    Standard Serbian accent is ridiculed by almost everyone. Only national TV use it.

    ?

    I disagree. West Serbian is standard Serbian accent and majority use it (except Vojvodina and south).

    I don't think there is a real accent difference anymore. (only in certain counties like Szabolcs). They don't talk any different in Szombathely than in Budapest. Only real difference is certain loanwords obviously.
    And as I learned, the "standard accent" which is spoken almost everywhere is not from Budapest.

    Random students from Szombathely. Some may even be from more rural areas... No real difference to standard Hungarian.

    I was reffering to dialect.
    Examples they are speaking about are really of minimal difference in my opinion and in most cases I think I have accent as the one they reffer to as correct one. Or I use both.

    Fairly common. Most people speak rigsdansk (standard Danish), which is a mixture of high and low křbenhavnsk (Copenhagen dialect). Other dialects are dying out with the older generation.
    Spoiler!
