What accent do you have?

[nupnup]

Just that!

I'll start.

I have a mixed south London accent come Surrey accent.
I basically queens English with a slight chav twang.
Born and raised in south London, moved to Surrey in my teens. It's helped my vocabulary tremendously.

What accent do you have?

I've lived in Sussex for over 20 years but still regularly get asked what part of London I'm from.
I was born and lived in South London for 25 years.

Northern Irish accent. I'm not the type of person who easily loses their accent!

I don't sound like someone from Londonderry or Fermanagh though. Most people outside NI think of Belfast, but not quite!

Brummie. I've been told it's only a soft lilt though. I work on the phone to customers and get complimented on it quite regularly. I personally think I sound bloody awful 😂

It's "Code Switching".
I have a friend from Sunderland, she sounds very bland BBC English usually, but chatting to her sister or mother her accent is completely different and I don't think she realises it's happening.

Is Chiswick a posh sort of accent or just RP/media?

Welsh 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Black Country but not broad after living in Essex for 30 years. Unless I’m drunk or on the phone to my mom.

But I bay a brunmie

American.

Similar to you, I'd imagine...born and raised in SE London before moving to Bromley aged 12 and then living in Beckenham for years and now I live in Surrey!

A bit "Karl Pilkington" but slightly posher 😃

Posh af

West Yorkshire - Huddersfield, specifically. Broad as you like.

I’ve lived (with my American DH) in the USA, Germany, London and Scotland and haven’t set foot in Yorkshire for 42 years. Everyone I meet says ‘oooh, you haven’t lost your accent have you??!’ Even I find it strange.

Pass
Northern people pick up that I'm not originally from here, southern people think I'm very broad northern
Mostly Bolton with a bit of Preston thrown in
Add to that Torquay, Bristol and Oxford and.. yeah

I sound like someone from Neighbours as I grew up watching it.

Seriously, I'm asked if I'm from Australia a lot 🤣.

@Waitingfordoggo I have a Sussex accent. Some words I say are really broad.

No one has ever managed to work out where I came from by my voice. It’s weirdly posh, has been from a very young age. From a working class family from South London so no idea why.
Have to say, it’s served me well. Been told several times that I ought to work in broadcasting 🤷‍♀️

I read everyone’s accent on mumsnet as my own

Norn irish but a mix of different areas. I sound just norn irish to most but anybody from home can usually detect a mix of where I lived.

West London, I’ve lived in Brighton for years but definitely haven’t picked up the accent.

Same. Ive listened to the estuary accent on youtube and thats definitely me

South / West Yorkshire, although softer than it used to be since moving slightly more north (within Yorkshire).

Well spoken South East .

Old fashioned RP.
