[QUOTE="Chesterton, post: 76027529, member: 225709"] I think I agree with you on this. I once started watching a video. It had an English title but a guy with a thick Welsh accent was speaking Welsh (or so I thought). It was a video about how to make something, so I continued watching for the visual information. I listened to him for about two full minutes before I realized he was actually speaking English. I could make out one word every now and then, but it was about 99% unintelligible to me. I have another question. The majority of Americans, to my ear, have no accent. They sound "plain", or normal. My best guess is that they do have an accent, but I don't hear it because it sounds like my own. (?) Is this true of you? Are there people who sound like they have no accent? [/QUOTE]
