Solihull and Brentwood |
Agreeing with mostly everyone else on here in that brummie is the worst. Also that in addition to scouse, I love a Geordie and Welsh accent....thinking of Gladys Pugh, made me go all weak at the knees.  |

"Best - Scouse
Worst - Essex / Northern Irish"
Question can you quantify which area of Northern Ireland you mean as we don’t all sound the same a like all countries round the globe lots of different accents within 1 country. |

I quite like the Brummie accent!
Myself, I've been told that my accent makes it sound like I should be commanding a Victorian army unit. I took that as a compliment, I think!
Best: Southern Irish
Worst: Somerset |

Best: mine, naturally.
Worst: not a regional thing, but that lazy, long, open-mouthed, dragged-out-vowels Estuary English that infects so many suburbanites in the South of England. Rare in London itself now, thank heavens. No-one in London has time for elongated vowels. |

Lot of love/hate for the scouse accent here haha. I think it depends on the person and where in Liverpool they are from personally. There's a distinct difference between North and South. And then there's this new over the top forced one the kids all do haha.
Anyway, I don't really have a preference on accents. It's more how the person projects it for me. |

Accents, dialects, broques and other regional and national forms of speech are all of equal value to me, but some are almost incomprehensible, although these are increasingly rare as people are exposed to external influenced that result in a form of homogenised English, almost devoid of an accent or dialect.
The most amusing form of spoken English is RP, that used to the standard form on the BBC, in the era of Lord Reith. |

Best accent - Most European/ NZ/ Aus/ Real thick southern American drawl.
Worst: most of England
I hate my accent because it's this.. mash up of west country Wiltshire that makes me sound like I'm 60 not 30 odd and because I talk to so many Americans it's deformed into a hybrid that confuses most people around me.
