 Re: British English or American accent?
American accent was considerably easier for me to understand.
(I've only been to New York and Delaware - I don't know about West Coast, southern States etc.)
It's flat, while British accent is not, and the English tend to swallow a lot of sounds.
(Scottish or Irish accent is not any easier to me, for obvious reasons.)
Surprisingly or not, it also worked the other way round for me - Americans seemed to be more comfortable with my slavonic accent than the English. |
