Cornish and Devonian are nothing like the Somerset and Bristolian accents. :nono:

Liverpool and Essex.

One thing I don't get is being from the Black Country, why do people confuse our accent with Brummies? The 2 accents seem similar, although they are different:joker:.

Well I was looking for Northern Irish and the only one there was Belfast so I went for that. Sorry!

I lived in London for a couple of years, I didn't actually go very far outside of London when I was there though :laugh:

If I'm going to get on a plane to go somewhere I'd rather chase the sun!

Scouse. Even though I'm from Liverpool myself, the accents are very "rough" and irritating to listen to, even though I'm quite Scouse. :laugh2: Erm, I'm not too keen on the chavvy Mancunians, either. Most of the time, I haven't a clue what they're on about. :bored:

Nothing wrong with Brummie. :conf2:

I don't even know where that is on the poll - but yes the kind of Posh sounding accent.

People say I sound posh but I'm not and I don't look down on people :(

Most UK accents aren't great really, apart from Geordie which is alright, and the Gloucestershire one

Marc 04-04-2012 03:39 PM

Glouc and Berkshire/country just sound the same to me :shrug:

The Scottish accent is the greatest accent in the world

My current accent. I've been told I have a thick Essex/Cockney accent but told but others it's just northern, which is weird. I'm a mix between the two, I guess.

Callum 21-05-2012 11:32 PM

South Wales, the "valleys" accent as it's known here. Most people from Swansea have it, too. Even though I was born in Wales I am so grateful that I do not have the horrible South Wales accent because I hate it.

Mrluvaluva 21-05-2012 11:34 PM

A Scouse/Essex/Cockney mix? How do you talk Redway? Lol. Shat up. Keep your Brenda Frickers on. That was like boss la. Sound...That's a bit of a mix.

Maia 21-05-2012 11:39 PM

Geordie tbh

:joker: It's definitely a weird accent, although I can put on either one of those accents on its own.

Redway 21-05-2012 11:45 PM

Lancaster/Lanchsire accents should be on the poll, too. I actually can't stand all that "oop noorth/narwth' nonsense. Honestly so annoying.

Marsh. 22-05-2012 12:11 AM

Brummie. Just an annoying sound all round. An external auditor came into work a while ago from Birmingham. Lovely fella but I did get sick of the accent.

The other would be Essex, epitomised by the awful Amy Childs and the rest. If everyone from Essex doesn't sound like those idiots then apologies, but in general, that one.

Bollo 22-05-2012 05:46 PM

Glaswegian or Mancunian... I just can't understand what they are saying at all
