Lilly's vs. Akira's accent?

[archon536]

Well, accents can, with time, be easily faked or got rid of

No, they can be replaced with a different accent. You'll still sound like an American to a British person. You can't not have an accent because people from different countries say words in a different way.

There exists a speech pattern called "Neutral American English" which means you pronounce all the words exactly the way they are prescribed in the dictionary, perform no speech inflections, and speak in complete monotone. Yes, it is possible to not have an accent. We might sound like an American to a British person because we don't speak British English. That's why lots of times websites will differentiate between American English and British English. Now, if you want to try speaking without a DIALECT, however, that is impossible. And, no, contrary to what people might believe, the two are NOT the same thing.

Neutral American English is just another yank accent.

Now BBC English. That's blank with no accent.

You crazy? We can pick the pitch of BBC english from over here.

CBD Auckland english, I've found, is just drawl, no inflection.
