>>
The best way to verify this is in music. Vocalists from all other English speaking nations sound like the neutral American English when they sing. This is because singing involves using proper diction. Accents disappear in song.

That and actually looking at phonetic pronunciations as written in the dictionaries.

If it's not received pronunciation it's not right.

It's just such a relaxing way of talking desu. The words flow into one another smoothly in a drawl and you don't have to contort your mouth trying to get super crisp pronunciation. The only downside is that it lowers people's perceptions of your intelligence by like two standard deviations, but that's okay because I'm dumb anyway.

Lower-middle shitholes. But I guarantee you people who speak like that are taken 100% seriously here, unless they're a whiny guinea/kike.

It's really hard but there's differences, I guess it's harder for a non native English speaker to notice than to distinguish between British and American.
Basically the difference is we speak with the front of the mouth more than the back which is why our about sounds different compared to Americans. Also generally it's more our pronunciations we use the British ones more often like left tenant instead of loo tenant, or progress, process instead of prawgress and prawcess, and in some cases shedule instead of Skedjule or mum vs mom. That's probably the easiest way to spot a Canadian he just sounds like an American trying to speak like a Brit I guess

Fairly neutral Canadian and fairly neutral American are pretty darn close except for those few places where Canadian start abooting and some other minor things.

No, your accents are very distinct the kiwi accent for me sounds closer to the Canadian one and the Australian one sounds closer to British. Those British pronunciations seem to disappear in New Zealand for some reason. I don't know, for me it's not very hard to differentiate but I never really noticed it either honestly until I really started paying attention. I like accents a lot so I spent a lot of time listening to different English accents.

Everybody has his or her own version of uhhhhh and does it all the time. For instance, Donald Trump often turns it into AAAAAND! AAAAND! while growling his voice away.

But the key is to do it as the natives do. And eeeeeeh without how relaxed and sloppy Americans typically are with their vocal equipment is a dead giveaway for a foreign accent. Plenty of people go eh, or aah, or ah, but if it's not in character for a particular accent then go for uuuuuuuh.

The idea that english accents, such as the london cockney, liverpudlian, northern, cornish etc were all american until somewhere in the 1700s is literally the same fucking inane argument as AYO THERE WUZ A PHAROAH WIV BIG LIPS DAT MEENS WE WUZ KANGS NIGGUH

That's german.

There isn't really a Swedish accent as such, we have many different, some of them incomprehensible to people from other parts of the country. Same in norway. Just a result of very spaced out living.

I don't know how to put it exactly. Even your upper class accent doesn't remind me much of your politicians. It kind of sounds like you're a transplant into Australia from a different part of the Empire, like maybe somewhere from India to South-East Asia.

Like I said, your older imitation of British, while not really British, seemed to have the most classic Australian twang to it. So I guess whatever that difference is. Who knows, I'm probably living a lie.
>>
>>75870743
It's called American English
Lots of state transplants have a "neutral" American accent
The world speaks American English not British English, and Netflix I'd quickly converting everyone else's accents.
Pretty soon it won't be uncommon for Bostonians, new Englanders, valleyfags, and every other American accent to convert to American English as well instead of their heavy slang.
It seems to be really only the Irish and American south that hasn't really had any noticeable change to vernacular change since Netflix etc. took over

I was being quite clear when I was speaking because I wanted to annunciate my words properly, my normal voice would probably be a bit faster and deeper than that. My family is at least 6 generations of anglo Australians on both sides so there's definitely no ethnic influence, interesting though

Yeah, maybe that's it. Maybe we just don't get a lot of West-Australian accents here. Your Eastern ones nail it to my ears.

Here is a great example of South Australian and New South Wales accents.

SA is a bit more 'refined' and clipped, some think that it's a bit posh and snooty. The politician who talks first has an SA accent. My accent is very similar to his, but I'm not as whiny and I have a deeper voice.
The second politician has a NSW accent, it's difficult to explain, but the vowel sounds typically are a bit stronger and prominent in the phrasing.

I've basically killed my Russian accent and replaced it with a British one.
Not a perfect job, but miles better than the American or Russian accents.
I find the Briton accent pleasing, American not so much, but the Russian accent makes me want to gouge my ears out with a rusty knife to stop the torture.

That's blatantly wrong. I'm from an island off the east coast of Canada. For a while, we've been a relatively isolated group of people. It's only recently that people are moving away or moving to us, that our accent has been changing. We sound quite unique; we're not even stereotypically "Canadian"; just different. If British and Aussie accents are new, then it stands to reason that we'd sound a lot different than Brits or aussies, considering we're more isolated.

This is my accent.

That's supposed to sound British?

>>75884992
"the midwestern accent"
It's a pretty big place. I have yet to hear anybody from there that sounds like a news anchor.

Perhaps what has happened is that they've tried to be so neutral that they've wound up with an official broadcaster's accent. It is pretty neutral as far as maybe vaugely center of northern accents go, imo.

I don't know what Argentinian sounds like, but that's sharply hispanic or latino or whatever you want to call it. It reminds me very much of how my Spanish teacher tried to get us to say letters in Spanish.

Any non-Anglo-white who speaks English as a second language and has an American accent sounds awful, to be brutally honest with you. I'd urge any European to learn English under a British accent; second-language American English does not sound good at all.

A lot of people around here have ancestors that was on the mayflower (The ship that carried Englishmen to the New world). In fact, many of our ancestors stayed in Boston for a bit and migrated here for land. So our accent is a bit of Boston, and a bit of other things.
>>
>>75886682
This is true.

Everybody who doesn't speak it natively should get a British accent. It will come out more American than you think, but will sound nice instead of awful.

Another great example of the NSW accent is the 1983 film BMX Bandits, in particular the two leading men in it. Their accents (and nearly everyone in that film, for that matter) has a strong NSW accent. I couldn't find a suitable clip of this on YouTube sorry. Their accents have much in common with Keating's, IMO.

American accents seem neutral to you because you grew up around people who spoke with the accent. If you had grown up in London you would think the British accent is the neutral accent.

My accent's a fucking hodgepodge - I've picked up a lot of accents over the years and I've kinda...made my own sound. It's dominantly american+some australian, with a slight tinge of british. No recordings, sadly.
