| American Or Britain English, Which Accent Do U Prefer? by Nobody: 10:09pm On Dec 21, 2014 |
by default we all are sopose to be speaking in britain accent to speak british english because the colonised us, but we sent them away to early to learn more things from them. Some schools even had a class for british accent speaking, in my high sch it was called queens english. But then most nigerians mix up british with american english in both words and accent. Most times, american. But if you really wanted to pick just one accent so u dont mix them up and end up looking like a learner, what accent would you choose? Personally i love the british accent and i would had loved to speak like that for ever, i loved it more when i watched Need For Speed (the movie) the british lady in the movie was awesome! So what are your thoughts? |

Hollywood has commonised the American accent, I so love British accent, when I manage to lay my hands on a British movie or series, the most interesting part for me is usually the accent. |
