Non-Native English speakers.
Did you think we all sounded alike before you learned English (British, American, Australian, etc.)
Do you still think so?
I couln't understand shit, but pretty much yeah. You kinda sounded the same.
I'm studying english phonetics currently so I can't tell the difference pretty well I guess, but before that I used to think like this:
>British
Slower and slightly more retarded than "normal" english.
>American
Regular english
>Australian
This isn't even the same language

I'm learning French and can't really tell the difference between most accents, but I think the accent of people from Cameroon is sexy

A question, do spanish accents sound alike to you? Like, spaniard accent, argentinan, chilean, etc.

I think Cubans sound like they're retarded, drunk or something, but other than that no.

They all sound alike to me, but I have very limited experience with Spanish speakers.

African French is pretty difficult to understand imo. I can't really tell them apart, generally the South Africans are easier to understand.
Quebecois is pretty distinctive. Vietfrench is a thing unto itself, although it's got pretty uncommon. Sometimes you hear it in Quebec, which is neat.
There's not much point in trying to grill out the differences between accents when you're just starting to learn the language though. I don't see why it couldn't wait.

I am also trying to learn Parisian French well before I worry about accents, so it's not like it matters to me right now.
