British accents
#4
RE: British accents
Non-English person here (Kraut disklaimer),

So you covered Geordies and Cockney (broadly)? What else...the Brummie accent maybe, in Buhminghm. The Manchester area and merseyside seems distinct (think Brian Cox Big Grin)

If England is anything like Germany though (in this respect), there sure are dozens more. Aren't there some areas which sound similar to (have preserved) American style pronunciation as well? I thought Id read something to that effect
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
