England has a ridiculous amount of accents.

And yet we're only portrayed as speaking like the Royal family...Bourbons3

With no pun intended..

According to Swedes everyone in England is a snob. We love stereotypes :P

yeah, most of the accents in england sound really different. The cockney accent sounds different from the west country or norfolk accent.

Scouse, Birmingham, Mancunion, Geordie, West Country, Cockney....yep there's loads.Mercury88

I think there are more accents in england than in the U.S, which is surprising since england is so much smaller than the U.S

South london and cockney? whats the difference?

Yeah theres a huge amount of variety in accents in the UK. I can literally travel about 10mins from where i live & the accent will be notably different.

Probably has something to do with the fact that many of these accents developed when communities were relatively isolated before the industrial revolution & boom in transport.

Northern, really frank and to the point news anchor type.

Southern, really hick sounding and sometimes confused with plain red neck.

Eastern, Very staunch and sometimes loud.

Western, sounds a little bit southern but really is more cowboy sounding.

Westcoast, slow paced chill or frantic and urgent but still chill.

Then every person has their own accent based on what country they came from and which area they learned English in....plus you have the myriad of odd places like Michigan where people say A's weird. Like wAAHshing the dishes.

Or Montana.....

I have lived in england for the first 5 years of my life and have been going back there every summer since, and even though i am from there I notice there is a huge amount of accents there. From the south london accent, to the west country accent to the cockney accent. Different parts of london have different accents, and they all sound different is the cool thing.Film-Guy

that's nice.

im talking baout local accents, theres a difference between speaking english with another countries accent and having a accent from the country you live in. So tecnically england has more accents.

Indeed, even though there is a good 50 different accents that i can think of i know theres more, being from west yorkshire and living in huddersfield, about 20 miles away from me in leeds people talk differently, the difference isnt huge but its noticable
