Accents!
Hi all,
I would like to discuss the topic of accents (without offending anybody of course); that is, accents being spoken in the English language. Which accents do you prefer? And for those with a foreign accent, do you like or dislike this about yourself?
I personally like all foreign accents and enjoy hearing non-native speakers speak English. I have a particular penchant for Spanish/Italian and Turkish accents. Arab accents are nice too. But the best accent no doubt has to be the Nigerian accent!
What is (or are) yours?

I like Soutern American accent and Australian one. These are the best , as for me
About foreign accents:
Indian one is the worst in the world. It 's not listenable, and even if his/her grammar is perfect you can't understand him at all.

As long as native speakers can understand what I'm saying I don't have a problem with my foreign accent. However I've trying really hard to reduce it because I think it's easier to speak with confidence if you can adopt the accent of the native speakers you're talking to.
My favorite accent is the New York/New England one.
