Like the title says, can you do accents? Or do you have an accent?
Also, this thread might be a bit stereotypical because we're talking about accents, but I don't mean any offense or hard feelings

For myself, I have a normal accent of... UK. North Britain to be more exact. I've never been to the UK, so not sure how I got it myself, but now I can't drop it.

As for other accents, my voice is very flexible. So far I can do a good, convincing accent of:
-Mexican
-Various American accents
-Scottish
-French
-Irish
-Various British accents
-Native Indian
-Indian
-German
-Korean
-Japanese
-Chinese
-African-American
-Finnish

And I think that's about it. I might want to become a voice actor, which is why I train my voice a lot to do stuff like this.
What about you guys?

I don't really practice for a specific reason, but I'm fairly good at replicating many accents. I wouldn't know a full list, but I've been able to duplicate quite a few.

It's always 'on the spot' though. I don't have a reason to record myself doing specific accents, so I don't. I usually use the accents in conversations where I'm just acting weird, or to prank people.

Also, I can apparently sing with a bit of an accent. I've been told my country music accent isn't bad, despite the fact that I dislike most country music and never listen to it.

I am terrible at this, mostly because I'm kind of bad at hearing my own voice so I can't do any accents at all unless someone tells me that I was doing it.

Well, so far, I think I don't replicate the English accent, No matter how hard I try, my natural Spanish accent is always there.

I can do good accents for French, and maybe also Italian and German. Of course, any Spanish-derived accent is easy for me. When I start learning foreign languages maybe I can get more convincing accents. It's just that I hate how the Spanish accent sounds, specially in English, as nearly all of our athletes have displayed.

A lot of times I feel like people THINK they can do other accents better than they actually can ;-) At least in my experience.

As far as myself personally. I don't feel like I can do that many accents very well. I could probably pull off a "Southern" US type accent, because that's pretty basic. Aside from that, I probably couldn't do many others very well. Just because I don't practice. The art of imitation is only really honed by lots of practice.

I can do a "Southern US" accent, as well as an okay Russian/Slavic, Australian, and Teenage Girl from California. I'm sure with enough practice I could do a lot more. But those I have the most fun with. xP

I guess to anyone who doesn't live in Canada I'd have a Canadian accent :p But to be more serious, I can talk like a southerner if need be or, appearently, an East Indian. Which is weird becuase I don't know or really ever converse with any East Indians... Basically, my only example for that accent is Apu and I don't watch the Simpsons. That's what I end up sounding like when I try to pull off other accents though, according to whoever I'm speaking with.

I can't always do it right, but I can do a very good Australian accent. I can also do a pretty good Mexican accent most of the time I try to do it. That's probably because of taking Spanish class for 2 years XD

I've tried doing an English accent before, but I've failed miserably. I've done a fake southern accent before. Other than that, I can't do any accents... I can speak Wookie quite fluently though lol!

I am pretty apt at imitating others speaking French. Other than my regular Quebec accent, I can imitate the "French minority" accent (French speakers living West of the Ottawa River), the French accent (from France), the English accent and the Spanish accent.

I can also imitate the French speaking English (they pronounce th as z) and the "general" Eastern European accent by rrrrrrrrrrrrrrolling the r. Because I heard so many talk that way I can imitate some Southern (You gotta do what you gotta do, y'all) and Indian phrases, but they might sound a little insulting.

For the most part, I'm pretty gosh darn awful at accents and I know it. I can sort of kind of do a British accent? I think the only other accent where I come even close is Australian, but half the time it sounds more british anyways!

maguc : I guess I can do an English accent, maybe a Spanish accent too. I have a standard/Midwest accent, but I'm from the South, so I can do a pretty good southern accent. I can do the Canadian dialect everybody makes fun of. Maybe Russian accent. I can do the Californian surfer dude accent. I could try Australian, but it might be offensive. I also might be able to do an Irish accent. I really dunno.

Ferdinand : That Canadian "accent" is blown out of proportion. I have live 4 years in English Canada and "eh" is NOT as common as Americans would like to believe. The only accent I noticed, and from people from remote rural areas, is "aboat" rather than "about"
