I love listening to the folks on the BBC. You must have a really neat accentOriginally Posted by jennyranson
Classic BBC English (I trained as a radio journalist in the days when even regional accents were frowned on!) But it's good now that I am teaching English - everyone says I am the easiest person to understand they have ever met.

I'm from Michigan and when we went down to the Carolina's they thought we talked funny and we thought they talked funny. So I do agree with you!Originally Posted by jennyranson
I just always think it funny when people say things like 'you have an accent' as if THEY don't! When I point out that everyone has an accent they think I'm nuts.
