Britain + West Britain: West Country, Glasgow Scots, Scouse, Essex, Brummie, Limerick

Other countries: America (couldn't name specific regional ones but they are all a bit irritating), India, Sweden (alot of them make a weird E sound on certain words that sounds horrible), Southern Chinese

I would say the worst is Scouse tbqh, truly an ungodly abomination of an accent/dialect

also the USA is rightful clay of Great Britain :^)
>>
>>59898970

>>
>>59898169

>>

>>

>>
>>59898169

Scouse is by far the worst followed by London Chav / MLE.

>>59899137
Fuck you 1776 best year of my life
>>
>all these people saying Scottish is bad
It's not that bad ;-;
>inb4 someone posts that Jeremy Kyle clip or clips from the scheme
Everybody in Britain that's been on Jeremy Kyle or lives in a scheme has a dreadful accent. Accent is largely dependent on class, lower class having shit tier accents and middle class having normal understandable accents. This is always the case across the UK.

English
>>
I like chav accent. it's funny and full of character
also like scottish in trainspotting.
>>
>>59899732
"understandable" accents and received pronunciation crap are almost always the worst though. I appreciated such accents when learning English for movies and TV shows but any accent where you can't tell where the person speaking is from is utter trash. I like culture and regional affiliation, it makes people interesting. Speaking like a television presenter is not.
>>
>>59899847
Kinda weird listening to this as an American t b h lad. Very, very treasonous music.
>>
>English people actually have different accents
Ha ha, that's so weird.
>>
>>59899103
Here I am more bothered by the Dutch accent the interviewer has. I can always hear it, no matter how good the Dutch generally believe their English is
>>
>>59900356
do france not have regional differences?
I know evne american people have completly different accents based on different states.
>>
Yorkshire/Roadman accent
>>
Essex or welsh
>>
>>59900453
Yes of course We have some fucking accents especially in south
>>
>>59900453
France is almost completely culturally centralized, and they've pretty much wiped out every regional language or dialect in favor of Parisian French. It's actually very sad.
>>
>>59899732
people are mostly just referring to thick council estate scots spoken in parts of glasgow and the surrounding counties
>>
>>59899915
>chav accent
this doesn't exist

Poland > Czech Republic I mean.

this is very true, but the reason why we don't have very many regional accent variations is because our borders have changed and our populations have moved so much. There are some like Silesian where it sounds very funny, but mostly we do not have many differences in speech. As far as I know regional languages like Kashubian are protected though.

Well it's a good thing, honestly.
>>
>>59901809
of course. You should really do the same, although I realize it's very difficult to change the constitution which is what prevents it.

Well some local languages are already protected (Breton, Basque). But, honestly, they are disappearing. And it's a shame. Glad you guys have some consciousness.

Anything considered "northern" is a plague on the ears. To narrow it down, Liverpool, Essex, Birmingham and Welsh are the worst offenders. Scottish accent on women is disgusting also. Thick southern also but you only hear that in old people now really
>>
>>59907075
The Mancunian accent is one of my favorites though.

Considering that southern accents are essentially what's left over from British accents, then yes

Fucking Britbongs ruined the world; now the job has fallen to us
