    That’s what it is. I’ve always been able to tell a distinct difference between the British English accent, and the South African English accent, even though they’re almost identical. You speak English with a happy accent.

      Genuine question here from a place of interest, what do you count as a British Accent? Is there like an actor or someone with an example?

      I’m Scottish and for such a wee country (meaning both Scotland and also the UK) we have such a wide variety of accents I am always interested when someone says ‘British Accent’ as the difference between south Wales to Newcastle to Essex to Aberdeen are chalk and cheese to me.
