What accent do you have? Mine is a strong cockney-sounding accent.
I am surprised how much northerners liked it when living up there, plus Scottish and Irish compliment it a lot.
Only some posh southerners do not like it but I don’t care  |

"I'd describe K as soft scouse, I'm a hotch-potch of northern and home counties
C"
I’m the same. I’m an army brat so we moved all over the place but settled in Liverpool because it’s my dads home town. |

I've got a soft pan-Northern brogue. Most guess Manc but it's just I've moved around a lot.
Always had compliments on it although the odd prat thinks it's funny to impersonate. If I had a quid for every lock stock quote... |

Mrs KC - generic northern English, but allegedly a hint of Welsh can still be detected by some
Mr KC - a weird mix of a specific northern town plus some north Cumbrian that he seems to have inherited
We both sound bizarre  |

Yorkshire so people round here tell me anyway (living in Lincolnshire at the moment); when I am at home and in particular when I am talking to much more broad Yorkshire folks my accent gets more noticeable and I do fall into the occasional use of dialect; but try not to round here as no one has any idea what I am on about if I do.
No one knew what a 'ginnel' was nor did the understand what was happening when it was 'siling down'.

We have ginnels here in a north west town too. Very few seem to have heard of them outside the area! |

I speak with contemporary RP or "posh" as I'm told.
Thick Yorkshire and Cockney accents are my favourite. I literally melt and my pussy twitches when I hear them. |

I dont have an accent

"Nordie Irish "
What a gorgeous accent. You'd make reading a phone book* sound sexy.
*For our younger viewers, a phone book is what we had before mobile phones stored all your numbers. Literally a thick book filled with addresses and numbers, potentially the most boring piece of literature available to mankind. |

What sort makes you go weak?
I always find “Uber assertive crooked copper” telling me to drop the TV as I back out of a window makes me go wobbly  |

Derbyshire village |
Mr is Derbyshire mixed with Yorkshire and Mrs is from Surrey.
We're not quite sure how we even understand each other.
We say words like 'duck' very differently and she pronounces her A's as R's, the weirdo. |

Years ago, when asking for directions in a Midlands town, I was told do go 'past the jitty'.
i gather that has a similar meaning but it meant nothing to me at the time. I never heard the word used before or since and just googled it since reading this thread.
my own accent was vair vair mi'l class derived from a mix of public school/ RAF officer from my childhood but has got got tainted from working in a SE London comprehensive school for 27 years so I'm 'arf fluent in 'Inarf, carnarf, dinnarf, sharnarf, noddarf' lingo if I need to blend in locally! |

I guess mine is London accent, originally from Bedford, lived in Luton many years, both these towns have a lot of London influence compared to the rural areas surrounding, from Londoners migrating. I now live in Corby, and half the town sound Glaswegian and consumes the most Irn-Bru outside Scotland. |

I’ve lived all over (not just over the Uk but also overseas), so no discernible regional accent, although certain words or phrases come out sounding really regional, but there’s no consistency. I can sound Midlands and Aussie in the same sentence.
Top accents to get me off are Aussie, South African, Geordie, Scouse and Soft Irish. |
