    You're trolling but there actually might be something to it.

    Black/Hispanic Americans are the best example. It's really easy for me to tell if a Pakistani or black that was born and raised in England is speaking without looking at them, then again the west is still pretty segregated and specific dialects can form because of this, so still might be entirely cultural.
    The Guanche skulls as a whole are unlike those of modern European Mediterraneans, and resemble northern European series most closely, especially those in which a brachycephalic element is present, as in Burgundian and Alemanni series.
    divided them into clearly differentiated types, which include a Mediterranean, a Nordic, a "Guanche," and an Alpine. The "Guanche" accounts for 50 per cent of the whole on the four islands of Teneriffe, Gomera, Gran Canaria, and Hierro; the Nordic for 31 per cent, the Mediterranean for 13 per cent, and the Alpine

    IQ is more genetic and it seems you got the lower spectrum. No offense of course.

    You think British Blacks and Asians speak different from the white British even if they were born in England and went to school there?

    Accent isn't, but voice is.

    Different physiology.

    Georgians have some mongol-like accent, maybe due the mongolian invasion.

    I don't think you're serious, but let me just say this:
    No, it's not genetics. It depends on the area you're living in and where your parents are from (and if they've retained the accent from the area they're from).
    For example, my friend was born in the U.S., but her parents are from India and they have retained their original accent because they moved to the U.S. in their late adult years. Because of this, her accent sounds slightly different from the accent of her peers, but not by much.
