Answer 1

You should be an actress. Look how well Maryl Streep did because of her ability to mimic accents.

I think I do pretty well with a generic southern. I slip into it immediately when I hear someone speaking in it. I also think I do okay with Andaluz, in Spanish, and can sometimes (depending on who I am surrounded by) do a Mexican learning English, And British, a couple of different ones.
And French. I think that's easy. I usually only do it on purpose to make a point, though, except for those instances when it's kinda natural.

Answer 2

I can imitate American, British, Philippine, German, French, Indian, Chinese, and Latin. My favs are American, British, German and Chinese. The funniest accents for me are Indian (because of the low voice) and Chinese (because I speak it very fast).
(I am a Filipino)

Answer 3

I love imitating British accents- both the upper-class accent and even better the cockney accents.

I also can do pretty good Mexican, Cuban (think "Scarface", mang!), Costa Rican, Italian, Irish, Australian and Scandinavian accents. And I enjoy doing a good guttural French accent, with a good lascivious French grunt (you know what I mean..."wi, monsieur, she is a most beautiful lady [appreciate French grunting noise] *wink*)

Lots of fun American accents too- Boston, New York, Chicago, southern, and Minnesota/Wisconsin ("Ya shure, ya betcha") accents.

I love imitating accents.

Answer 4

English (West Country (go to youtube and type in Wurzels), London (all variants), Mancunian, Northern, Geordie, Scouse and Lancashire), Scottish (generic), Welsh (generic), Irish, German, American (north), Polish, Dutch, Italian, Spanish, Australian, Russian, Swedish (or maybe it's Norwegian).

I think that's all...

Answer 5

I was feeling pretty smug until I ran across Josh's post. That's a lot of accents !

I do zee Frensh and der Chermann at Dickens Fair. I try to do Ruskie and Romanian.

I guess I'm just lucky to do "alive" ....

Answer 6

An Asian accent. I can really sound like a guy that speaks very little English. I guess it doesn't matter, though. Most people assume that about me anyway.

Answer 7

I can do a killer british accent. I also have a really great think southern accent that I can do (in real life I have a slight southern accent).

Answer 8

I can imitate Jimmy Doohan imitating a scottsman. I do a bunch of politically incorrect ones too.

Answer 9

French, British, latino, hawaiian,jamaican, haitian, jewish, pirate, Bill Clinton, Bush,...I can do alot but my favorite is middle eastern.

Answer 10

Most of them.
