I sometimes start speaking in an Indian accent for fun when I get bored of reading things and so I read outloud in an accent.


I sometimes speak in a Canadian, British or Australian accent, and can manage a French or hispanic-sounding accent as well. The best ones I do are "Southern" U.S. accents. There are 4 or 5 of them (different ones from South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and Louisiana), where the "R" can be very hard or very soft (or sometimes dropped altogether). I find accents and regional colloquialisms very interesting.
