I am an American, but I have many British relatives, thus I have an almost perfect Liverpool accent. (My Liverpool is considered "fake" because I was not raised in Liverpool) I do it quite often, but then, when I switch back to my natural American accent, it feels really weird and out of place. I don't really know how to describe it. It is like the British accent is my natural, and the American is the one I am faking. But I don't even feel like I'm faking the Liverpool, I feel like I'm faking the American. I even use all the British slang and what not, even in my American accent, which sometimes sounds really funny! So here is my question, is this weird? I use the Liverpool accent so often, and people ask me where I'm from, so I tell them Arizona, and they don't believe me. But My Liverpool accent feels more natural to me, and I feel like I have to force the American so I rarely ever do it. Am I a complete twit, or am I making a bit of sense to you? Which accent should I stick with?
