    Is crazy as crazy can be,

    For she calls a tomarto tomata

    And says that a zed is a zee.


  2. I agree with Lex here.  There are many accents and some make you cringe.  

    Boston and Charleson (though very different are great accents).  They say the Bostonian accent (maybe not if you're from Charlestown - hahaha) is closest to the original English accent from the beginning English settlers.

    The Charleston accent is very beautiful and not at all hokey or country.  

    I've lived in both places and think the accents are pleasant!

    If you want to learn to be a news anchor, though, you better stick to just the "official" pronounciation rules :)

  3. With time, you'll learn the American accent. Don't worry.

    Every region is different, and what you may hear in one part of America, you won't hear in another. The dialect really does change, but America is a large country. Some call it soda; others call it pop. It means the same thing, it's just regional.

    As for pronunciation-- it can be really easy or difficult.It depends.

    The only language you can truly speak is the one that you know when you are born.

    You cant teach yourself how to speak with an American accent like you could teach yourself how to speak englsh. Accents are inherited, not taught.

    Record a sentence spoken with the accent you wish to emulate. Then record your own voice speaking that sentence. Listen and compare, correcting yourself along the way. Continue until you are satisfied with the results.

    i guess an accent comes with time once being around persons who speak in such tone, after time you may pick it up.

    If you are reading alone, read out loud. When you are speaking with others, don't worry about your accent. Let your words flow naturally. We all have our own natural vocal tone. Be proud of yours.

    Well, maybe when you practice you could talk to a person who speaks with an American accent. This might help you to obtain a smoother one yourself. Good luck!
