    No particular accent, it's for example what a Parisian and someone from Lyon would consider as neutral French.
    speaking and acting like a true Marseillais

    I prefer Toulouse or Bordeaux accent

    I speak North-Central American English as my native language, with very minor input from my parents accents of Central California English. You probably know this as a "Minnesota" or a "Wisconsin" accent.

    Mom spoke Guatemalan Spanish at home, but most of my childhood interaction with Spanish was from my Mexican family, so I speak Spanish with a Central Mexican accent.

    When speaking other languages, the Great Lakes/"Wisconsin" accent is the one that comes out.

    In Polish: generic standard Polish accent / intonation so neutral. One of my friend who studied for few years in Britain started speaking in Polish with detectable British accent but one girl / my cousin who also spent there few years speaks Polish without any accent of this sort. I remember though that after coming back from France where I spent few months in a row I was speaking in Polish with weird accent for one week - accenting words on lasy syllable even, huh.

    In English: trying to speak with UK pronunciation but surely my Polish also comes out in it. I also read here after posting my English accent in accent thread that I sound bit German when speaking English.

    I sound like a typical white guy with no specific accent whatsoever.

    Usually people say I have Norman accent, hard to describe how it sounds for you.

    You all should Vocaroo in order we can hear your specific accent

    I have a mix of a cultivated/standard Australian accent, there is no real regional variance between the different cities, despite what foreigners may think.. for instance, i was often asked if i was from Adelaide because of some word pronunciation.. nope. But i can easily imitate a flat British English accent, when i want to be a troll...
