In my time at university for theatre, I've been trained in a few different accents. I do New York, English (received pronounciation), Irish, and Southern, as well as passable (but not great) Japanese, French, Greek, and Swedish (when I do the last I sound just like the Swedish Chef). I'm also working on a Middle Eastern accent.
Why am I not an actor again? Oh right, because I'm nice.

I really can't abide English accents. That may be due to my being Scots-Irish and having a thing about what the bloody sassenachs have pulled going back almost 1000 years. You should hear Craig Ferguson sometimes. The bad blood is certainly still evident there.
Then you really, really should be watching "The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson" on CBS. He's from Glasgow. He had Kevin McKidd (Dr. Owen Hunt on "Grey's Anatomy") on last night, he's from Elgin.Quoth Android Kaeli View PostI could listen to Irish and Scottish accents all day and STILL not get tired of listening to them. *sigh*
I had someone convinced one time that I actually was from Scotland....Quoth Jester View PostI can usually imitate most accents I hear. On command, without hearing them, I can slip into a pretty good Irish brogue or a decent Boston accent.

You mean wienerbrød (Viennse Bread)?Quoth Food Lady View PostYou keep saying the word Danish, and now I want a pastry.
Yeah, he's not much to look at, but he's got a GREAT voice!Quoth Pagan View PostThen you really, really should be watching "The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson" on CBS. He's from Glasgow.
Loves me ANY European accent, but has a special place in mine heart for Cardiff Welsh-accented English by way of Cambridge Univ. (The most sexually stimulating intellectual conversation I've ever had was with such a man, who happened to be the grad-student teaching a Victorian Lit class. The topic, curiously, was Sue Bridehead.)Don't wanna; not gonna.

Well, if I would've know that, when you came up here I would've told you all the time that I'm 1/8th Danish and then we could've wandered around to find a decent bakery.Quoth Food Lady View PostYou keep saying the word Danish, and now I want a pastry.

Language lessons, courtesy of SATW Comic. (SFW, but not all archives will be)Quoth Mikkel View PostI'm afraid so. A Swede would say that Danish sound like Swedish spoken with a hot potato in the mouth, but the accents aren't all that different.
