Best Accent?

[Randy]

Lets debate accents.

Out of all the countries that speak English natively, who has the best accent?

Why is theirs the best? Explain your answer.

That's hard to answer because every country has so many accents within it, and some mix up accents (ie Brits get called Aussies a lot, Aussies get confused with Kiwis a lot and Kiwis get confused with Aussies almost constantly, lol), so it's hard to pinpoint one country has having the best accent, since one country usually means several accents.

I think England has some absolutely amazing accents, like the Geordie accent, the Scouse accent, the Cornwall accent and more, but I could say the same thing about Wales, Scotland and both Irelands, all have amazing accents. South Africa has some great accents, too...really hard to pinpoint which country has the best accent, lol.

Aussies! Just pleasant and comical to listen to; same basic language, but most of us American-English speakers need a translator.

American (West Coast / California) accent is the best. Why? Because its what I've grown up with, its how I talk and it's what I am used to hearing.

We pronounce things the way they should be pronounced. We we don't add extra sounds and syllables that aren't in the word.
