Just as Americans love British English, Many Brits love to hear the American dialect because it's different than what they speak. Americans DO have an accent, and it varies by geographical area just like in England. Someone from the Lake District isn't going to sound like someone in London ... just like someone from Boston isn't going to sound like someone from Texas ... \n\nAlso, based on geography, the dialect changed with the influx of new immigrants into the USA after our independance from England. The East coast has alot of mixed European dialects mixed in with "English" and the south has alot of "Spanish/French" mixed in with English. \n\nBut yes, British accents are Hot, and Scottish accents are even hotter ... just look at Ewan Mcgreggor ;)

In the early 1980's, I visited England with 2 buddies--one from Alabama, one from California, and myself from Pennsylvania. We apparently got off at the wrong subway stop in London. We were lost. We spotted a bobby (policeman) up the block. We asked him for directions. He spoke very fast "high English". My buddy from Alabama asked him to slow down and speak English!!! He told us that it was us bloody yanks that bastardized the Queen's English. My buddy told him that he would be speaking German if it wasn't for us "bloody yanks" saving their country in WWII. I told my buddys to calm down before he throws our bloody a&&es in jail!!!

Hi my duck.\n\nWhich British accent do you like? There's many.  Scouse and Geordie are my faves.  My family all sound like pirates 'cos they're from the Southwest.  I speak R.P. (kind of like the BBC)

Yes, we do, and the funny thing is, it's not just us Aussies. You can do it too. \n\nNext time you ask your dog if it wants to go 'walkies' or tell the cat off for scatching the couch, that's communication. When the dog scratches at the door to go out, that's communication too.\n\nThe animal undertands by your tone and previous experience what you mean, not the words, so an in-depth discussion about the current world political situation is unlikely to raise much of a response, from either cat or dog.

Yes its true. They say it without the 'r' but it sounds like they said it with the 'r'. Its more common with Yorkshiremen and Australians, I think.

Robert said it the most accurately, to my knowledge:\n"It used to be but it has become more accepted in the last few years. Some older people I class myself in this group) still find it dis-tasteful."\nI do say bloody and bloody hell for emphasis, though admittedly it has no bite, though a woman of about 60 that I know has flat told me not to curse when I say it.\nIt goes back, I think, past the old childhood game, "Bloody Mary."\nBut with my age group, all sorts of swears have not real bite like they did at one time. I can tell someone my age (a mate) to F--off and it is taken as a joke.  So now we are working on variations as are others\nFark off--Douglas Adams, Hitchhiker's guide\nFeck off-- who knows but sounds better in  mixed company.\nAnd to think, bugger off was at one time a horrible thing to say!\nSo my take, use Bloody Hell with some discrimination to preserve the unique qualities of British Curseword English...\nAnd if you don't agree with me, you can floggle off, Bloody, Blasted W@nker!\n[Being creative can be soo draining].

Phone the environmental health,  your neighbours are breaking the law letting their dog continually bark, if there OK neighbours then you could suggest to them that they fill a spray bottle with water and every time the dog barks spray it, not in its face though, its not cruel and it does work as long as you persevere, you can also suggest they put a few coins in a tin and shake that at the dog every time it barks, hope you get some peace soon, good luck.

They don't sound British, they just sound Affected - which they are.\nWe don't know much about Fraisier and Niles'  mother - perhaps that is where they learned to be such pretentious snobs...

All accents and dialects are fascinating to me. There are some that really jar, but often that's more down to the character of the speaker than anything else.\n\nAccents from cities tend to be harder, harsher relatives of the surrounding rural accents.  The rural accents are usually softer and more pleasing (to my ear, at least).  So, yes, I love the Irish accents (from all parts of Ireland) but tend to dislike the Dublin and Belfast accents; I like the Scots accents, especially from the Isles, but am not so fond of the Glaswegian accent.  Edinburgh is a special case - I am not sure whether I like or dislike it.\n\nWhen it comes down to it, I don't really object to any accent - I think all should be cherished and encouraged!
