<<My guess is someone foreign, probably American as no British person would refer to the Times as the London Times!>>

Yep...a dead giveaway. ;-)

Now that we've got that cleared up, I think this whole fake article debacle should be deleted.

Just try to get an irish tape to help you. thanks for listening. hope i helped you.........

Try speaking a Southern US accent really, really fast.

Oh dannyboy, I'll assume you are from the North or Donegal or Monaghan.

Is Accent and Dialect a global problem?

Well, Adam, british accent is well, irish is better...

It is hard to learn to speak with an Irish accent. I think that you have to be around an area where they speak Irish all the time, because it has been proven that the Irish accent is the most difficult accent in the whole UK, however I suggest that you should go to Ireland for a holiday as it is easier to pick up accents that way better. Hope my suggestion helps to those who really really want to speak that way.

Whoever want to change their natural accent has a big issue i believe.

why can you not just speak with your own accent... the accent that you have been brought up with. Your own accent is part of you part of who you are identified as why on earth would you want to change that. I believe that you are not happy with yourself who you are and hence want to change. It is utterly absurd.
i am sorry for those whom i offend with my judgment but this is how I critize people like that.

Just because you want to speak with an Irish or a different accent that doesn't mean you are "utterly absurd" as you have perfectly stated above or that you are not happy with yourself, because trust me I love the way I speak, but also would love to speak with a different accent that I also favor like Irish. I do agree that your accent is part of who you are, but none of us say that we dislike our accent or wish we could get rid of it.
Jhon just do me a favor next time think of your judgements before you state them.

uhm.... what was i going to say........Oh yh sorry if I may overcome arrogant, but this is the truth sorry.

I think accents are fun, but I'd never want to change mine permanantly. Language is really interesing, its fun to be able to impersonate (always in good taste though, of course)

I just wanted to say, although Americans are stereotypically lazy and stupid and superficial, doesn't mean we are all like that, granted many are. It is the same with saying that every French person is selfish, everyone from Yorkshire is thick, everyone from Ireland is a drunk, everyone from Poland is stupid, Mexicans steal...etc.. they're all just stereotypes. Everyone knows that stereotyping isn't a great thing, but we all continue to do it anyway, especially to foreigners. If people want to talk in a different accent, fine, thats their problem, regardless of other people's opinions. No person from one country will be any better than someone from another at speaking with a foreign accent based on where they live.

Funny, except for "upsturs" all the pronunciations you listed are how I speak--and I'm American.

"I kinda like the Scottish accent in a weird way."

Oh dear god. Never saw that coming. I think a zombie took over Adam and devoured his mind.
