every user(Given the rules) is English literate and probably can speak English as well..So my question is what does your Accent sound like when you speak in English or whatever primary language you normally converse in..
Probably a bit messed. I naturally have an accent, since Portuguese is my first language, but I also lived for a while in Glasgow (Scotland), and I certainly got some influence from the so-called Glaswegian accent.
I used to have a Filipino/Southeast Asian accent, but my accent became Americanized now since I lived in the US almost my whole life.

Where are you from?
@jumpstart55: Brazil.
@jumpstart55: Brazil.
So how does Scotland fit into the equation?
@jumpstart55: I studied there for a while. And that's where/when I got the chance to really improve my English.
Btw, how about you?

- Oh i,m a born and Raised New Yorker from the good ol US of A...
- So guess that means i have a New York accent..(I don't hear it)..But folks who aren't native New Yorkers or from the East Coast, certainly can detect it.
people tell me i sound British
Are you even from the UK?..lmao
My accent is probably a bit spotty. I've practically lived my whole life in western Kentucky. Some words like "lawyer" come out country as hell. Other words like "tire" or "wash" I've actively worked to pronounce properly.
@jumpstart55: nooo
I'm from Jamaica
I dont think I have one, but everyone says I sound like a gay southerner.
Oh **** each time I read one of your post now I'm going to hear Tennessee Williams...... "Red Devil Radio Sign"

Halfway between an sort-of-stereotypical Aussie accent and a faggoty, 1930's-American-film-sounding one that people in cities usually have.
@anna_karenina: did you pick up the slang, and typical Glaswegian words while in Glasgow, or did you pick up the actual accent?
@redxiii18881990: Mostly slang and regional words, I'd say, but some friends also noticed my accent changed significantly after my stay in Scotland.
@nerevarine_11: Yes you do.
@amendment50: what is it then?
@nerevarine_11: I have no idea but literally everyone has an accent. So it depends on where you're from.
Unless you're deaf/mute I guess.
@amendment50: so I'm from Chicago how would I sound to somebody else?
I'm a chameleon. LOL, I grew up in Massachusetts and Florida, so I can paaark tha caaar in Haaavaaard Yaaaarrrd with a Derrty Suhthin drawl. But at home all I spoke was Portuguese and Spanish. So stick me anywhere for a week and I'll pick up the local accent if I so choose. It's a survival mechanism from moving around different social circles.
@nerevarine_11: Well you probably have a Midwestern American accent then. You could probably get more specific than that though; I''d be willing to bet people with a good ear could tell that you were from Chicago just from listening to you. Most big American cities are like that.
