<<< another Californian with a hard-to-pin accent. Mother grew up in Kentucky, father grew up in SoCal, so my acccent is a bit bizzare, and for some reason no one can determine, my speech patterns tend to be more upper crust British than American. Sometime I even slip into British habits in spelling words like colour and behaviour.
Go figure. I have no clue. But I can speak with a very good British accent; so good that I fooled a native Brit and her husband. They got a kick out of it. But then, whenever I have learned a bit of a language for the purpose of travelling, I speak with very little American accent, so I have been told. I am a natural mimic.
