could you guess my accent?

I am an English learner.
I wonder if you can tell what is my nationality by my accent:

Are you french or german or italian or english or scotish or dutch or russian or hungarian. Oh, you are learning english, I beg your pardon, you must be from the USA.

<<Oh, you are learning english, I beg your pardon, you must be from the USA. >>

Not that this can't be true, but more likely than not, if he* was from USA, he'd speak English already. We have foreigners, of course, but there are English-learners all across the globe. So I see no reason that he must be from the USA.

*I'm not sure if you are a girl or a boy since I could not access the sample.

LOL ha ha ... funny!

I'd say you're Russian... Eastern European, at the very least.

I tried, tried, tried... :)

Only a Russian would publish his recording on a ru site.

Jaro,
I publish my recordings on a site that gives me such an access.
What about features of the accent?

Hey incognito,

Clearly, the link doesn’t work for me! I have as yet tried it, many times. So, could go to another site and put up your recording out there? Plus attach the lyrics (this should be a must!).

For example, I’m much more familiar with the Yahoo Briefcase. If you are in agreement, you can create a folder, put the file in it and have it shared with us at Yahoo Briefcase. You will also need to post your: 1/ password, and 2/ Yahoo ID. These two will make the file accessible to all of us.

I would gladly have a closer look at your recording. Even though I’m a native speaker of Polish I hope I can be of some help to you. You can see some information about me in the thread: What’s your English accent like?

I guess you are Russian. If so, you may be surprised to learn that I speak the Russian language a little bit.

Take care

Roger

Excuse me for too many posts:
It's better to click this link and enter the ID and Password mentioned

(maybe better to exchange nicknames - in that case we can give access to each other)

Incognito, I am not able to make the link, due to technical problems. This is because of me. I will get back to you when technology allows it.
