I got 70% American and 30% British. 90% Native Speaker. But only 70% American pronunciation. But they can help me sound more American lol.

Although I can't try accent guru until the house wakes up.

I think I sound too "American" and it embarrasses me sometimes. Especially when I say "sorry". I live in Atlantic Canada, where everyone supposedly sounds Scottish or Irish, but that's just yet another stereotype. But it really annoys me when British people think words like "pants" instead of "trousers" or "elevator" instead of "lift" are exclusively American and therefore "wrong". And Canadians usually only spell "color" or "flavor" with a "u" maybe about half the time, but we want others to think we do all the time and not just British people.

I got Japanese this time.

It says I have a British accent, which I do...because I'm British. Essex accent, to be precise.

I did it with my eyes closed so I wouldn't see the words and I spoke in my own words. These are my results.
