Oooo, mine. Sort-of. I have a continental accent, which just means I sound almost Canadian but slightly British/Scottish. I am shy/quiet, but I've actually had compliments about my accent.

The First one had a great husky accent, Picard has the most amazing one, The third one seemed so faux though, Canadian accents are great though, So friendly

Irish accents are lovely. I've lived in Scotland (south), so I do have a slight accent still. I like northern Scottish accents with the rolled r's.

My mom is from Central America, yet many people believe she speaks with a Welsh or Kiwi accent.

Will someone please explain how can a Central American accent be mistaken for a Welsh accent or a Kiwi accent?

I'm trying to imagine myself as a Brit. It's strange.

Spoken like a true American. I don't understand why they like British or Australian accents so much.

I might say Chinese, but there's most likely a bias (I am from China) and it can sound especially harsh for no reason sometimes (source: my parents). am more comfortable with English because that's what I learned at school.

Japanese, hmmm... Anime-like, 3 swears can mean the same word, any takers?

NOLA Yat sounds similar to Brooklynese.
