If there is one, which American accent do you think is the most sophisticated, nice sounding?

Question

& if you leave an answer could you tell us where you're from

Answer 1

I agree, the 'no accent' accent sounds best to me. It's funny to say, because there are very many accents in America that are a blast to listen to: Maine, Boston, New Orleans, Atlanta, North Dakota, (guess I've had enough of Texas ;-)), Oklahoma, New York, New Jersey, SoCal, NoCal and many more...

although the 'Cals' are closest to no accent, in my opinion.

And yeah, West Coast.

Answer 2

The best American accent is no accent at all. Just about any other American accent can mark you as a snooty person from Boston or poor trash from the south.

When I lived in England I developed a "Mid-Atlantic" accent and used it in England and elsewhere in Europe. I can speak a number of languages but, when in America, I strive to use an accent free speech... and I have never had anyone guess that I was born and raised in Missouri

Answer 3

i prefer the 'non-accent' radio announcers accent, which is a hybrid between mid-atlantic and mid-west.

i'm from long island, new york, don't sound like 'the nanny', but then, i had speech lessons for 8 years, to correct a lisp and stuttering/stammering.

i think it's cool that i can generally not give away my origins. plus, i can copy most accents after being around them for a half hour.

Answer 4

I like standard American English as spoken by most newscasters.
Its simple, clear, and can be understood by any American anywhere.
I was born in Brooklyn, NY, and I don't sound like Fran Fine, on The Nanny. Shes from Queens.
